BSP SkinMaker

BSP SkinMaker is a tool especially created to help you create a custom, personalized skin for the popular BSplayer v1.

The application isn’t really user-friendly at first but once you open the guide manual and start reading, things start to make sense and you find yourself creating a new skin in minutes.

BSP SkinMaker is comprised of four windows: Images, Display & GUI, TrackBar - VolumeBar and a preview window. With BSP SkinMaker you don’t need any coding skills of whatsoever because the application is in fact and assembly tool. What you do need are the graphic elements that BSP SkinMaker will help you put together into a custom interface for your player.

You can add an image that acts as the main window of the skin, and assign fonts to it. Then, you are able load graphic elements of various formats and assign button functions to them. This is a simple process as the application provides you with complete lists of all the functional buttons and actions. It actually all comes down to pairing a graphic element to its corresponding action.

In case the graphic element you use isn’t all that explicit to its user, you can insert descriptions for that button. The description is displayed when the mouse hovers over the button.

Positioning the buttons on the interface is another simple task. You can either drag and drop the elements in their destined places or use the coordinates fields to enter specific X, Y coordinates for them.

As far as how text is displayed in the created interface, the application allows you to use any font that is currently installed in your Windows Fonts folder.

Two of the most utilized controls of the player, the trackbar and volume bars can also be customized using BSP SkinMaker. You can set their type (orientation), assign custom images to them and have them change color when certain actions are applied to them.

Though a bit rough around the edges BSP SkinMaker is a very practical tool if you want to design your own BSplayer skin.
