Hey all. Finally got a chance to start skinning PARIS, and I just wanted to say thanks to Mike Yanoska and Jim Drago for the obviously copious hours of work they've put in on these.
The installation process is actually much simpler than the meticulous instructions included make it look - it's really only a couple of minutes work per skin, and I've had zero problems doing my first couple. A big thanks to both you guys!

Sure Jim, send them on with a note as to which set they belong to and I'll re-upload them to the Wiki.
I noticed that about SSC's knobs, the Aux pan knobs are "perspective" angled back and left, so the center of rotation of the "notch" needs to be in the center of the top of the knob, not in the spot where the notional "shaft" hits the strip. Looks fine on yours. I can't tell if the "notch" also moves elliptically.
Mike's new skin is up on the Wiki now - http://www.kerrygalloway.com/WikiPARIS/wikka.php?wakka=Paris Skins
What graphics programs do you guys work in? Are you using GIMP by any chance?

I got it, Mike, that's an awesome skin! I posted it on the Wiki and installed it myself, it's in my top faves.
Mike, Jim - these are great skins with enormous amounts of love and attention to detail put into them - you ought to *sign* them. A great place for the skin name and author would be in the Project Window, right in the strip where it says "SUBMIX DISPLAY CONTROLS (I think by now we can all figure out what that section is without the title ). That way it'll be the first thing a user sees after bootup; you guys really ought to do it when you have a chance!

Hey Guys,
I just want to tip my hat to all who took the time to create the skins - it honestly take a lot of effort to make things look "right" (plus it really helps when you know what you're doing ).
Anyway, I had the same idea (make PARIS look like a Neve console) at the time when it was discovered that you could do this to PARIS. I thought I'd start with what I thought was the easiest place - the ADAT interface. I can't remember if I posted it to the group, but this is how far I got.
I thought I'd move on the the main mixer, but I couldn't get the buttons to look quite right, and the fonts were a pain in the ass to track down, so I gave up/moved on to things that I actually should have been doing at the time.
Needless to say, I can really appreciate what those of you have done, and I am very vey greatful.
