    Good question. There is a bit of a colour feature focus at the moment and while pleasant to have is far from the most pressing needs IMO.

    Podium has quite a few options already, but that’s only my opinion,… so just trying to understand your thingking Igr0, any reason why the current colour options are not enough? (Genuinely curious) 🙂

    I think what sets Podium apart is its sleek and attractive design and looks, which would surely change if skinning was an option.
    I do wonder how I could turn off that brushed steel look or where that texture can be found so I could change it. Just to see how that would look, not really a fan of brushed steel 😉

    Buttons, sliders and various shadow effects are not based on bitmaps but is algorithmically rendered by Podium on startup. The rendering depends on color setup, text sizes and user resizing of panels etc. So it is not a matter of simply allowing users to replace a default set of bitmaps.

    Some elements can be made skinnable, such as the brushed metal texture. At some point I’ll probably support that.

    This is the answer 😉

    Thnx. Looking forward to that.

    Sleek and lovely it is yes. Overall I wouldn’t want to change anything except the brushed metal. Having just that as an option would be enough. 🙂
