SkinStudio 6 Tutorial is Here!
Wednesday, September 3, 2008 by Island Dog | Discussion: SkinStudio Help
After a long time in the making, the SkinStudio 6 tutorial is released. This comes at a great time, especially with the GUI Champs ‘08 right aroun
d the corner. This tutorial guides users through the entire process of making a WindowBlinds skin starting with descriptions of the elements of a Graphical User Interface. It then guides you through the process of how to use SkinStudio, and how to assemble the various parts of a skin to ultimately make a complete skin.
This tutorial is aimed more at beginning users who are new to SkinStudio, or possibly thinking about creating their own skin. SkinStudio 6 is a huge improvement over past editions, and the creation of skins is much more easier for beginners than it was in the past. I haven’t made a full WindowBlinds skins in a while, and I was pleasantly surprised while creating this tutorial of how much better the experience was. That’s not to say that creating a high-quality skin is easy, it still takes a lot of time planning, creating graphics, etc., but at least SkinStudio makes piecing them together much easier.
The tutorial was recently updated to reflect recent changes in SkinStudio, and to done in a format which is much easier to follow and learn from with plenty of screenshots to go along. There is also an extensive Table of Contents, which is also linked at the bottom of every page for quick navigation between chapters. Over the next couple of days I will post some snippets of the tutorial, just to show some highlights. If you have been thinking about creating your own WindowBlinds skin, now is the time to start!
For more information about SkinStudio please visit www.skinstudio.net. There is a free version of SkinStudio available, but this tutorial was created with the Pro version that is available for just $19.95, or a special Bundle that includes WindowBlinds for just $29.95.
