using your skin, thx alot! i really love flat-ish theme

awesome skin!!!

yeah keep going

When is the next update (( can't wait for more changessssss

using it。loving it！

Good skin

Ah, what a beautiful skin. I'm jealous. I wasn't around then (I was for awhile but only noticed when the update came, I was a noob and used the default skin on 100% brightness) I think the reason why there isn't many simplistic skins that use a lot of transparency is because back then peppy only let background dim if the player completed the map once. Playing with a completely transparent skin on a bright background was annoying and deleting backgrounds was a hassle. Anyway, GJ. Great skin!

I like it.

Thanks for this skin

This skin is TOO good! I immediately replaced my old skin with this one, and know of a couple of people who already ditched a few elements (if not the entire skin) with yours. I tried to take this type of approach with my skin - called "Simple" - but I got distracted, and the quality of my work wasn't nearly as good as yours.

So thanks for this skin! I see this skin having a great future, and with enough support, even those higher ranking players using skins from 2009 will adapt and change their skin to this.

Freaking love the skin!
Awesome work! ^^

Nice.

Love it!

Absolutely gorgeous skin. Can't wait to see its future progress.

One thing I found weird was the inconsistency with the Pause/Fail/Result screen buttons, which seemed to have used a different typeface (Tahoma (or Verdana? Not sure) instead of Aller) for the Continue/Replay/Menu buttons.

I wanted to rid of the inconsistency, so I created a new imageset for the according buttons.


Download the .ZIP here. For the sake of troubleshooting and being able to revert the image elements in case you prefer the old set, the ZIP includes both the original set and the set I have created. I recommend you storing the folder found in the ZIP within the Extras folder of the Aesthetic skin.

Hope others will enjoy it! And again, this skin is fantastic. Keep up the great work!

This skin is beautiful like its one of the only skins I'm fine with 100% and don't need to change anything

nice

can you fix?

I feel this too, only downside of the skin it feels like spinners just come out of nowhere and ive never had that feeling with other skins, theres usually a subtle warning that has me spinning before the spinner shows up

It may have something to do with 800x600

Otherwise this is amazing and i've gotten some great results using it! great health bar, circles, and hitsounds, my second favorite skin and thats saying something because i have a lot of skins.

but because of the spinners coming without warning i can only give 9 ducks out of 10

Looks fantastic!

Great skin, love me, thanks for your job; well done. *u*

Osk is improperly zipped.

Osu will unzip it as skins\Aesthetic\Aesthetic

It is the best in the skin of a lot!　

It's been quite a while. I finally got myself to finish the mania skin that I've been working on, and I'm releasing it today along with a few minor changes to the existing skin.

I tried to follow the same style and basic principles I used for the standard skin: A colorful flat theme, as simple as possible while still being pretty to look at.

The skin comes with keys and notes in white and the six colours you may know from standard, which can be combined in any way you like. I hope to create a little online tool as a convenient solution that allows everyone to compile their own color setup in mania without having to mess around with the .ini files, but until then that's the only way. If you need some help, feel free to ask.


The osu! standard skin has been updated for skin version 2.2, but is otherwise mostly the same, aside from a few minor adjustments.
Check the changelog if you're curious.

As always I appreciate any feedback, positive or negative. I haven't been playing mania for all too long, so I'm curious to hear if you find anything that can be improved. Here's a video that shows what the mania skin looks like in 7k.

Thanks a lot to everyone who contributed ideas or left a friendly comment!

Now! Mostly mania though. The osu! skin is complete as it is and will most likely only see small adjustments in the future.

Thank you for pointing this out! I'd already replaced the menu buttons with the new font way back, but apparently forgot to copy-paste them into the 1.2.1 release. I made sure I added the right ones this time. (And, yes, that was Tahoma.)

This is not supposed to happen, and must be an issue with osu!. I believe this happens when the skin folder already exists? In any case, I've tested it and I can assure you the .osk unzips just fine when the existing Aesthetic folder is deleted or renamed first.

what font was used to score ?

The font used throughout the skin is Aller, the same font used by osu! ever since it abandoned Tahoma (Thank god).

I assume you're talking about the spinners as they were when the approach circles were temporarily removed? This should have fixed itself now. Without the approach circle, the spinners were indeed difficult to spot on time. If you think this is still a problem, please let me know.

I swear I saw the mania mode for this skin on technical support

A note to everyone who uses an older version of this skin: Chances are your spinner is broken (once again), and you might be wondering what happened to it. Ever since a recent update, the game forces the old spinner behaviour in every skin where a spinner-background.png file is present, which was the case in the older versions of Aesthetic. I removed the file from the skin in the download, but you can also fix it by doing that yourself.

You might mean this thread?

Yep.

that fail spy quote lol

Thank you for the updates. I have been using the majority of this skin for quite a while now. I don't see myself changing it any time soon.

What's cursor smoke?

It's a little feature that was introduced a while ago, which allows you to draw on the screen with smoke particles while playing a beatmap. I think the default bind is C. Here's an example: https://osu.ppy.sh/ss/1682995

I don't know much about skins, but the default Osu! main menu logo don't seems to match a lot with this skin, can't that be possible to change it?

Unfortunately, it's not possible to skin the logo in the title screen and song selection, so there's nothing I can do about that.

Thanks , interesting feature

Amazing skin, I love the elements used with the mania skin, especially the lighting.

Do you plan on doing a Taiko or a Catch the Beat portion to this, or is it strictly Standard/Mania?

I'm glad to hear you like it!

I do plan on making this a skin for all game modes eventually. However, I'll start on the other modes when I feel like it and found some ideas, so it might take a while longer. Taiko will most likely come first.

That's another feature that was added to osu! very recently. As far as I know, the picture previews only show up in skins that use skin behaviour version 2.2 or above, so that's why it may seem new to you. Try checking the song selection on the default skin, it should have the little pictures as well.
