Create a source bitmap
In general, you need to create a source bitmap and draw all
elements with some painting tool. E.g. Painter program of Windows,
Photoshop, etc. A recommendable way, we suggest you open an existing
official skin file from Sunisoft with SkinBuilder tool and save it to a
bitmap file. Then modify the bitmap file for your design and compile it
to a skin file which you want.
-
Open a source bitmap
Just click on the menu item 'File'-'Open bitmap...' to open a designed
source bitmap file.
-
Open a skin file
Just click on the menu item 'File'-'Load skin file(*.ssk)...' to open an
existing skin file. SkinBuilder will decompile the skin file into a
source bitmap. You can save the source bitmap as a BMP file.
-
Open a v1 skin file
SkinBuilder also supports to decompile a skin file of version 1
(.sui file). If you have some existing v1 skin
files, you can open it and rebuild it into v2 skin files
(.ssk file).
-
Preview
After opened a source bitmap or a skin file, then you can preview it by
clicking on the menu item 'Skin'-'Preview'.
-
Build/Build with password protected
After opened a source bitmap or a skin file, then you can build it to a
skin file or a skin file with password protected. Anyone else who want
to use or decompile the password protected skin file, he must know the
password.
