what a beautiful skin! yet another talented Canadian graphic artist.

yeah what people are saying is correct. I remember reading it in his signature that he allows anyone to use his skin components and such as long as there is credit given, which is.

do you think it's possible to make the slider body transparent? I think it would look amazing with this skin.

Mismagius
Amazing. Using this as my new skin.

Really good job sir

Thanks for the feedback, and for those who are wondering Xiao's signature specifically says not to contact him about using skin elements.

Yes, I use a custom skin. Yes, you can use my skins and skin elements for your maps. Stop asking me.

From what I understand you cannot skin the slider body but you can switch between 3 different styles using the .ini file for the skin. Somebody more experienced with making osu! skins may be able to shed some light on how skinning it would work.

Add to skin.ini in [General] for transparent slider.

I understand making skin, but come on, let's make something more original than recreating already existed skin (because it's freaking similar to Xiao's Nexus skin).

Still I don't get this, why people are making ALL parts so minimalistic. Yes, gameplay parts should help people with visibly, but ranking or menu? What? It affects your performance? D:

I don't see anything about using in your skins. :P As far as I know you still should be able to use his elements ^^'

I will address your second point by saying that some people enjoy a more minimalist approach to the look of things. I happen to be one of those people and as stated in the op I created this skin to match my visual style. In order to grant some substance to that statement I will simply link a picture of my desktop from a couple of weeks ago.


So far I'm thinking that a good solution for people who say that this skin is too similar to Nexus would be to redo the mod icons (text only perhaps?) and the spinner circle while removing the text that says performance graph from the score screen.

I love it, just didn't like the hitbursts.

Thanks for mentioning the hitbursts I completely forgot that they existed and need to work on making some new ones. I'll also have to edit the op to say that they are almost the exact same as nexus's hitbursts.

That spinner is bloated beyond recognition.

I suggest you to make it with visitor TT2 BRK, would be great ;)
On photoshop some shade and 1 px stroke would be fine I think
btw the cursor trail is not pretty when doing spinners

Schivardi
Uh yes, lightning is bad too, but I disabled it anyway, so didn't see :)

if you say it's because you've been working on this skin, I would be deeply saddened.

Are these your original characters?

Edit: Nevermind, I google imaged your desktop to get to your deviantart to IQDB the character. Never seen her before, love her design though.

I do in fact allow people to use my work, preferably if it's credited; though I can't really be too much of a stickler about that since I can't keep tabs on everybody who uses my stuff.

This is nice. Not sure I dig the shade of pink (since you used it for everything, it's a bit much for me—and pink is my favourite colour!) but it does its job well. You should look into making more original skins.

this is really nice :D Only thing you should look at is the multiplayer team vs mode score page! It is a bit off everywhere,i post o screenshot if i happen to be playing it again

sorry but I most likely won't be fixing that since it would require the score screen to have a different layout

Hmm, yeah, sounds good! Though I wonder if someone actually will show the interest to arrange this ;D

*adds people to contact them for further notice* o.o;

anyways...masood, have any plans for a future skin? seems like you could do this community some good with your talent o;

I would like a blue variant, too lazy to recolor myself, and you would make better job anyways :D (like everything purple to blue and the blue to something else)

I don't really have any plans for any other skins or anything but that is always a possibility.

oh and about a recolour just post the two colours you want and if I think it looks decent I'll get around to changing everything.

whoops, sorry, somehow missed that you had replied :O

But yeah, I was thinking, and thought that the purple to blue and blue to red. Feel free to use whatever accent of blue/red to make it look good.
I made an example, but these hues are just something I threw in fast, and I don't exactly like them :/
