Create your own skins

Okay. So, I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but it still doesn't like my mdpi resolution. Still plain black skin. I wish I was a dev who could look into it and help. The most I can do is try it and report back.

The 3DKey one is good though. Not sure if that fix is related at all.

Could you maybe take a video of the problems, and upload it to you tube, so it would be easier. This is properly a stupid idea though

That won't be necessary... There was indeed a problem in GlossyBlack skin, the file "mod.9.png" was called "mod.9 .png"!
Here is a fixed version

Link, by the way, can you create separate topic for your skins as Zen did? Thanks

[robbiep]

Yes! Works great now. Thank you both. I love the android community.

Please make some nice skins for QVGA with 64k colours !
Thanks

Actually QVGA is not supported at the moment (well, it is, but the images are scaled), I need to add this in a next version

Thanks and here are the new topics:

Troubleshooting tips?

I've made the skin. Followed all directions and compared .xml files of 2 different functioning skins. They are exactly the same. I put the .zip in my skins folder on my directory (I also did the same with a downloaded zip to make sure it wasn't the directory's fault... it showed up fine).

Now it may have something to do with the fact that most of my images are blank, as it's a minimalist keyboard, there aren't really any backgrounds. But that doesn't explain why it wouldn't even show up in the list. I only have drawable in, as i'm just testing it, but best.zip (on page 1) only had drawable and the .xml and it works fine.

Help? Tips? I literally took the names of best.zip for all the files and put an M in front of them, so it can't be an issue with coding, it a looks the exact some just an M in front of all the image paths.

so frustrated...

I'll attach the zip too I guess. I'm not worrying about design at all, just want to see if I can get the damn skins to show up before I spend some time on them, so they aren't anything at all worth looking at unless you're trying to help (please help!)
