There have been so many developments in the skinning world recently that I had to talk some more about it. Many new skins have been created and submitted to the official database. Among them you’ll find Indiana Jones, Batman, a Wii inspired skin and much more. Some people even created skins based on add-ons such as Messenger Discovery and Messenger Plus! itself.

To celebrate these achievements, a skinning contest will be organised during summer. You will all be invited to participate and showcase your talents and ideas. Special prizes will even be distributed to people who just use the skins and don’t create any. So, if you have ideas for a new cool skin the world may enjoy or if you were already planning on updating your existing creation, now is the perfect time to start working on it. The official documentation, guidelines and special tutorials can all be found in the resources for skin creators page.

All the details surrounding this contest will be posted on this site in June. People in Montreal, get ready for a new excellent Fantasia movie sponsored by your favourite add-on in July. Stay tuned!
