Exclusive skin suites and updates

I get a few emails about the updates to skin suites and if you have to pay for them. My policy is that all updates to the suites are free, mainly because the programs that are skinned get updated frequently and more skinnable things are added to them.

I always put the latest versions at handango (so if you bought it from there all you have to do is redownload the files) and at the fileserver.

All suites have a "changelog.txt" in the zip file where you can see what has been updated/added.

Introducing...GoldenCut

I wanted a summery theme for my device, so I made "GoldenCut":

GoldenCut

I'm not sure about a QVGA version since I won't have time to do that for a few weeks.

Get the skin from my site.

...and while updating

I did small modifications to the SWDeluxe WisbarAdvance Phone Edition skin (changed the volumebubble to fit "vibrate" in) and I added "phone" and "phone pressed" images to the Navigator WisbarAdvance Phone Edition skin + modified the volumebubble.

You only have to update the skins if you have a QVGA Phone Edition device.

Black&White updated




I updated the Black&White skin suite. Lots of features have been added to the programs it skins since it was released but now the suite is up to date.

I also added a bonus White&Black WisbarAdvance2 skin and today theme (for both nonVGA and VGA):



If you bought the suite from Handango you can redownload it from there for free. If you bought it from my site you already know where to get the update. :)
