Presenting the Bootskin Editor...

Published on June 23, 2004 By UzEE In WinCustomize Talk

I finaly compiled A working version of "Bootskin Editor" a tool who anyone can use tocreate bootskins the easy way.
Some features include:

You can graphicaly position the progress bar.
Save as Bootskin Editor document.
Export your created bootskin to Stardock Bootskin.
Edit the ini Code manually.

but thats not all
You can Also preview the Bootskin in Full screen 16 color 640x480 mode.

This feature is very powerfull and is not avaliable in any onther editor.

It will be avaliable to download freely When i find a way to upload it

I cant seem to upload any thing greater than 800 kb . I dont know why but its a restriction.

Hmmm... Too big to upload (how big can it be) surely skinstudio is much larger, and that can be downloaded in full.

Staying connected to internet sounds suspicious to me, and those on dial-up may not be able to

I will check it out though

TO big to upload means that:

I got a cheap Dial-up that does not let me Upload Greater than 800KB
There Fore i Split the Setup Into 5 Parts for easy Uploading and created a Launcher Which you download First and then it downloads the Remaining Files. So You Need to Be Connected Untill Setup Finishes.

I dont get that error. Maybe its because I use DAP. But you can use the method which Essencay has Discribed.
