Gemstone WindowBlinds Skin Idea- for Someone up to the Challenge

I could name a few who'd be perfect but I don't know what they might be doing at the moment. Wait and see who shows up.

Thanks for your reply!   I'm excited to see what comes of it!   I understand though, that even skinners have lives outside of the internet, so i'll be patient.  

i can deffinatley do it, but you will have to wait a month or so, im just starting on a command and conquer skin.

so if anyone wants to do it earlier than that, by all means take their offer xxxx

A couple of years ago i have suggested something similar but nothing happened then I really hope to see this skin finished, but it has to be very realistic like you said, otherwise it will just look like a cartoon image without the real bling.

Oh and I just remebered another skin  I really wanted back then: a fluffy skin   And if I remeber well Brainiac have showned a pictures of a skin like that, i don't know how serious he was about making one, but unfortunately many have started laughing I wish some people could show more creativity

oh year i remember that fluffy skin, but some looked more like a toilet seat cover.....do i dare attempt that one too?

I'll wait--  good things come to those who wait      Maybe someone could do one with two versions.  A polished faceted stone version, and a rough uncut version as a subskin.      

Vampothika, I was also thinking of you & Boxxi along with many others here- a when I made the suggestion, especiallly i. Brainiac  whom I hope is still around.    I know what you mean that it has to be done with the right amount of taste,  or it will end up looking like a toilet seat cover..heehee!     good way to put that

I have faith in all of you skinners though, that it will come out looking sharp- especially if you keep everything simple and smooth- with just the right amount of stones embedded --and a nice stone or Mabe' pearl embedded as a start button.   As long as it looks real, you can't go wrong.          You can get some inspiration from combing through the Sundance catalogs where they sell all of that handcrafted stone jewelry-- alot of it is rugged and alot of it is elegant  but all of it is very tasteful.

.       Even though I have dial-up on this computer,  I will download it on my father's super fast computer --  and purchase it if it becomes a Master skin.     I'll make a screenshot of it used on my computer and upload  the   screenshots  in our screenshots section when the time arrives.

I understand what you mean, brainiac does some good stuff when he skins.

you should shoot off a pm to vstyler as he and brainiac are besties, he will know if brainiac is still skinning or not. (health problems may be a factor) or even pm brainiac himself. you never know.

but if he isnt up to it, ill be more than happy if no one else fills the shoes in the mean time,

recently i aquired a nice gem set of emitters from particle illusion, that are exeptionally shiny and real looking that i though would deffinatley

work with the gem wb.

Thanks Vampothika!! I'll send a pm to vstyler and brainiac.- even just to see if brainiac is still alive and okay-- I know some of these skinners are up in age with health issues. 

   I'd also be thrilled if you did one too, as I really like your work as well.      Hmmm, maybe it is no cooincidence that this gem set of emitters fell into your hands        .. how cool is that!

thanks for taking the time to reply, by the way

Deea19, thanks for your reply also-   I especially love the creative skins , too, tha these folks put out--One of my favorite originals is that Steampunk skin. I love detailed skins-     I also love the basic designs that skinners like Essorant puts out-  which I think are in a class all by themselves.     One newer skin I thought was clever is Rolocolor's "window suckers"

boldy, can you post some pics here of what you would like?

im going to do it.

Omg, that would be great      sorry it took so long to get back to the forum here to check post responses!

  I like your quality work as it is and so that would awesome if you would do this! Thanks !!

you could make rugged semi-precious stone subsection--  and a more high end precious stone subsection-

below are two examples of what is possible;-- one faceted quartz embedded in silver and the other a dangly polished gem--to give you two ideas of how you can make the stones if you would like--   :

 otherwise even the screensaver link I posted above has a good example of reallly polished stones --

no biggie babe,

what colour do you want the wb to be?

Interesting....

Kitty @ work...

Mistress of the Exotic...that's our Kiity.

Hmm,-- maybe a Blind with a variety of different colored gemstones-- like an amythest, a quartz crystal,   emerald,   etc..    It doesnt matter- something nuetral with some various colored stones throughout

thanks so much for doing this, Vampothika!! I can't wait !   I've been offline again for awhile so sorry I havnt gotten back to you sooner-     I havent stopped thinking about this skin though-and I know you'll do it justice!-   

yeah, i havent had time to even do this skin, part of the issue was waiting for you to come online and tell me what you want dear...., but never mind.

Hi again! I have today off from work so thought i'd stop in  

Vampothika,    Any way you want to make it --whatever comes to your imagination would be perfect.  I'm flexible and easy to please.

When you get the chance to make it-  an idea would be clear glassy transparency with random stones embedded in it here and there-

Maybe two versions-- one glitzy and sparkly and the other more glassy (just an option though)

I think each skin author has their own unique style, and so my suggestion would be just to do it any way that comes to you.  I like your

work to begin with so any way you want to do it would be great--    I love many styles of artwork.

Thanks so much Vampothika-!   I understand you have alot on your plate,  so no rush--  

hugs

hahah ,nooo i dont think so. What you wrote on lightstars skin about me was totally uncalled for considering i was the one waiting around

for you, not you waiting around for me.

like i said in my  reply before this one to you here, i havent got time to sit around and twiddle my thumbs and wait for you to suddenly appear on wc. i have a schedule, and an artistic mind that cant wait or be put on hold.

sorry but this wb is out for me.you will have to find someone else.

Kitty, you OK? I don't know why you are chewing out boldyloxx, I don't think what she said on my skin was anything to get upset at, she was just saying with time constraints and such in your life, and more than likely knowing that you were moving, that you just had not gotten to it yet.  I do not think she meant anything disrespectful or uncalled for at all.  I am sure she there may have been reasons why she could not get back online.

  Hey!!--   Yes, sadly you did have to wait way too much for me and I apologize for that-   I also realize that I am not the only one with a full schedule , and I expect that your schedule is realistically much more involved than even mine as are all those involved in Skinning and other projects.    The Earth doesnt revolve around lil' ole' me, so I did mention to lightstar while commenting on his skin that you have alot on your plate for now but no way was that meant to be a snarky comment toward you.   I can see how on the internet, comments can be mis-construed       but that comment was not intended to be snarky in the LEAST!            

If you don't want to make that skin, that's okay-   I know you would have done that skin alot of justice.   To be fair, maybe if the shoe was on the other foot, I would have also read my own comment and have felt insulted as well- but just want you to know that was not my  intention-  I just have a poor way of expressing myself.

Sorry, Vampothika--  hope one day you will reconsider, because that skin would Rock if you made it.  Don't do it for me!

sorry to sound so harsh babe........ but either way, i just got no time no more...

for christs sake.........are you done? you and your effing 2 cents at every thing i say and do........ ive had enough. just butt out Lightstar, this has nothing to do with you anyway.

No worries, Vampothika -  This morning, I just re-read what I posted  and I have to admit-   I really DID sound like an ass after I re-read my post. Sounded like I was almost ragging you out .  Even though that wasnt my intent,  it DID come off that way --and I regret that. 

You were very gracious to offer to make that skin in the first place, in spite of time restraints,and I appreciate that.     In the future,  you may get   the chance to make it-  and however you are inspired to make it, I KNOW it will turn out awesome, as do all of your past skins-- It will be a real "Gem" that rocks           Make it as a Master Skin and I , and many others, will definitely buy it.    

That's okay -- I need some harsh reality at times ..lol!

hugs

boldy

truly no worries babe.....sometimes my responses come across as "fuck the world and fuck you too" .,..but most times, that isnt my intention....

and I also tend to get ticked off way to easily, im just truly sorry its panned out this way, in another time and demention id probably do the blind, but now i got techno mi, time bender, and 3 other blinds/suites literally lined up waiting for me to execute them

with love and respect.

Kitty.

oh and ps, i also just moved to sweden from australia to be with my gorgeous guy neone6...so yeah im truly time poor atm.  sorry again babe, xx
