Presenting the Bootskin Editor...

from WinCustomize Forums
I finaly compiled A working version of "Bootskin Editor" a tool who anyone can use tocreate bootskins the easy way.
Some features include:

You can graphicaly position the progress bar.
Save as Bootskin Editor document.
Export your created bootskin to Stardock Bootskin.
Edit the ini Code manually.

but thats not all
You can Also preview the Bootskin in Full screen 16 color 640x480 mode.

This feature is very powerfull and is not avaliable in any onther editor.

It will be avaliable to download freely When i find a way to upload it

I cant seem to upload any thing greater than 800 kb . I dont know why but its a restriction.

I can probably host it if you don't have anywhere else to put it. Not very high bandwidth unfortunately.

MSI Setup : http://www.angelfire.com/art2/uzairsajid/bootskin/editor/cabs/bsedit051.msi

You need to download all the Files and Place them in One Single Directory. The total Download size is 1.6 MB. Download the files in a directory like C:\Temp\ and then run the MSI File to install the Bootskin Editor. The Above Files have been scanned with the Latest version of Norton Antivirus Software.

The Full Setup has Been Created. And will be Uploaded today.
Remember Not to disconect the internet Until the Setup Finishes.

Curious....why one needs to be connected to internet during setup? Why can't one just download the file and install at their leisure?

Hmmm... Too big to upload (how big can it be) surely skinstudio is much larger, and that can be downloaded in full.

Staying connected to internet sounds suspicious to me, and those on dial-up may not be able to

I will check it out though

TO big to upload means that:

I got a cheap Dial-up that does not let me Upload Greater than 800KB
There Fore i Split the Setup Into 5 Parts for easy Uploading and created a Launcher Which you download First and then it downloads the Remaining Files. So You Need to Be Connected Untill Setup Finishes.

I dont get that error. Maybe its because I use DAP. But you can use the method which Essencay has Discribed.
