Hi DJLaja

You do not need visaul c++ to make skins.

All you (basically) need is a text editor like notepad and Microsoft Paint.

To make things easier and the graphics look much better you can use:
Notepad2 (for the XML)

Photofiltre (for the graphics), Paint.Net, GIMP, Photoshop (this one isn't free).

This is the skin SDK page, it explains nearly everything about the XML
http://www.virtualdj.com/support/developers/skin.html

The easiest way to start skinning, is to open a skin zip file, and look inside how it is done.

And last but not least, I'm currently working on a Skin Creator tool, that will help all users in writing the XML part.
 
I use XML Marker (free) and Paint.NET (free) to make skin mods ;)
 
ok ok thank you very much , its seems to be complicated but i guess that i will made it with some time , maybe you will see my first skin in a few months. lol .

Last question for the moment , for what do i need c++ then ????????

Thanks and greetings to all from spain

can't wait to check it out... thanks
 
Your NAME Tag across the top is covering the clock. Fix it and it will get posted.

And please do not upload the same skin multiple times, it will not get posted that way either. If you update the skin then you need to update that entry with the new file - do not make another new upload.
 
Uh this was embarasing lol . Im very stupid sometime , hope that it is ok now , sorry for all the trouble .

4 and skin should always be seperated in a sentence or phrase...
