EDIT: I got so excited about the skin I left the post without downloading it, but I am not getting a link to download.

[Eyal]

Thanks nynaevelan, I knew you'd like it, you told me you like blue colour, so I made it with you in my mind...
This is your idea and I thank you for that.

Download links are on first post, I changed it to FileFactory because MediaFire had problems and I don't like it displaying porn ads.


I will make a 4B skin versions, try to make it slimmer and new colors are coming too!

My fault, I didn't scroll down to see the option to download with the basic installer.

Hi Eyal,

I'm not getting the nice POPULARC fonts in the player.
Though they're present in windows/fonts/

Any idea what I'm missing?

[Eyal]

Hi Dreadlau,

If it's the first Cafe skin you have installed, It should work if you restart MM.
MM is building its font list only at startup.

This BLUE version is SUPERB... I fell in love with it right away! EXCELLENT, thanks!

[Eyal]

I'm glad you like it Zzaj

All skin files can now be downloaded from MediaFire and FileFactory.

Eyal,

This skin rocks!! I have been using mm-ultimate, but I was having some problems with it and the script owner is no longer active. It took me a while to find a new skin that grabbed my eye, but I found it. I downloaded cafe fort and I love it. Do have any plans on making a black version? Thanks for skins

[Eyal]

Yes, I had many plans for this skin, among black. My last attempt was Café Brulé with distinctive glossy colors



but had problems to make information fit the player the way I wanted it to... so I left it on the shelf.

I don't know if Cafe skin is so popular to worth time to build it, but you're the first to suggest this color, so I will add it to my list.

I really like the Cafe skins, they are different, unique, eye-catching. My only issue is that they are bigger top to bottom for me to use all the time. I would be in favor of a black one. And if you can tell me how to make them skinnier I would use them more often.

Great job, though. I am not trying to be critical, I just have an older small screen laptop.

[rovingcowboy]

eyal.

how many messages do you see for my skins saying that people like them?

yet i keep updating them, i know someone out there might come by and see one they like and download it.

if they download it and it is messed up it will turn them away from monkey. so i try to keep them updated and fixed, at least for every new mm version.

yes it takes time but its like i say for songs. if they are taking the time to sing words to the song then they must be important enough for me to hear them, if not then they should not sing words. so if the skins are not important for the people to use them then they should not be posted for others to download.

i think your skins are great you get a different feel to them, which is needed, every skinner has a different touch to making them and we need all the different skins we can get.

but if you can't spend time to fix or update a skin cause of work or school taking your time, then thats fine but it would be a good idea to post you retired that skin from getting updates.
that way the users would know what they see is what they get on the retired skins but don't you dare stop making them your too good to lose. now me i could stop and nobody would mind but i aint stopping although some wish i would.

[Eyal]

Thank you for encouraging me RovingCowboy. You're a kind guy. Did I tell you your skins are alive? You do a great job too.

I've put the skin on the shelf, but not abandoned it.
It just became to complicate for my liking, so I'll try to keep it simple in next version.

I would be in favor of a black one. And if you can tell me how to make them skinnier I would use them more often.

Thanks rrfpacker, it's now on my list.
Look further for skinnier versions, including a black one.

Eyal :~)

I have tried to install all of these beautifully designed themes, but with the same miserable effect - after the installation is over and I switch to, for example, Cafe Moka 5B, I discover that the main player is missing - there's just an empty panel with a dark brown background down there. What do you think the problem is? Thanks in advance.

[rovingcowboy]

no idea what it is until we get more info from you.
