Formerly called megiddo. I joined TDN Jan. '04, so I guess you know what that means...a gazillion annoying noob questions! Jk,

I've been reading up alot to avoid too many of these.

Bit more about me at my site.

Reskinning just means changing the graphics of the interface: status bar, menus etc. Anyone can test it really, but at this stage I mostly want people to check it out and make sure it's not doing anything weird or unexpected that I may miss in my own testing sessions. When I submit it and pending approval, everyone can peep it and give feedback on the actual design. And on that note:

Any experienced dMod'ers have/want to build a simple dMod that aids in interface testing? A person with a lot of experience would be ideal for a quick turn-around. It would only need to be a couple of screens if not just one. I think all that it would need would be:

small hearts: to test small incremental changes in the health bar

large hearts: to test full health animation of the health bar

Something that hurts Dink, Ow!: for the reverse of the above

gold hearts: to test health max increase animation

level up/down items: to test level number

gold giving/taking items: self explanatory perhaps

stat potions: to test raising/lowering stats

(SimonK's stone head thing would work great for alot of these, because the sprites would be persistent and not disappear after one test...wink wink SK)

And anything else that I might have left out. Phew! Any takers?
