by rika on Fri Nov 17, 2006 11:20 am This is a type of weather skin that changes depending of what weather it is or if its day or night.
The skin don´t have a background img, insted i maked 108 new weater images that runs as backgrouds, those changes in realtime if the wheater changes or if day turns to night.
By setting all the keepaspectratio to false this skin runs in any resolution, 4:3 or 16:9. All the backgrounds is orginal 1600x1200 to give crisp clear images in any resolution
Another cool thing is that its sort of animated. when going for menu to another screen it fades from colour to gray (you know the same thing as when you close windows) and back to partly coloured. This is made with img show, hide events in a overlay.
Some more screen shots:
Night fall in Sidney, clear skys
Another of the 108 weather backgrounds, Heavy thunder storms:
I might aswell ad that this skin is far from done and now on hold until i know what turn xlobby will take. (All the weather backgronds is done though.)
This is just a post to show what you can do with xlobby if we just could get a more bugfree .exe
My dream senario is xlobby3 with 3d animations and all the flexibility that xlobby have today.

indeed. And the fact that you have used weather images to portray the backdrop...nice...and I mean NICE
