I sent a request to their support team. <BR>If I get a response, I´ll post it here.
OK, this is the reponse I got: <BR> <BR>Hello Elwin, <BR> <BR>Saturday, October 05, 2002, 4:19:13 PM, you wrote: <BR> <BR>E> The problem we have is that lots of us here would like to create skins for <BR>E> your program, but we´re stumped as to how it´s done, and how your present <BR>E> file system (.urs) works. <BR>E> We were hoping that you could give us some info how the skin files are <BR>E> created so that we can do our own. <BR> <BR>Just send us pure clockface bitmap (see attached sample) and we will <BR>manually convert it to .urs format. <BR> <BR>Please also note: <BR>1) Skin shape must be round <BR>2) Background color must be white (RGB:FFFFFF) <BR>3) You can also suggest skin hands color.

ok, that´s not really free Form, but it´s a way to do it. Now lets see how fast they bring there Skin Editor when they are flooded with submissions from BaseHeads!
Hmm, that should be a pain debugwise. Make your bitmap, send it to them, get it back with errors, correct it, send it to them again, etcetera.
I think I´ll wait for them to release the skin editor! <BR>Anybody wanna try to hack the .urs files? ;)
BTW thanks for the help guys, especially you Elwin. =)
It might be time to make plenty of skins and therefore make it worthwhile for the skin editor to be released :)
