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.

When I make a new file and save it. When I click EXPORT, it exports out the image files and ini. My boot skin that I created doesn't show up in the list. So I try to do it through Import From File.. The problem is that Stardock's BootSkin only takes .bootskin files.
I'm new to this, any help will be appreciated.
