Pixtudio strikes again!

December 4, 2001 10:17:07 PM from JoeUser ForumsJoeUser Forums
The suite not only includes themes for DesktopX, Hoverdesk, WinSTep, and ObjectBar(*).

It is also includes the FIRST skin to support the new SmartButton feature of WindowBlinds 3!

Other skins include:

- Aminews *
- Beatnik *
- ColorPad *
- CoolPlayer *
- eNotes *
- GreyBook *
- Ezpop *
- Icq+ 3.0 including all the new features, even the animated splash screen. The most complete icq skin ever made
- QuickNotes *
- SkinMem *
- Sysmeter2 *
- Winamp full skinned (5 windows)
- WindowsMediaPlayer full skined ( including visualization, playlist and video screens)
- XXCalculator *
- Zoomer *

All the skins marked with the "*" are freeware.

This time the skin suite was made in 6 hands, Nuvem joinned their team to create it.

The full suite is only $10 which is an amazing price if you think of how many skins are included and the quality of them. You can try out pieces of them and purchase at:

http://www.pixtudio.com/index.php3?page=suite&SuiteID=537

You can also purchase the debut skin suite at:
https://www.wincustomize.com/pixtudio.asp?Suite=pixtudiowc
and that's on sale for $8.

Another beautiful skin suite from Pixtudio. I do however wonder how many people would be willing to pay for it? I don't dispute that the amount of work that went into it makes the price more than great value, but with so many other wonderful skins out there for free, is charging for skins viable?

I've seen the numbers on the first one. They're large. There are lots of people out there, like me, who consider $10 to get a full, consistent professional quality skin suite to be money well spent. I spent $7 regularly to see crummy movies, so $10 for something wonderful that I'll use for months on end is a pretty good deal.

I Agree , they are beautiful, but the first one one $8 , and there was more to it, ( icons and such ) this one is $10 , how much will the next one be? I think ill pass on this one and see if the pricee goes back down.

It's an outstanding collection of work, and well worth the money. I bought it and I am downloading now, problem is I'm probably still going to be downloading it by sunrise... The download is inching along at about 800 bytes per second. It took less than a minute to process the order and receive the email key. Free is one thing but when you pay for something you expect a little speedier delivery...

It took me forever to d/l it but well worth the wait. However.....I truly hope that subsequent suites won't be more than $10, as that's about the max I could see paying for this sort of thing, though I will say that there aren't suites that I'd pay for besides pixtudio....well maybe if dangeruss put out a new suite

My 2c on the cost ... $8/$10 does not seem much but like I am from South Africa where the Rand/Dollar rate today is R10.65 for $1 which makes the suite R85.2/R106.50 ... now that is a couple of movies in SA.

Well, download is a problem, I'm on my 10th try now after some broken or cancelled downloads. But after I saw the screenshot it was clear for me, that I must have the suite. Will there be a MusicMatch Jukebox skin, also ??? Please, please ! (I know it is a bit nifty to skin, so nevermind...)

I only use winamp and windowblinds, wouldn't need all of the other skins. Might consider paying for just those, but I'm spoiled by all of the free skins available. I guess if everyone else starts charging I'll have to learn to do it my self!

Bought it, got it (eventually), installed it and love it. Well worth the 10 spot. I spend that in a week turning diet soda into... well, you know

It's a good thing I'm running a high resolution (1600x1200), since some of the elements would be a bit large at a common resolution of 1024x768.

Definitely worth the wait and 10 bucks. It's obvious a lot of work went into this and it shows . I noticed there are some smart looking icons in the WindowBlinds screenshot, any chance they will be released...

Any chance someone can tell how big the ZIP is? I'm still d/ling it at amassive 460bps (I can cancel it and try l8r if I'm too far off - the download is probably costing more than the pack )

Thanx, I'll download it later then, I'd been on 2 hours and got about 3MB.

Awesome suite of skins! This is definitely my new favorite, most comprehensive, professional and well designed set I've seen. Great job Pixtudio!
