Well thank you for having interest in my first skin and I hope you downloaded it.

I present to you a fully skinned somewhat minimalistic "Pro" skin, unlike other half-completed skins or "alpha and beta" skins.
Skinned for all game modes with alternative extras for standard.
The skin is optimized for full background dim, 16:9 resolutions and mostly distractionfree.

preview of some extras
Hitcircle + number variants:


Sliderball in 6 colours + white:


Sliderfollowcircle glow in 6 colours:


Sliderfollowcircle neon ring in 6 colours:


Cursors in 6 colours:


Followpoints in 4 colours + white + black:

You may say: "Hey, aren't these well known elements?" and I say: "Yes, but not them."
They are simply similar to them if they appear like this but this was my intention with this skin.
I thought why not make your first skin using designs you like or had an easy time playing with but also having small details, so this is somewhat a "Pro minimalistic" skin.
They appear in a lot of older or private skins where you can't really find any credits.
So I can't take credits for every design except my recreations or original designs by myself.

Hitsounds are from the Aesthetic HD Skin by Redon.
Thanks and credits to him for letting me use them.
They give off a more accurate feeling since they are mostly drum sounds and accompany the music well.

Also thanks to Liar- who made the video.

Elements were made in Adobe Photoshop.
If you're doubting I made any element myself, I will provide the .psd-files on request to show they are based on layers and not simple recolours / copypastes.

Choice in fonts is simple. WHY SHOULD I USE 3 OR MORE FOR AN UI?? So I'm sticking to one font for the UI.
The font I'm using for the UI is Digital Sans which you should know as the font of the scorenumbers from the default osu!-skin.
The extra fonts for numbers are: Agency, Bangle, Eurostile, Jubeat saucer (a font recreation).

(Almost the end, few last words.)
Again thanks for reading this wall and downloading the skin. I hope you could follow my reasoning and enjoy playing with my skin.

Thanks for confirming I packed it correctly.

I'm gonna post a update real soon because of the spinner-approachcircle.

I hoped for the toggle being implemented soon but they only reverted the fix.
Claim in the threads was that it will only display if included in the skin but the default circle showed up on mine after latest update. So I'm gonna include a transparent approachcirlcle for now and add a missing word in my notes:
I'm using small hitbursts with transparent to not cover the hitcircles.
This should be:
I'm using small hitbursts with transparent particles to not cover the hitcircles.
I will also add a cursor variant using the cursormiddle in an Extra folder.
Update will be pushed after I receive a certain PM regarding certain hitsounds. They are soo good and don't want to steal or include them without permission.

  3. hitsounds from Niko,
  4. and the extras,
  5. aswell some new graphics for the post.
New links in the OP.

Or click me for v1.1.
hehe
looks pretty sweet from the screenshots, will test out ingame and report back. no scorenumbers?

here's my opinions, one thing though, i don't think you're allowed to use other people's hitsounds...?

like
mod icons, rank icons, scanline design, good take on the scorenumbers.

critique
  • - larger hit300.png etc, in the ranking panel its too small right now. non-hitburst

    - not a fan of star.png, shouldnt it be red at least? owo

    - spinner-middle.png too small, overlaps the bonus points from getting spin score

    - menu-button-background.png too small, this happens http://puu.sh/90rVZ.jpg

    - score numbers are cramped, max combo and accuracy can be shifted down a little http://puu.sh/90s10.jpg

800x600 problems

  • - menu-back.png button too large, overlaps mud buttons in 800x600

    - 1px stroke in general look bad in 800x600

Regarding the hitsounds, these are fairly known and in lots of private skins that are even given out. Conclusion: Niko gave out these hitsounds and they spread, so why not include them here if you can get them anywhere else. Of course I can't get a real permission from him since he's not online anymore (atm). They also fit the sub theme "Pro" since they come from a pro.

Redon's hitsounds are also in Luminance and Urouki gave permission to use his skin elements anywhere so I could include them right away, but I don't know if only he has the permission or if others can also use elements from Aesthetic in their skins. I read through the thread and didn't find any statement reagarding that. I could also just include them and give him credit and remove by request if he doesn't want that.

In short, Niko's sounds are spread out wide, fitting the theme and Redon's are only in Aesthetic and Luminance with no clear written permission anywhere.

At the 800x600 problems, this skin is not designed for this resolution so these aren't serious valid points. But the overlap and my selectionbar made me make a new menu-back. It's an arrow now.

Other stuff:
  1. Yeah, they are kinda small for the ranking screen but I wanted small ones primarly focused on gameplay. I made some larger hitbursts but still have the smaller ones for gameplay.
  2. I chose green for contrast with the colours the button background gets tinted to and red is not really a focus element. Redd is reference to my name and not the colour, also you see few elements being red. But thanks for mentioning, they didn't really fit in the end and made this one, turned out to look better but still having same design.
  3. The spinner is designed for spinning itself without overlapping elements. I don't find the bonus score distracting since you focus on the middle of the spinner and not around it.
  4. Blame the template for that and not me, it is so minor not worth fixing. Also why should that be distracting?
  5. Scorenumbers are focused on white and the black is just an outline. Some like them this way, some like a bigger gap. If I had to make changes for that I would need to re-adjust the ranking panel and that's a ton of work I don't want to do again. Regarding maxcombo and accuracy, of course I put them a bit lower. Should look better now.
Update tomorrow or later. Don't want to push out 2 updates in rapid succession.

k, last update for now.

I got permission from Redon to include his hitsounds. So here's another thanks to him.

I also redesigned the pause screen a bit, reworked menu-back and play-skip,so it should be ready for the completed skins check.

HUGE UPDATE:

I remade this skin in HD and wanted to originally wait for the new mania / skinning changes to go live on public build.
Since these changes can involve more time than I thought and I don't want to wait I release the update now.

Changes are:
  1. fully remade in HD
  2. redesigned UI
  3. more cursors
  4. more followpoints
  5. new slider stuff (ball, 2 followcircle designs)
  6. removal of animations (visible hit300s in extra folders)
  7. 5 different number fonts
  8. etc.
Since I can't delete files from the older version in the database I made a new listing and still offer download links to the v2.3 skin, also to show people the vast improvement in quality switching from GIMP to PS.

I would like feedback on the other game modes skinned since my main mode is standard and I don't know if my design choices are fitting for higher gameplay level on the other modes.

i'm not late i swear

Hey I just found almost the perfect skin I wanted. I was like TT_TT when I heard "YOU SUCK" when I failed a song. But this skin is really nice. It's a nice color too. :D :P
