previewing skins

i think the previewing of the skins doesn't
work really.. you can't get a decent view
on the skins, they should be captured in
original size. now you don't really know
what youre downloading.

maybe just a similar sized image which is a small part of the screen at full size would be a good solution

I agree!

I'd rather see a 'cropped' portion of the screen showing the machines in full-size. It's very hard to make the skins out in those tiny screen grabs.

native : as you can guess, this is merely a web space problem. as for now, there are 42 skins shots. full size would be 110 Ko atleast per screenyshot, and 5 Mo for the skins actually online (i can't dare to imagine how much space it would take in some months).

so full size is not possible (we're not deviant art and can't spend too many Mo only for skins... at least not with our actual web space...)

cropped shots could be a solution, yes, but a better one would be that the author hosts some screenshots of the skin (one for machine view, one for pattern editor)...

or maybe i store the full screenies elsewhere...

ok i'll find something
