Nice to see new skins. Visually good.

If I may provide constructive feedback, I only choose to use skins which have a full-width music bar. It's too hard to find a place 2mins after where you are if the bar is not wide enough.

some times it is more pleasing to look at if the thumb seek bar is shorter to fit the theme of the skin.
but i do agree it is hard to find a exact location in the song with the short thumb seek bars. but i've been guilty of that
short bar myself for sake of keeping in the theme for the player.

i can't speak for eyal or the others but i'll try to keep that a longer bar from now on. :D

Just a quick note to help...I find that if I hover over the time line it shows where 2 minutes is and any other time.

Hi Eyal -

Your Helium gDark is my favourite skin and I'm using it together with Monkey Rok 5.5 and LyricsViewer and CueReader.

Would it be possible for you to make your fantastic skin working with CueReader?

This is what you can do to match CueReader colors to gDark:

Tools | Options | Player | CueReader Settings :

Disable "Use external stylesheet" and use these values:
  • #282828
    #1C1C1C
    #FFFFFF
    #759FAB
Tell me what you think :~)

Hi everybody,

Finally, I rolled up my sleeves and I did a CueReader StyleSheet for gDark. It looks nice now and integrates well with the skin.

Download Helium gDark for CueReader
from MediaFire: http://www.mediafire.com/file/fv65p80hd ... eader.mmip
from Filefactory: http://www.filefactory.com/file/b4a84h8 ... eader.mmip

If you have any question, don't hesitate to ask.

Eyal :~)

Can someone help me - I have installed all skins and I still can't get the microplayer to work. If I use the rollup, or if I use the "minimize to microplayer" option, it just doesn't show anything. I'm at a loss...(miniplayer works).

After showering DreadM with praise for his Vision skin, I've changed my mind about my favorite. Helium gDark is the one for me. (DreadM has some fantastic skins but I really prefer a darker skin.)

I find Helium gDark more usable; Vision is just too dark. So thanks very much indeed for this, Eyal.

I'm onto MM4 now and your Helium gDark skin seems fine in MM4 (although no doubt there are some aspects of which I am unaware that can be updated, presumably once we reach a release candidate?).

But the SongInfo, MonkeyRok and LyricsViewer skins just say "was not installed" when I try to install them.

I do hope that, and will be very grateful if, you can take a look at this at some point or perhaps tell me if I'm doing something wrong.

Best regards.

MM4Monkey!

Would love to see an update on this for MM4. This is the only skin that has the type of Micro Player I like, huge fan of this skin.

Yes, I think time has come for me to upgrade to MM 4.
I must cast aside my laziness and roll up my sleeves. :roll:

Expect skins upgrade soon, but I can't promise any delivery date...

Hey I love your Helium gDark Skin, if you are updating to MM4 please fix this issue, too:

The Font is hard to read due the light background.
Attached a picture to point out what I 'm trying to say ;)

Best Gdark is the best skin I've found. Would be cool to see it updated for MM4.
