Hi everyone !
Sorry about the lack of activity lately, I've been somewhat busy and only logged into osu a few times, and I will still have things to do until maybe ~25th july.
I will however try to keep an eye on this thread and fix any problems that may occur with the skin.
Thank you very much for taking time to try my skin and for all the feedback, good ideas are always welcome
(Special thanks to Uruoki for the very detailed reply '-')
I will edit the main post with a small update (1.1.1) :
- Changed the selection icons (on the bottom of songselect)
- Added skinning of the "Selection Options" icon (** As I was told this is useless, it will be removed in the next updates **)
- Added a menu background (I will most likely change it soon though)
- Repackaged the .osk to fix some potential issues

It was made from scratch though, and I thought this was the most visible shape I could give it. Might change it one day e_e
Could you please tell me what os you are using so that I can set up a VM and run some tests ?
That is however a nice idea and I will try to find something by the next update.
More people are likely to fall for this trap in the future, as the way I packaged it was following the instructions of the skinning tutorial :
However I will now archive the folder the way you explained, thank you very much for pointing that out
Also thanks for the fonts, these are exactly what I was looking for, I will try to see if they fit better than the current one ^^

As I am not supporter myself, I have no idea how this will look, but I added one. I will most likely buy a 1 month supporter to ensure the skin also looks good for these nice fellas.[ Pingu ] wrote:
Please add a menu-background for supporters ^^
Done. However, it worked 100% fine for me when I tested the .osk (win7 64bits)Icek- wrote:

I can't really think of something that would fit in and not be too distracting given the shape of the current spinner ._.Uruoki wrote:
Spinner would be better with some kind of changing visual so players know how fast they are spinning. Something that is not the RPM meter. Luminance uses the middle of the spinner.

Sliderfollowcircle should be skinned
Also, even though I think the slider follow circle is not annoying on most hard/insane maps, it becomes incredibly distracting to see it expand and retract multiple times per second when you have to tap many small sliders on higher level maps, so I got used to playing without it. But it is still available in the extra folder for those who want it '-'Kheryo wrote:
Slider follow circleYes, that is an extra. I would really recommend playing without it but the choice is yours to take, and I'd rather have you use a follow circle fitted for this skin than the default one
Maybe it is somewhat bright due to the thickness of the HP bar, but I think I will stick with it for now, as I want to keep this skin in a dark tone with some white, colors being used only for hitcircles and menu/songselect UI. Thank you very much for this feedback though, I will look for a way to improve the HP bar ^^Uruoki wrote:
I personally find the score/health bar too bright and distracting from the playfield. I suggest #b5b6b8, it is a bit more neutral.
Thank you very much, I changed the selection icons to look more smooth (they look like your modded one now).Uruoki wrote:
For the selection icons, they could be a bit better in my opinion. The neon bar seems too harsh. Something that blends into the text would look nice, like this.
I didn't know ._.Uruoki wrote:
The .osk is not archive correctly. A lot of people seem to make this mistake. Go into the folder itself and archive it. If you archive the actual folder, it puts a folder inside a folder.

Since it worked fine for me when installing the .osk of my skin, I assumed it would work fine for others too. Maybe are we using different operating systems ? (Mine is win7 x64)MLGnom wrote:
9. Creating .osk files
All that the user will need to do is open the file with osu!.
You need to create .osk (osu! skin) file. You can create one from the skin selection screen, or manually with the steps below.
Creating .osk file with WinRAR
Creating .osk file with 7-ZIP
In short : You need to create .zip archive and simply change extension to .osk
However I will now archive the folder the way you explained, thank you very much for pointing that out
