As already mentioned a couple of times, we aim to have a new look for aMule 2.2.0.

You know, coders are not artists (yes, I drew that rabbit in the attached skin myself), so we are looking for your help. C'mon, among all these Mac users there have to be a couple of artist.

People like Treviño, deloun and mischamajskij have already done good work on a new look and we are shipping some skins with the daily tarball, but there are still some things we would like to see improved.

Criteria/improvements:

• be multiplatform - look good on Windows, Mac, Gnome, KDE,...
• aMule icon must stay a rabbit
• Rating icons should not use weather forecast icons
• Toolbar icons should be intuitive as we have no text on Mac
• Use open/free icons

The easiest way to try out a new look for aMule is to create a skin. A skin is a simple zip file with png files inside - just download a existing one and modify it, zip the file again and put it in your aMule skin folder to test the look!

You'll find more about skins in the wiki: http://www.amule.org/wiki/index.php/Skins

P.S. I've attached my attempt at creating a skin - unfortunately not very multiplatform.

P.S.S. No, aMule 2.2.0 will not be delayed because of the new look. When the showstopper-bugs are fixed, we will release, the new look can wait - but I prefer it not to.

We're coming closer to aMule 2.2.0 and are already putting the finishing touch on it.

Now we need to update the translations for the new version.

You can check the status of the translations at http://www.amule.org/translations . The translations page is updated every hour from SVN.

If you can contribute to an unfinished translation, then please click on the name of the language and translate the po-file with tools like Kbabel or gTranslator.

Please post a message in the forums that you are working on a translation for a language, to avoid two people doing the same work.
You can upload finished translations to the forums, too, where we'll include them.

Thank you.

Took a while for real life reasons, but http://wiki.amule.org is again open for editing instead of  read-only.

Have fun with it! (in a constructive way)
