So you can just upload the various pictures from ./skins/amethyst/ then use the ./skins/amethyst/main.css as your mySkin stylesheet. Maybe we could recode some part of the skin system so one can use a html layout then select a style to apply too. Then we could even create a 'Skin:' namespace and make those namespaces available in the preferences automaticly :o) I have made this skin using firefox 1.07, anything else isnt supported (well firefox 1.5 should). The logo text is black on transparent background, as the skin use a black background, you see some gray pixels probably used for antialiasing purposes. Probably need to move the logo down a bit. I used yellow for links cause it looks great with the dark gray background. The real problem here is that the central panels hardcode the background color but do not hardcode the link colors. I havent been able to find a link color that make links readeable with the dark gray background and with a light background. I use google :o) The URL parameter useskin=amethyst is not propagated to links (not sure we want to do that: caching issues?). I think there is a bug open for that. See above :o) cheers, -- Ashar Voultoiz - WP++++ http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Hashar http://www.livejournal.com/community/wikitech/ IM: hashar(a)jabber.org ICQ: 15325080
