I have found out that i should try to skin an aplication, but which? I am a complete ****ie in xml, dont know a sh##, so it should be a small aplication, that is easy to skin. Anyone got any ideas?
Try Skinning
You can try those little postit applications.
Or the skinnable clocks.
The easiest though would be to create a background for y'z dock.
Oh and winamp 2x is fairly small too.
What is Savanna programmed in? I think that its layout is in XML but is XML just skins? or is it programming too. I liked to learn how to program a app like that or how to make something as good as alilms finder. I don't know where to start. Do you use a program? Do you just open notepad and type pages of code? 
I know for sure they don't type their apps in notepad, try opening it in notepad and see what they would have to type :canadian: Savanna is programmed in Delphi I believe
I know that many apps use XML for the skinning part. I know that XML is the "program language" used to "explain" where the buttons should be and so on. But i also know there are template programs for some programs, that make the XML for you, you just place the images, but i think many programmers hate those programs by som reason. I tried to skin the app called Quicknote, and i think that must be the easiest program to skin ever! It was made up by 3 images, and you just wrote what the images was called in a text-file, and the font and so on, and you were finnished! I dont think other programs are so easy ![]()
i am interested in this delphi? Where can i get it? Is there any site that teaches how to use it?
B3nd1k ... where can i get this xml image placing program?
I only read it in a winamp-skinning tutorial, i never tried it, but i will look after it for you
It was called something with template or something. (I hope i understood right)
EDIT
Found it: Here and it was not quite what i remembered.. You take an image an use one of the built in templates.
Anyone know what Quark does? I think it is something like that. Maybe I am just stupid.
Quark is a high-end press-layout program.
On the original topic, I think Workshelf isn't that hard to skin. Winstep.net offers a even a good tutorial. I once tried to do that, but my abilities at using graphic proggies are just too lame.
Have fun,
