hello everybody

Skinner is a tool i created as part of my mod hebMule a few
years back, since then it has become an independent tool to create
and edit skins for eMule and for several of its mods (like hebMule, MorphXT, etc...)
Skinner is also multilingual so you'll be able to use it in you own language as well.
Skinner is free and open source, and it's released under the GPL license.

main features:
  • NEW: A fresh design to help create/edit skins easier, includes a toolbar, previewing, drag-n-drop & much more...
  • NEW: integration to Windows using new skin extensions supported by uot;88369"]hebMule-onyx 1.3+
  • NEW: many improvements & upgrades, including a unicode build & some bug-fixes
  • Support for multilingual interface (change the language in Preferences under language),
    currently Skinner supports: English, Hebrew, Spanish,
    French, German, Italian, Portuguese, Danish, Polish, Czech & Dutch
    *** if you'd like to translate Skinner into your own language, contact me (hebmule {at} gmail <dot> com)
  • Support for creating skins for eMule mods:
    hebMule-Onyx, MorphXT, SharkX, Beba, Xtreme and more...
    *** modders who'd like their mod to be supported, send only your mods' icons and .rc info for the icons to my email.
  • Simple interface to edit and save the skins, just click an entry and select the icon/color/file
  • Support reading zipped/rarred skins and already made skins for editing.
  • Multiple methods to edit skins (using icon/color/file dialogs, manual editing)
  • Support for copying and pasting skins entries
  • Support for Undo and Redo
  • Check for newer versions automatically


you can download Skinner v1.0 from hebMule project's Skinner page
or directly from SF.net Binary/Source or via eMule using ed2k links
download info. and rss feed can be found at hebMule's download page

Regards,
Avi3k

Is it possible to change the background colour of the "downloading" (as opposed to the "downloads") window?
Are we nearly there yet?

currently Skinner is not updated to the new 0.48a
(actually i haven't released a new version in over a year or so)
i plan on doing so as soon as i have free time
which will happen, but unfortunatelly life's keeping me busy.

i also got some suggestments for the new version
so we'll see if it will contain new features beside an update...

hope i'll have some good news for you soon ;)
