GMail skin for multiple accounts

[Saiho]

My first skin is complete and can be found here, together with it's full description.
If anyone cares to download it, I'd love some feedback on the code. This is my first time coding anything and, seeing how small some other skins can be, I get a feeling it could be made more efficient, but I can't really figure out how to do it while keeping all the functionality.

Feedback on anything else is of course welcome too!

Now that's cool. A whole set of skins for a full system readout would look amazing.

[Saiho]

Thank you!
The next step is actually to make a set of skins in this style, but I'm trying to write everything from scratch, so completing that will take me a while I'm learning as I move on.
Currently struggling with the text input plugin.

[Zibob]

Nice. It will look great when it's done. Have fun learning, I know I am but I have quite a few things still to learn.

EDIT: On your DeviantArt page it says Requires 1.4 (beta) surely you mean 2.4?

looking nice
you did the graphics too?
how is everyone be able to create such awesome graphics oO

[Saiho]

AutoCAD and Photoshop
PS alone should be enough for most things, but for straight lines and such I prefer some pure vector software.
I'm a designer, not a programmer. For me the hard part is the coding

[Konraden]

Those backgrounds look fantastic. I'm working on a similar design, but pretty straight forward and boring hexes, not these fancy lines and lights you have going on.

I've had coding experience, that stuff comes easy to me. It's the graphics I've always struggled with.

[Saiho]

Thank you!
A (hopefully) improved version of this skin will be included in this collection I'm currently working on. I think the graphics in the new one look a bit better.
