This document descibes how to make opieplayer2 skins.

First decide on a name for your skin, and make a directory in the opieplayer2 skins
directory.

mkdir $OPIEDIR/pics/opieplayer2/skins/someCoolSkin

In this example, the name of your skin will be someCoolSkin,
and will appear in the View menu of the player.

You can copy the files from the default skin to look at and use.

The skins work off of an indexed mode black image mask to position where the button
should be. The skin_up and skin_down images show how all the buttons 
are to be drawn when pressed and released.

**** All _mask_ files need to be index mode (256) png images with an
     transparent background ****

You will need _all_ these files:


background.png          general background pixmap (rgb)
skin_down.png           audio button skin for when buttona are pressed (rgb)
skin_mask_back.png      audio scan back through file button mask (indexed)
skin_mask_down.png      audio volume lower button mask (indexed)
skin_mask_forward.png   audio scan forward through file button mask (indexed)
skin_mask_loop.png      audio loop mode button mask (indexed)
skin_mask_next.png      audio go to next in playlist button mask (indexed)d
skin_mask_playlist.png  audio stop audio and show playlist button mask (indexed)
skin_mask_play.png      audio play button mask (indexed)
skin_mask_prev.png      audio go to previous file in playlist button mask (indexed)
skin_mask_stop.png      audio stop button mask (indexed)
skin_mask_up.png        audio volume louder button mask (indexed)
skin_up.png             audio button skin for when buttons are released  (indexed)
skinV_down.png          video button skin for when buttons are pressed (rgb)
skinV_mask_back.png     video move forward through playlist button mask (indexed)
skinV_mask_down.png     video volume lower button mask (indexed)
skinV_mask_full.png     video change to full screen mode button mask (indexed)
skinV_mask_fwd.png      video move forward through playlist button mask (indexed)
skinV_mask_play.png     video play button mask (indexed)
skinV_mask_stop.png     video stop button mask (indexed)
skinV_mask_up.png       video volume louder button mask (indexed)
skinV_up.png            video button skin for when buttons are released (rgb)


You can position the buttons anywhere using the button mask. The skin_up and skin_down images
should correspond to the mask positions, otherwise they wont work.
