The Skins Factory Needs You... If you know how to skin

I'm interested but are there limitations and what applications are to be skinned??

coding is done by roman for windows media player. We skin all kinds of applications. So there is no set app. Clients create software programs and need interfaces done. They come to us.

Limitations are only set by the artist. Which is why i am selective about who i have work for TSF.

It would be nicer if you could post links to actual skins not your custo account homepage. I don't have time to guess what you think is your best work ;-)

I believe I may be the top-ranked S2 skinner out there, not sure. Probably down to me or 0zz.

Note that most of these skins are both a year or more old, so my skills have matured a bit more since. Also note that these skins were all developed under TIGHT time restrictions (read: an hour or two at a time over the course of a week), so they represent what I can do in under 15 hours, not what I can do.

If that makes sense at all.

And yes, I know EXACTLY how terrible my grammar is at four oh two in the morning.

*note that most of the above skins are at least a year old, so my skills have matured since their release.

Much more coherent.

I blame the scotch personally.

If i can suggest a person

Zrco is a professional and talented artist. His knowledge about skinning and coding is immense and he is working in the section, too. Together with our team he did the exhibition part from our website.

I think he is the person you are looking for.

this looks like a big deal, artists must get a reasonable slice in each contract i take it (what is the average "competitive" share for a graphics artist TSF?). What specifc areas of expertise are you looking for, a gui artist is a little vague isn't it?

Qwertz: It isn't vague. One only needs to look at out portfolios to see what is required. Broad talent.

Imrik: Post a link not a nickname.

Thanks to some of you others for posting links.

TSF, so there are infact positions out there in the real world for 'general gui artists' ... sweet, are they all internet based like yourselves or do some have home bases with inhouse artists. i checked out your site too, looks pretty average, distortion311 could have done better ;]

"Pretty average", such a humerous comment.

i think that was sarcasm, if you look distortion311's website you'll see what i mean(though i think that was a bit a mean shot)

compo | customizing since 1906

He is the only media player skinner here i would name in a row with your team.

Since I’ve already got mentioned by Imrik I might as well say something myself. To reach TSF quality level one needs years of experience and hard work. I still consider myself a “rookie” in this part of design but I believe that I didn’t show all of my best yet, but if you think that I’m good enough I’m open for any kind of cooperation.

Thank you Imrik for mentioning my name in here. Since you have already posted links to my WMP skins, this is the WIP of one of the recent skins I’m doing http://www.zrco.net/temp/023.jpg
Also I did a couple of commercial WMP skins but I’m not aloud to showcase them.

That looks awesome zrco

/me puts in his vote for sticboy. every art team needs a hyper-skilled asian.

I dont think he wants minimal lilcycstyle4.. thats why I removed my links. Imrik is right he, (TSF) does need someone like zrco on his team because of the similar styles they share.

GUESS YOUR RIGHT MAX. HOW ABOUT LIQACHU? I'M NOT SURE ABOUT HIS WEBTIE LINK, SO MAYBE SOMEONE COULD HELP A BROTHA OUT.

holy jeez i need to learn to type without looking at my keyboard to make sure i don't have caps lock on like a stupid 10 year old. sorry.

liqachu is not what I would call a real skin guy. Unless you're looking for wallpaper artists, then he's tops.
