The cursor looks a bit like the Aesthetic one though
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:
remove the dots from the name of the .osk else it wont work
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.
but.. but.. D:Uruoki wrote:
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
Don't post BS please, that is not supporter only. That was still skinnable 2 months ago. With the new song selection layout, it was gone and disabled since the options from there (showing ranked/ unranked) got implemented into the gouping filters.Kheryo wrote:
- Added skinning of the "Selection Options" icon (I assume that is a supporter thing since I saw it here and there but never ingame)
Calm down please, I simply didn't know where or when it appeared, and since it was in the template, I didn't want an additional icon to not be skinned as that would not look nice.ReddScorn wrote:

As time passes I tend to orient this skin towards easier reading and improved accuracy. That is good news 'o'LightTsunami wrote:

If you like clean, minimalist and bright skins, maybe you should try Aesthetic or Minimalist Miku
Hi, I was supposed to add this in the main post but instead I'm making sort of a skinning almanach for my page, so I forgot to post it here .-.Agrrox wrote:

Hello, and welcome to this post. Please have a seat. ╞╕
Experiment 00 is a dark, minimalist skin, that aims to provide players with an efficient environment, with the smallest amount of distractions possible.
This skin was composed according to my own taste and to player suggestions. If you find any way to improve it, please feel free to share it via this thread or via MP.
This skin is made from scratch, however, I found inspiration in my favorite skins to this day : Minimalist Miku and Luminance, you may want to check these out as well.
Feel free to give it a try if you like it or if you have some time to kill. I am always open to suggestions and any constructive criticism is welcome.
Main features
• Dark theme
• Minimalistic
• Easy to read
• Moderate contrast (does not cause too much eye strain)
• A nice set of extras to further customize the skin to your liking
Quick notes
• Recommended for any type of players. This skin should suit you even in the hardest difficulties. If it does not, please let me know, and I will work towards improving it according to your suggestions and requests.
• It is highly recommended to play with background dim 80-100% when using this skin
• If you want to play with background/storyboard/videos on, you can find an opaque hitcircle in the extras folderScreenshots

Custom HP barI will include a .psd file for anyone who wants to add his name to the HP bar.
If you happen to not have any .psd editing software at hand, you can download and use Gimp which is a free alternative to photoshop. You only need to know how to open a file and use the text tool, which should take you approximately 2 minutes to learn.
My own HP bar, at last *o*
This is the default
Please don't ban me
Empty bar (the part of the bar with your name also disappears)
Note : There are a few text variations in the extra folder for the HP bar background.
Note2 : There is no easter egg here.New HitcirclesFrom left to right : 0%, 30%, 60%, 100% opacity
From top to bottom : Thin, Normal, Thick color circle
I tried going with thicker color circles but the result was, in my humble opinion, not fitted to my skin nor to my gameplay, thus I did not include them.
Same thing with a background for better appreciation
These hitcircles seem to be trendy these days so I included these in the extras for the players who are more used to using them.
(Yes, this sentence makes sense.)SliderBall / SliderFollowCircleLeft to right : Sliderball (default), More visible Sliderball (extra), SliderFollowCircle (extra)CursorLeft one is the previous cursor (v1) and middle one is the new default, updated one. Right one is a request. As it looks pretty nice, I included it in the extras.SpinnerMiku decided she didn't want to work as a spinner-metre anymore.
(She is still there for you in the extra folder if you miss her)Credits

5 : CTRL + SHIFT + S -> "scorebar-colour.png"
6 : Cancel the resizing and exit (or exit without saving)
I don't understand D:

2 : ???
3 : Profit !
How do I send you a PM ?

2 : Navigate to any content you may like to use as a replacement in the main skin
3 : Copy all the files in the folder you are currently in (e.g. C:\Program Files (x86)\osu!\Skins\Experiment 00 v2.0.0\Extras\Cursor\Light Gray)

5 : Ctrl + V (paste) and when asked to overwrite, click Yes
How do I restore the default thingies ?
Same procedure as when you want to use extra thingies, except this time you are looking for the folders with "DEFAULT" in the name in the extra folder.
Why ?
