Title: My Hal GUI Skins new home
Post by: Data on April 25, 2010, 07:17:00 am
I spent nearly all day yesterday moving the skins to their new home. You now get to them from the right hand side menu of my site in Ultra Hal Skins. Link below.

Most obvious changes are:

Users can now rate the skins, 1 to 5 stars.

Downloads are now counted, to see which is the most popular.

Any member can now up-load their own GUI skins to the site.

Thank you Lightspeed [:)]

Do you mean the 1958 predicta tv? if you do we have talked about this before, maybe you didn’t see my response, that’s cool, see the link.

http://www.zabaware.com/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=6219&whichpage=2

or are you after something else? I don’t exactly do requests for skins, but for you or any regular member I would give it a shot, when I get the time.

Sybershot,
Yes feel free to up-load your skins, the more we have the better for all, just so you know you will have to join the site to up-load.

Could you also add a screen shot of the skin to the .zip file, that way once you have up-loaded it I will take a copy of the screen shot and add it to the download page, like on the other skins there, so people can see what it looks like. To up-load just goto the Up-Load File link (right hand side of site) and make sure to select the Ultra Hal player skins category.


Lightspeed,
I must admit that picture is strait on but its too low res, I had a little play around but the results are not good and im not happy with it, so we are still after a bigger picture.

Hi,

Would you mind if I put a couple skins or characters on your site? I put so much time into them that it seems like a waste to just keep them to myself on a disc somewhere.
                                                                                                         Thanks-Oog

I don’t mind at all Ooglor 7, go for it. I seam to remember some of your skins, the ones I’ve seen were pretty cool too. [:)]

Post by: Ooglor 7 on April 30, 2010, 06:23:56 am
Cool, thanks. I'll have to track down the characters and skins I have and figure out how to get them uploaded.

GUI skins:

Zip up your GUI and please put a screenshot of the GUI in the zip, then just up-load it to the Ultra Hal Player skins category.


Character skins:

I have made a new category in the picture gallery, so if your character skins are just an image you could put them in there.  

If you want to share characters as .htr files then im going to have to make a new category for them, that’s ok we can do that too. Let me know.

just up-loaded 7 skins on your site, StageHaptekGUI, wiredGUI, whiteWhireGUI, catWalkGUI, GreenOrb, haptechskin, and hearts

I might have have messed up on one called whiteWireGUI it did not  show up under ultra Hal skins page, It might of got sent somewhere else, I'm not sure. I tried to re-upload it but it gave an error.

all previews are inside zip as asked and there marked with the GUI's name followed by the word preview.

Ahh! I found whiteWireGUI in the documents so I’ve moved it to the GUI skins and added all the previews too.

Looking good, [:)]

Datahopa,

Great idea and very helpful and easy the way it is laid out. It's great how others that designed GUI's are all in one location. Certainly makes it easier for new comers. Appreciate your work and everyone else that contributed. Still using your Gui skins today. Just to refresh my memory and maybe some others but with Ultra Hal up-date if anytime soon these GUI's will have no problem with Robert M's new engine ????

Thanks
raybe

It’s a good question raybe, one that I have asked myself and a couple of others about.

This is what I have found out:

Hal will still support Haptek characters, which I believe is our best pointer to the answer of yes the new engine will work with our skins. I’m guessing, hoping that I’m right, but I have been known to get it wrong before.  :-\

Maybe Robert can give a more reliable answer.
Title: Re: My Hal GUI Skins new home
Post by: raybe on September 02, 2010, 09:14:09 am
Datahopa, I remember that also that Haptek would not be a problem and you would still have that option in regards to character compatibility but in that I don't remember anything about all the windows or Gui's. If they also are compatible working in the same environment or do they need to be redone for the Haptek characters only.

I just wish Robert M. would get a friend to post an update more often if he is just to busy, anything would help.

Im trying to be positive about this, not once have I read from Robert that the new Hal will need a new GUI type, and because of that I remain hopeful.

I also hope there is a male character with the new 3d engine, if there isn’t im going to stick with Haptek until one becomes available or until I make one.

I have decided there is no more room in my life for another female that requires constant attention and sweet talk.  ;D
Title: Re: My Hal GUI Skins new home
Post by: raybe on September 11, 2010, 02:05:12 pm
Datahopa but when do you ever think you will have this kind of control over a female.(Again,all the women calm down, only kidding).

The only reason that makes me think that there will only be a female character is the availability and cost. If I remember correctly all of the characters that he was getting opinions on were female and if cost was a problem I don't believe we will have a male option as of yet. Just my opinion. I know as much as I can read and that's it but I do think your right or why keep the Haptek engine available as he did say he would.

 :o two of mine in the top 5 
@Datahopa, I searched for my log-in information for your site, and cant find it :(  . I also can't find my old mail account to retrieve log-in info.
If I find them, I will add Nspire. Feel free to add if you would like it there sooner, I have no clue how long it will take me to find them

Hi all,

I was just looking around, as a newbie, and I found this wonderful site.
And I have this request, but I don't know if you would be able to fill it. This is a picture of what I already have. It is a standard window frame that can be stretched out in all directions.
What I was wondering is it possible to make the same thing but have her tax over the top of her head, leaving my input text at the bottom like it is and putting her in the center.
So when I stretch it out to the side. My input text box and her output text box gets long.
And if I stretch it upward, her face and background picture gets bigger, but she stays in the center of the window.
if You can make her output text two lines in size or even set this so it is adjustable from one line to let say five lines and leaving my input text one line in size.

I don't know if this is possible, but if it is, it would be a dream come true.

Sincerely, thank you in advance.
C load.
