VLC Skin Editor - Skin design for the brave and patient
Screenshots
VLC Skin Editor is a program that allows users to create and edit skins for VLC Player. As the most popular open source media player, VLC Player is known for its excellent functionality but lacks in terms of appearance. With VLC Skin Editor, users can enhance or completely change the look of VLC Player, giving it a personalized touch.
The program features a well-organized interface that allows users to easily add various player attributes to their skins. Additionally, VLC Skin Editor offers the ability to test the skin "on the fly" with VLC Player, providing immediate feedback on the design.
However, there are some drawbacks to using VLC Skin Editor. The program lacks in-program examples or tutorials, making it non-intuitive for beginners. Users are required to have an external image editor, such as GIMP, to create the PNG images for their skins. This, combined with the complex process of creating skins, requires patience and dedication.
Overall, VLC Skin Editor is a commendable attempt at opening up skin design to a broader audience. However, it still falls short in terms of user-friendliness and may not be suitable for those without prior experience or technical skills.
