Touch Screen interface finished and open for business

[vaporhat]

The problem with touch screen's is one you have one you want one in every room

so true. it's addicting. Once you start shopping for one in the bathroom you know there is an issue

All my touch screens are 1024 x 768, extended into other rooms over CAT5 -> VGA & CAT5 -> serial. All are 15" Elo's and the same resolution.

I claim first download! I will see if I can adapt it to my system as I am ready for a new skin. My old one works great and therfore is boring. Time to piss off my family by changing everything.

Thanks for sharing,

Your welcome

I spent all my time finishing these version's for the Xlobby faithfull, now thats finished with i am gonna finish up my version which has control screens for my equipment. Some stuff in the released skin i just dont use myself, web, web cameras etc...I mostly use it as a big remote control with girder/usb-urit and for music and movies.

Once i finish mine i can turn my attentions to a new skin i am designing on paper while at work...shhh....dont tell the boss. Its gonna be a kinda cyber punk industrial Phillip K Dick inspired theme, well...thats the idea.

I cut my teeth on photoshop making these 2 skins.

Hope you get some use out of them anyway...

Photoshop...I wish I had the patients to learn it.

Very nice work!!!

[PhilB]

I know enough Photoshop to be dangerous. I have lots of custom control elements in my existing skin that I will migrate. I also plan to use your basic design but do significant reformmatting to get more screen real estate organization that will please my demanding users.

I will repost the hacked version when I get finished.

[Grooby]

good luck with that...just finished my own personal version as of 5 mins ago

[Grooby]

As I was working on moding this skin for my system I started to wonder what would need to change when Steve releases v3.

2 items jumped to mind:

1 - 2 way RS-232 so I can recieve and react to inbound RS-232 messages from my amp. (think change button color or display zone status)

2 - Better control of button states. When on really is on because the amp told me so.

I am sure there is lots more to consider once we see the feature list but I am focused on the little user elements that make the difference.

Maybe Wes can comment???

Great skin!
