Help: Simple Skin

Post by Maarten »

I am a noob at making skins, so therefore I hope someone could make a simple skin for me. I would like a triangle that fits in the corner of your screen, and if you click it, it will direct you to a location (in my case: D:\Desktop). I would like to have the color black. The triangle shouldn't be too big. I think this is a simple skin to make, but if you don't know anything about making skins like me, it would take a very long time.

This might help get you started. Be aware though, that we don't allow, and won't respond to skin "requests" on the forums. We are happy to help you with creating your own skin, but nobody is going to just do it for you.
