Ok, I've been writing a simple Word macro to do this stuff. Only implemented 2 replacements or so tough :) Rest is for the one who wants to use it :) Dont have time for all this typing. If you want it, give me a call, and Ill explain you how to make it complete.
Its written for Word XP. The only thing you need to alter once its done is the XML filename...

Greetz, Ikke

Great, my first post here :D

What do u think of transforming the main atomix skins and then putting it on the skin section?

I would be good enough for us in order to wait for real brand new skins :)

I don't know. For the past year or so I used BPM new generation. I like it very much, but.... I'm not so sure if I want VDJ to look like Atomixmp3. It's a powerful NEW software, it has a powerful new look. I suppose that sooner or later as more of the skins get transformed I'll try a couple of them. But for now, I want it to look like VDJ.
PS: I am using the Atomix-fr skin... mainly because I have an easier time seeing the wav forms (color blind) and it has up to 64 beat loops right on the skin.

LOL

one of the main things I like about BPM new generation was that it had the most space available for viewing files. Be effecient with the space, get all the possible features on the face of the skin, but allow for a large window for file viewing! :-)
