Hi All,
I just wanted to quickly say to Teedius & to Radestock - both of whom have made great skins, that I've worked very hard on Stone Skin & Silver Stone Skin & I don't really appreciate your knocks on this site & on others.
First off, Stone Skin is not a Metallic look-alike, in fact, that's exactly what it's *not* supposed to be. I created the skin so the game would be more enjoyable to play - the original Metallic skin seriously made my eyes bug out.
And, while both of my skins use alot of the elements from Metallic skin as the basis for the graphics, alot has been changed, added, repositioned, upgraded, etc - to the best of my ability.
I get that the 2 of you are programmers or at least have an understanding of XML & have added all sorts of "innovations" into your skin, alas, I am not a programmer - just a guy who's trying to take something good & make it better, again, to the best of my ability.
With as much effort as I've put into my skins (and it's not like they cost anything or any of us have been paid for our work) - it's dissapointing to hear (in my opinion) unfair criticism - especially from others with whom I have so much in common (being fellow skin-makers & all).
Wish you guys the best of luck, but please lay off of Stone Skin.
