Artist's Note

Oddwood Visual Style for Windows XP
by WB Skinner and Lightstar Technologies


Greetings Folks,

Big news for me (WB) as I have never done a theme in ka-hoots with anyone up until now. Lightstar and myself hooked up a week ago after he asked me for some advice concerning his wonderful LonghornPro theme (its gorgeous...go get it).

Lately I've got to admit I HAVE been aching to put some real 'themes' together. Thus, when I proposed the idea of a joint effort to Lightstar, I was elated to have him respond so positively and with a real flare of professional enthusiasm. His extensive experience with skins and theming was invaluable in the creation of the Oddwood theme.

So here you have it!...a WB Skinner skin with a Lightstar touch...shellstyle, icons, wallpaper and a .theme file to apply it all with a click. Lightstar did a great job with the shellstyle and bits of the skin, helping me with advice and troubles as I sweated razors stretching and tiling wooden pieces.

Oddwood is a wooden version of my previous skin, XoddX, and its turned into probably the weirdest (and most completly) wooden skin of the five or six I've seen out there for Windowblinds or StyleXP.

The icons included are Noia Warm done by Carlitus (with permission granted to Lightstar) and are available in collection AND Icon Packager format at deskmod.com:




PLEASE NOTE: If you want all the icons on the start panel to change you will need the Icon Packager program.

Anyway, we hope you like it.

WB Skinner

it's too primative in comparison to todays graphics.

eeeeh. Such a long Note. Sorry.. i really donīt have the nerves again. And if i mention something that is mentioned in your notes, i am sorry. So here we go: The wooden thing is cool. But has been done by someone before. What i really appreciate in all your submissions. THEYīre a hell lot of weird and yeah... overdone word these days... different. But i donīt dig it .. WHY? To busy again. Big buttons. Freakin colours. I donīt know. The SOMETHING is missing. Sorry.. i donīt know what to say about this one.. maybe in the next submission.

After I put this skin on my desktop, I bumped my knee on the start menu. It still hurts.
