Mario Sunset Wallpaper Thing

I made a wallpaper thing. Used this tutorial as a starter.

I know. It needs work. I have better ideas that I might try out later.

Biodraft ported to CycloDS Evo

Samutz — Sun, 06 Apr 2008 13:00:05 +0000

I finally got around to porting the Biodraft skin to CycloDS Evo, as requested by .::5pYd3r::..

I’m finding that I don’t like skinning on Cyclo as much as R4 though. Having active/inactive icons is nice, but the color config (xml) needs more options and you’re always stuck with the same background for every menu screen. For example, I’d like to be able to make a lighter/darker background just for the game list so that the text on unselected items is more readable. And it’d be nice if you could specify text color of selected/unselected items in the config menu, rather than having the same color for both.

NDSthemes Sucks

Samutz — Mon, 17 Mar 2008 03:14:30 +0000

I’m fucking sick of having to wait hours for NDSthemes to approve my themes when all I’ve done is made a small change to the color. So I’ve decided to stop relying on them and go back to using my own site to host them.

Update On the “NDSthemes Sucks” bit:

http://www.ndsthemes.com/forums/viewtopic.php?id=2452

This made me laugh quite a bit. I’m amused that so many people give a shit about what one person thinks.
I didn’t go on to the NDSthemes forum to flame anyone or the site. I just quitely took down my themes and left.
Hell, I didn’t even post this blog to bitch NDSthemes out. The topic on GBAtemp was mainly about me moving my downloads for my themes so people on GBAtemp could find them (and to show off my newest themes).

But I wrote one whole sentence, one meager complaint, and they all freaked out. The douchebag in the topic (darthdarovit) even took the time to register on GBAtemp just to flame me.

You’d think the administrator of such a great and popular site wouldn’t let the opinion of one person bother him. Not everyone is going to like you and your site. Get used to it if you expect your site to grow.

Steve-O Tattoo for GTA San Andreas

I was digging through old crap today and found my old tattoo mod for GTASA (PC). It replaces one of the back tattoos with Steve-O’s “Yea dude! I rock!” tattoo. Install instructions are included in the readme found in the zip file.

Mac OS X Icon Pack for AppleCor (3.71 M33-2)

Samutz — Sat, 03 Nov 2007 19:22:02 +0000

I finally found a version of AppleCor that works on the Slim a few months ago and decided to try it out after hearing about how good it is. I found that I liked the theme’s layout, but not the iPhone-like icons. So I created my own icons to take their place.
Most of these icons are ripped directly from Mac OS X. It also comes with an icon for the TV-Out icon on the Slim (the original AppleCor does not have it).

This pack requires AppleCor and CXMB. For installation instructions see:
How to Install AppleCor for 3.71 M33-2
After AppleCor and CXMB is installed, simply copy the files from the zip to ms0:/cxmb/vsh/resource/, overwriting the existing files.

Screenshots:

I would have taken more screenshots, but the screenshot plugin doesn’t work very well and tends to leave out layers of the XMB interface.
