| AmigaDE GUI prototype pictures : Comment 22 of 25 | ANN.lu |

Skinnable means that another group of people in the Amiga Community will be able to offer their time and talents to make the AmigaOS/De even *more* choices in GUI design and aesthetics.
I get the feeling that some of you might not know what "skinnable" means. Well, get yer' happy asses over to skinnerZ sites like http://www.wincustomize.com or http://www.deviantart.com and *see* what skinning has offered in the way of almost unlimited choices in GUI design and aesthetics, to the users of M$ products. With this feature, not only will you be able to make your Workbench of The New Milleneum look like *anything you want*, but the traditionally rich subset of the Amiga Community, the artistically talented, will be able to make some real contributions to the look and feel of the OS. The rest of us will have *choices*, choices we can change once an hour, or never, once we find a theme we like. This one feature also has the real potential to *attract* many talented people from the skinnerZ community, people who just might be interested in expanding their horizons. If the Amiga Community can attract a few artists from there, artists like Alexandrie(Who has made a GRUNCH of Windowsblind skins that look strangely like a workbench we all love), Dangeruss or Essorant, then we will have some of the premier GUI aesthetic designers, on the planet, in our court.
Of course, some of you would prolly not like to see that happen, as your fundamental attitudes about all this tend to run towards seeing SnoTown hit by an asteroid as progress...<sigh>
To those, I say "Bon Chance". Because your attitudes tend towards the unrealistic and delusional. |
