WCC Skin: Lucid

Hello fellow WCC users!

Due to popular request, I have decided to post my port of the Lucid 1.2 Rainlendar skin by thechunkster.

(I take no credit for this skin, as all I did was port it)

Lucid Skin for Winamp CD Case

Preview:

This skin can be easily customized to suit your needs. For example, it includes a blank image (blank.png) and 2 different version of nocover and searching (*_white.png and *_black.png), because, even though I like the white text, it was very hard to read on light backgrounds. So feel free to replace them with the black version.

Also, the default nocover.png is blank, because that's how I like it best. If you want a "no cover" message to be displayed on the case, just rename one of the nocover_*.png (* = black / white) to replace nocover.png and you're done.

If that's too complicated, just extract the contents of the attached zip file to: C:Program FilesWinamp CD CaseSkins and it will magically work.

Enjoy it!

Did you get Russel's permission to release this?

#375354

No, and that is why he is mentioned as the author of this skin.

Do you know his email address?

Thank you enjoilax, I thought of that too. Is that even a real email address? Looks like a fake field-filler.

@Julieta: You're welcome, You're welcome

@Danielle: You're welcome.

But I can't take any credit for this

noroom,

I've analysed your skin and I think you should have credit for it.

Lucid was just an inspiration. You had to change the image to get the new skin and made more images to create this original set.

In addition, Russel's work had the deserved credit and his work is also being advertized.

I've also downloaded the Russel's original work. There isn't any use restriction, license or something like that. Not even a copyright note (which we can assume of course).

So, with all respect, I quite didn't understand why enjoilax stop here just to make such question.

Thank you noroom again for the skin!

@noroom: no, that is not just a field filler lol. i think you figured that out when you sent me the email and did not get a "undelivered mail" email in your inbox

@Carlospr: noroom gets credit for the porting, but technically, credit should be given to the original author for whatever part of that porting was his (in this case, the graphics). noroom has done that and -tried- contacting me, i'm guessing immediately after he found out about my email address. whether or not i state copyright or whatever licensing in my readme or elsewhere, the skin/graphics/etc were still made "by me". copyright is assumed (as stated by yourself), credit should always be given, and permission should always be seeked before releasing your own port/modification/etc.

just a few tips for future ports or mods ...don't worry, i'm not a stickler about it, but its just a display of respect for the authors and the effort the put into these skins (imo). what was made took creative thought and the authors of these skins appreciate it when permission is asked for. some authors think it's a crime against nature to not ask for permission and to take full credit, and i don't blame them. it really pisses me off when you see someone take your work and post it, claiming it as their own.

its also a great feeling when you see someone report a work of your own that has been "stolen". i encourage you all to keep an open eye for those stealing work from hard working authors and to report them .

anyway, enough of my rant. noroom, you have my permission. all i ask is a simple placing of my name somewhere in your readme, for example stating i was the original creator of the rainlendar skin. just keep in mind: proper crediting . as i said before, you have the credit of porting it, so you can say "port by noroom" or something like that. anyway, nice job with the port! it looks wonderful

Thanks Russel, it's good to see you're not as uptight as other people.

And don't worry, you're credited as the creator of the skin, and I'm listed as the porter. I knew it had to be like that from the beginning.

Thanks everyone for the nice comments. Happy to see you liked the skin. It looks wonderful sitting next to Rainlendar
