##WORK IN PROGRESS##

Info:It's incredibly tedious to design these things.
For example, the chat box is linked with the npc dialogue box; named "sysbox" or something. They share the same files anyways.
It's not just one little file, there's 8 minor files which include; upper left, upper mid, upper right, mid left, mid right, down left, down mid and down right.
That meant I had to customize the files to fid the npc dialogue window as well look good on the chat box. Right now I think I have a nice mix and it looks good.
Not everything is fixed. I got some more files to edit now thanks to Nilami(thank you <3), and I'll maybe design new windows for the auction house and mail box.
I'm not even sure I want to make for the auction house, as it's not used at all now, by anyone.
My goal with the skin is to make two versions.Version 1 will be the current one, where it's more of what you see here now.
Version 2 will be a skin I'll change so it looks like this one, but more "default looking".
It will then be submitted to the GM team, and hopefully it will be accepted as the new default renewal skin.
Since aiming for it to be default is pretty "high up there", if it's featured as a "renewal skin download!" on the main page that would be amazing.However, making Version 2 means I have to change and design everything. Which is a lot of work. I want to ask the GM team first though.
Small notes:#The quest window got a minor makeover, it simply looks slightly better. I wanted to redesign it entirely, but it looks really good from before and all I had to do was fix it up a little.
#I opened and closed the game and logged in roughly 42 times to get the chat box match the kafra correctly, at the same time making the design look good.
#Equipment/Stats window isn't completely done. I need to rework the design for version 1, but version 2 will be easy.
#Inventory is done. Version 2 might have less stripes.
#Skill bars are done. They're gonna look like that.
#Skill tree needs some work on the lower bar.
#Party/friends window is done.
#Storage window will be updated to resemble npc dialogue/chatbox boxes, I don't have the files yet but have seen a skin that does have it. Maybe Nilami has it too, haven't checked.
#I edit this when I have time, I can't put an estimate on this but I set it as my goal for the coming months in summer to complete version 1 and 2.#Comments are welcome, I want this skin to be the best yet; please give feedback, I'll fix things as I see them and feel it's appropriate, but more info from others makes things change and be complete faster.
