New Minstrel Metal Templates
Posted: Mon Aug 29, 2005 11:57 pm
I just wanted to let people know that I have two new files available and they are both template/tutorial files. They give you the photoshop files and a full set of instructions for use to create your own customizations for my two metal skins.
They are available now in the 'Tutorials and Templates' section of our download area.
The Minstrel Metal CustomColor Template
Gives you the files to make your own CustomColor sets. This allows you to put your own colors, text and logos in your sidebars. It also allows you to colorize the accent colors on your titlebars. My own projects had four styles and the templates are set up for you to easily customize any of the four: solid color, two color gradient, solid color with accent lines (they're designed to mimic the color banding usually used on jersey sleeves) and two color with accent lines.
Minstrel Metal: Etched Steel Logos Template
Gives you a template and instructions for how to make your own custom logo 'mid' sidepanel(s) for my Etched Steel skin. I have NHL and Finn SM-League sets available for download in the 'Skins: Add-ons' section. This template contains already resized logos for the AHL, ECHL and UK. If anyone wants to tackle that project or pick out one favorite team it should be pretty quick to do so.
So if you do something via either template, even if you only do one team, go ahead and upload it to the Add-ons section, I'm sure people will appreciate the additional options!
BTW - My NHL CustomColor sets for all 30 NHL teams will be up later today.
