Umkay, so i'm going to make a skin for my media player:
http://www.purebasic.fr/english/viewtopic.php?t=22056

I'm not shure exactly how I would do this, but I guess i'm going to use ImageGadget for buttons and such.
And I need to know if the mouse is hovering (leaving,entering) over the image gadget, is it impossible getting a event for this?
And I also need to be able to have transparent images in it.

And as you can see in the image it got TrackBarGadgets and a ListIconGadget.
But I have to skin those myself, is that even possbile or do I need to create my own gadgets?

Would be nice to hear from someone with skinning experience.
Any hints, tips and tricks is welcome! :)

First of all, I suggest to wait for my PBSkin....... :D

Well, actually, in my skins, I always customize my gadgets. Everything is done from core(till know). You need images, and windowmousex() and y(). Those are the most important for basic skinning. I will include all them in my first official release. Any problems till that day, tell me and I'll help.

Btw, you can use any gadget, just change it's color :)
