Artist's Comments

This is my first skin for kewlpÄd and also my first skin which I have completely designed on my own.

I decided to try to skin kewlpad because it looked somewhat easy to do and it's an application I use regularly. I like how it turned out. I had to do a few trials to get the logo on the top left right. I ended up just pasting the one from the icon, resizing it and retracing it with the path tool, and then reshading it properly.

Slicing also gave me somewhat of a trouble. . . I'm not used to doing that even for webpages, and I had to restart a few times 'cause it looked messed up.

In the end I'm very pleased with how it turned out, and really proud of it too ^^. I might do a port for rainlendar sometime soon.

I believe in Jesus Christ my Saviour. If you do too and aren't scared to admit it then copy and paste this in your signature!

Nice, clean and simple - a fine skin. KewlpAd was one of my first skins, too!
And: KewlpAd still rules! :)

how do you apply this skin to your computer?

You're a collective gathering of complete nonsense

This skin is actually for a program called kewlpAd, which is like notepad except it's skinnable. you can get it here: [link]

For a skin that you can use on your whole computer (if you have XP), go here:[link]

If you have Vista, someone made a port that you can get here: [link]
:iconimmitrina:
so which link do i choose?
i mean, i've already got the theme set up and the wallpaper...but i'm having trouble applying the icons and the tackbar customizations
btw I have a vista

Get the vista version of the theme here: [link]
You'll also need to get a patch for your windows to make it work. Get that here: [link]

The icons can by found at [link] They were made for XP so they don't go up to all the sizes used by Vista. You'll need a program to be able to apply them to your computer. The one I use is Icon Tweaker [link]

Apart from this, I can't really help you much, since I personally use windows XP.
