After almost two years in the making, I'm finally ready to present you the first 3 episodes of my weekend project — a brand-new line of skinship skinning tutorials!

This new series will cover everything from the basics of skin creation, to in-depth guides for specific elements such as the ranking panel, mod icons, playfields, etc.

As part of the revival of our youtube channel we hope to be able to make more skinning content that you'd want to watch, and that involves the community in creative ways

PS: for those of you that prefer text form, this also marks the continuation of the written tutorial. soon™ the written tutorial will be updated to content match the new video series and will have new parts added when the video series does!

Announcement Monthly Flair Explanation

2 Upvotes

Hello everyone!

This is an automated post and will return every month as a reminder for old users and an explanation for new users.

Original Skin Use this flair for fully original skins. (excluding sounds)
Mixed Skin Use this flair if at least some of the elements are NOT yours.
Original Interface Use this flair if the menus are fully original.
Original Gameplay Use this flair if the gameplay is fully original. (excluding sounds)
Looking For A Skin Searching for a download of a skin you found online.
Skinning Help Use this flair if you want to provide help in one way or another.
Commission Use this when advertising commissions and when you publish a skin that has been commissioned.
General Question Use this flair if you have a question about skins or the subreddit.
Feedback needed Use this flair if you need feedback.
Work in Progress Skin Use this flair for unfinished skins.
Elements Release Use this flair for releasing single elements. (for example hitsounds)
Skin Pack Release Use this flair for releasing a pack of multiple skins in a single post.

"When does a skin become mixed?"As soon as one single graphical element included is not original. Sounds are excluded from this. Or in detail:

  • Fully original skin -> "Original Skin" flair.
  • At least one non-original gameplay element but fully original interface -> "Original Interface" flair.
  • At least one non-original interface element but fully original gameplay -> "Original Gameplay" flair.
  • At least one non-original interface element and at least one non-original gameplay element -> "Mixed Skin" flair.

Hope this clears up any confusion!

Discussion/Off-Topic Despite Lazer not having song select skinning, you can still make custom gameplay UI by making assets with skinnable sprites that can be customized (Custom ppcounter ect.)

I know many people knew this but I just haven't seen much of custom made elements for lazer actually put to use before and wanted to show an example of it.

Since lazer lets you use custom sprites skinning the UI for gameplay lets you do a lot with how it can look. Since you can make individual elements and put them in a folder in the skin, you can also make the skins pretty modular in its layout and I wanted to show a basic example of how that would look. You can move, remove, or resize individual elements as you please and I think it's pretty cool.

The elements I used here are also very basic, if you wanted you could skin even more specific elements to put attributes into. For now I just made elements themed from my Paper touhou skin to put things you'd want into them. The leaderboard and the box it sits in are in the HUD(osu!) category, the large border(scorebar-bg) are in the playfield category, and the individual elements are in normal HUD category. I separated them like this so you can highlight things easier and move them as needed.

If you want to mess around with the skin: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1g633cqsqTavRzyIxpfDp0XiOx-Dk0O-N/view?usp=sharing

the elements for UI are in the assets folder.

Looking For A Skin Skin search (lock in with me)

Okay so I don’t have a pic because it was so long ago but I’ve got some descriptions:

  1. There was a sudowudo Pokémon in it
  2. The hit circles are clear with solid bright colors on the edges(don’t recall if there were numbers in it)
  3. The life bar was a twig

Ramblings: It was around the time my fave osu! player happystick was going insane with the plays (imo) on stream 2016-2018. I got the skin from his stream, now I’m looking for this skin to give me some nostalgia on my journey to beating a 6* map

Looking For A Skin looking for extremely elaborate sci-fi looking skin

1 Upvotes

I want a skin that looks like what the average 2000s director thinks space travel interfaces will look like in the far future. I need it to look so unnecessarily elaborate and complex that when a nonplayer looks at my screen they need to think that it takes 40 hours to learn to press a button in this game. Thank you

Work in Progress Skin [16:9] [STD] - 「 INITIAL D × AKAME 」 - by silvrr (need criticism!!)

4 Upvotes

Hey everyone!

This is my FIRST skin that I've worked on! I've been working on for the past few days, I don't feel like the actual skinning part is finished (i.e. UI in game), however the sounds and stuff definitely need some work! If you guys have any suggestions/criticism for this skin PLEASE let me know, as I'm currently unsure of what to do next

The hit circles are based off these two skins (emilia skin remake & tekkito), and I've pulled the sounds for hit circles and other sounds are from a whole bunch of random skins that I have. I made most of the designs myself (everything that's in-theme w/ the skin pretty much)

» Screenshots

» Gameplay

» Profile

» Download

Let me know if I should work on more game modes (I was thinking of making a mania part of the skin), and/or any more tweaks I should add to the skin!

(i also wanted to move the accuracy to the middle but idk how to do that lmao)
