First and foremost I owe JJ Ying my most sincere apology. I originally saw JJ’s skin on another web site under a different name and wanted to use the color scheme. But the skin soon turned out to be the same, and I didn’t really see anything wrong with it at the time. To the eye, its impossible to see any real difference. The skin I produced for PA was more than similar to JJ’s and I now realize that my actions and decisions were

I compared pixtudios Nvidea skin to his Poison skin That skin was intended to be a 100% replica. I downloaded it from NVidia and ported it to PA so it would match the win theme. I never, at any time claimed it to be mine. The name "NVidia" could not be used for the skin name i was told so it was renamed. I dont k

If he created both from scratch, why change anything. Simply to make him happy. Why else? But since you put it in that perspective I really dont have to do anything. But I will.

Thats an old screenshot. But this one is a bit more current. Although I plan on making some changes to it. As for the slate comparisons there are some similarities, but since they are both based on the same theme thats expected.

I tried to resolve this to YOUR satisfaction. Apparently thats not possible. Within 48 hours the skin in question will have been modified to the point of unquestionable distinction or removed altogether. Thank you for working with me to resolve the problem. And thats all I have to say.

I'm not using a gradient in toolbar bg. its a solid color. On that issue I really dont understand the statement. To say all I did was change the title bar is in-accurate since that implies I used your skin. Which is not the case. As for Slate. Thats MS's design. Created from screenshots. Many people mimic different OS themes. I have no more claim to it than anyone else. I already have a satisfactory solution (I think).

vf-: I dont know. I would have to download EulB to look at it. As I've already stated I got the colors from another skin altogether. I havent heard back from JJ as of yet. But in the mean time I am re-working some elements to create a greater distinction between my work and his. I dont mind doing that and it will help clear this up beyond any doubt. I will communicate with JJ happily and submit my proposed changes etc.

Skinner JJ Ying: I created the images my self. The colors are the same however. But I have seen your skin under another name on a different site. Thats where I got the idea for the color scheme. They look almost the same. I would be more than willing to include you in a "credits" text file included with the PA skin to help remedy the problem. But honestly, every image I created in PSP v10. I would like to dis
