Hi, folks.
If there are any other GUI-conservatives like myself around...
Since I don't really like (read: can't stand) the Elves skin, I recreated the old
Default skin by adapting its graphics to the new GUI system.
It is of course slightly different from the old stuff, due to technical requirements of the new system,
but I did my best to copy the look and feel of the "good ole times".
Most of the art work is under ABC license anyway and I just adapted it into the new form
but my additions (new tileable background texture, pattern and so on) are hereby released
under ABC license as well. I probably won't have the time to do regular updates and
maintenance on the thingy, but of course the devs are welcome to include the skin in
coming (current? - update?) releases.
There are some inherent issues with the new system and the old graphics conflicting,
e.g. the accept icon partially disappearing behind panels in the trade window. But since it
was originally a project for private use only I couldn't be bothered to invest a lot of time
in trying to fix these minor details and recreate all the necessary graphics bits needed to do so.
Some fellow guild and alliance members thought it might be of use for others as well and so
I decided to "publish". However it is a lot better than using the old "default" skin that is still
included in the PS installation, where there are no window backgrounds and some other flaws.
Current versions for 0.6.1
