EZ-Flash USA Forum

Hi all,

I just found this board (and downloaded the Minish Cap skin ), so I decided to post my own work.

This is my Dragon skin. My first custom skin. Almost everything is changed to dragon-related images. Note that I didn't make them

Anyway... HERE YA GOES! Includes the fully compiled loader (made specially to work with the same stats as the EZManager 2.20's loader!) and all the graphics and build stuff and all that good junk. I left Minesweeper alone. Note that with this version of the loader software, EZWord no longer exists. (I, however, HAVE included a graphic for it if you are gonna change it for an older version)

Here... I'm attaching it now.

EDIT 1: HUUUH?! It didn't attach... odd... OH. It's an ImageShack toolbar OK, then... I'm putting it on RapidShare! I'll edit again when it finishes (5mb download XD)

EDIT 2: Done. Sorry for the multi edits... here ya go! Da download link:

ENJOY!

EDIT 3: Good idea, Slade. Here's some screenshots!

Welcome to the forums.

Thanks for the skin. I'll have to remember to come back and grab it from rapid share and get it up on the site.

My Computer isn't running fully at the moment, so all my files are on my old comp. Which means I dont have access to FTP or anything. So no uploading files to the site.

Is there a chance you can run the loader (rename it to .gba) through Visual Boy Advance and do some screen grabs for me please ?

That way when I add it to the Ultimate Skin Thread there is some visuals there for people to decide if they like your skin.

OK, screenshots posted.

Also, I once tried to register as daltonlaffs, but something went wrong, I guess. Not activated? Can you rename my account to daltonlaffs? Cuz I'm daltonlaffs everywhere

Thanks,

Very nice!

Thanks. This took a good few hours to do. I had to find good images, then convert them to bitmaps, then resize them for GBA, then do any more changes needed to make them work.

Anywho, it turned out fine for my first concept skin. I am working on a version for the DS loader *hintie hint*

Any ideas for the next skin? (NO, not Hentai!)

Could you repost the download again, I didn't have a chance to get it. It expired on rapidshare.

In all honesty we need a website that hosts of the skins people have made for the EZ3 and EZ4, because I have run into alot of expired websites lately with skins that I wanted but I couldn't get. Anybody interested in starting a community skin website?

I generally mirror as many files as I can. You didnt notice the great big sticky on the front of this forum section ?

People are more than welcome to email their skin to me with all the relevant information in zip format. This ensures that the skin will get mirrored and I won't forget to post it.

As it stands, yes I missed this skin.

Also, I'll look into renaming your account. I'm not too sure if thats possible !

I noticed. Thats where I got most of my skins, I didn't know it was updated somewhat regularly though, I thought it was an old sticky or something.

The sticky is fairly old. There haven't been a heck of a lot of EZIII skins posted in the last few months.

I do try to update it when I can, and it does appear I missed this one out. Which is a shame.

If we can get Daltonlaffs to upload the skin or email it to me, I'll gladly host it.

Yeah, I just noticed RapidShare dropped it... but don't fret. I have finished a new version of the skin. Behold Dragon 2.0!

http://rapidshare.de/files/35498073/loader_GBA.bin.html

What new features, you ask? Well, a good few. First off, I trashed my old text bg and went back to the default one (it was too hard to read on the rock). I also changed the Help section myself, based on the updated help file here, but even more improved by me. Another awesome improvement is that this version was made with full support of the 'DSPDA' thing made by chuckstudios (thanks chuck), and as always, is made on par with EZManager 2.20 (thanks again Chuck, lol). AND the best improvement? Nearly 1.5MB less filesize! That's right -- you can finally write my skin without waiting until you grow that beard back!

And it is a loader_GBA.bin this time, so you just overwrite and go.

And for that Ultimate Skin Thread, call this skin Dragon Skin 2.0 for me.

And in case you don't know, the way DSPDA works is, this thing runs from a GBA/SP just fine, and from a DS/Lite (both tested) in GBA Mode. So how is this different? If you start this in DS mode (like running from a PassMe), it doesn't matter! It loads in GBA mode anyway! (NOTE FOR N00BS: YOU CANNOT PLAY DS GAMES FROM THIS LOADER!)

Enjoy,

Daltonlaffs

Erm... I don't mean to ran on your parade, buddy... But DSPDA was meant to be skinned. Not left with the firmware frame around it, which was made for my DS4GBA 2.0 skin.

I know it was meant to be skinned, but I don't have any dragon stuff to use as a border yet. Give me some time to find a border, please!

I've mirrored Dragon Skin 2.0 on my site. Slade, could you please mirror this and replace my link? (Bandwidth worries) Thanks.

bio-gaming.com/daltonlaffs/loader_GBA.bin

This will last until I see that Slade has mirrored it.

P.S.> Sorry about the double post, Slade.

I've sent myself a reminder, and will have the file up on the site tonight.

Thanks for fixing it up.

Double post: Can I get the zip file with the jpegs ? You can use EZSkinner or the pda skinner (that comes with EZManager) to create the skins.

There will be (at some stage) an update to the GBA & DS Loader and it would be nice to be able to have the jpg's so people could update their skins should they choose to.
