Description Well RA made one of the coolest Zelda themes i had seen but for the *COsuckUGH* r4 lol j/k, and i couldn't find a tool to convert it so i pulled out my old copy of photoshop CS1 and started editing it. ended up completely rebuilding the bottom background from scratch to fill the holes where the icons from his skin were, then decided to add a glass effect for easier reading of the DS titles, i added the non-glass version of the bottom should someone want it instead, also i tried to give the icons a glassy effect like the sun shining through them when there highlighted, if you don't like the lens flare i also added the over-saturated but not flared icons as well. hope you all enjoy it as much as i do, and thanks to RA for the original and the motivation. Whoops! my CS1 left some back transperant edges so i went back and cleaned em up with paint!! also fixed the icons were RA got lazy and left pieces of zelda in the (for SHAME!! RA!)lol also took a suggestion from a fan an added an hourglass for the scrollbar and fixed the cheat text color to work better with the theme, also added custom cheat icons, fixed the cheat icons that were backwards and added an arrow to the eye that is closed for fun.

Looks really great. Try adding custom cheat icons and scrollbar. ;)

any suggestions for them, i'll gladly add them today. i think i might do navi for cheats and an hourglass for the scroll bar.

You can work around it by filling the transparent parts with what should be showing from the background. And for cheat bars and cheat icons you can /> choose a color matching the background. Set it to transparent color in skin.xml file.

Nice work. I like the lighting of the buttons.

Wow, this is real quality. Not only did you convert a great theme, but you added your own flare to it, making it better or at least more
interesting. Usually I'd rate lower for the bottom screen middle not syncing right with the bottom and top border, but no, this is one of the
first themes I've encountered that actually deserves a 5. I'm gonna download it to see if it's just on the website, so I'll probably edit
this post. But seriously, A man.

I like this theme. Very cool. Perhaps I should start doing my themes in Photoshop instead of Fireworks? It looks like there's more that can be
done with images. Great job.

thank you all for the nice comments i was kind of worried at first because pixel art is one of my weak spots but it seems everyone has approved
of the scroll bar and cheat icons... by the way i was unapproved for my edit that was a closer match to RA's origonal (not sure why???) but
you can check it out at http://www.teamcyclops.com/forum/showthread.php?p=91608 and let me know what you think of that version... thank again
everyone.

love it a lot. one problem though. i think the cheat icons are reversed... mainly, the chest is close on the open set, and open on the closed
set, andpretty much it all looks backwards.

i can't believe i missed that! what a goober hehe... I'll fix the chest icon and resubmit. thanks for telling me so i could fix it.

Very nice theme.

I can't remember if I commented over at Team Cyclops, but this is a really well done skin. It's faithful to the games art style through out.
Great job!
