What tool to you guys use to create SYSMETRIX template?

May 20, 2004 10:05:25 PM from WinCustomize ForumsWinCustomize Forums
Hey everyone,

I need some assistance every day I see new templates for Sysmetrix my question is what tool are you guys using create these awsome templates.

Someone told me you could create them using Sysmetrix but all I see in the configuration window is import and export. I not sure where everyone is getting these funky designs and would like to create a few myself if pointed in the right direction.

Hope someone can help me out...

Thanks,

The graphics are made with PS or Paint Shop Pro mostly.
Although some people use other graphics programs.

Imagination is the main tool, though.

As Pictoratus mentioned, you can use any graphic program to create the templates.
I always sketch the template on a paper to have an idea of what and how I want the skin to look, then I use a graphic program (in my case, PhotoShop7) to create it

Double click on the foreground color (the little icon that has a balck & white square) and when the Color Picker window opens, change the R, G, B settings to 255, 0, 255.
This will give you the 'magic pink' color that you will use on all the parts that you want to appear invisible.
