As willz now disguises his file names

Pssh :P whats the point of disguising them if you are going to give them away.

But yeah um for people who know how my previous skins and stuff worked they'll know where to look to get what they want, if more people went there, then there would be fewer of these questions ;)

Anyway glad its being liked by some people. I was trying pretty hard to get it out for the release day of the movie (considering I only started it two days ago I think its gone well :P).

Really good work Willz.
However, your content scrambling is not that hard... You removed the linebreaks and indents in SkinInfo.xml, but a lame "Open with Firefox" restores just all of them, including folding of <Tags> :D. It also serves as a table of contents revealing all of your acgybgsegbe filenames and assigning them to the correct window numbers ;)

So: think of a better encryption :P

The point the whole scrambling thing is for the average user, the one's who won't even think about doing what you and other experienced people do.

I already know that its easy to make it readable again, it wasn't meant to be something thats like "FOOLS YOU WILL NEVER CRACK MY CODE". Anyone who's computer savvy will be able to figure it out and I am well aware of that.

It's more to deter those who aren't savvy from editing it :P Besides it doesn't take long to do, I just run it through a generator and change a few file names :P

Its just like the dll's you use, really those don't stop people its more to deter those who don't know any better.

Hidden file attribute for the SkinInfo.xml, works with all files from the Skin folder, still hidden when compressed, still hiddden when extracted, and still work all right, and people usually forget how to make a hidden file visible.
That's a great way to make 'em hard to be discovered! :P
