Hey, I made a new skin. It's the original Gameboy! I think it turned out really well, and looks really nice on the Pre. The only downside is a smaller screen. But look on the bright side, there's a little more button room. Hope you like it!

I forgot what post it was, but a while back someone requested a NES controller skin based off of the iPhone Emulator, so here it is!

These skins make Visualboy even better! I'm amazed at how many people can create apps, patches and work-arounds like these! Please keep making more!

Ok guys be gentle, here's my first attempt at a skin. I'm going to refine it a bit as well as working on screen size and button placement but it's 3:00am here and I'm beat. Suggestions?

I was doing it to learn how so this is basically just a new look for DanLipson's Empty skin but like I said I'll be working on button placement and what not in future versions. Suggestions?
Looks great! Simple & clean.

I asked this question already, but on the wrong thread. Would it be possible for someone to create a VisualBoy theme that used photo/s of Olivia Munn or Vanessa Lengies? The buttons would still be the same; it would just have a pic instead of a color. I will donate to the artist if they can create it and then maybe even post it here (If Allowed). Please message me if you think this can be done.

I made a skin that is only meant for 1 game: Kirby's Pinball Land. It's one of my all time favorite gameboy games, so I figured I would make it as painless to play as possible. I originally just made it for myself, but I figured I would share it in case there are any more Kirby fans that would enjoy it.

The blue buttons are the left and right bumpers, start and select are labeled, and if you tap the center of the screen, it will tilt the table (how amazing would it be if we could use the accelerometer for this?).

Enjoy!


EDIT: I tried it with Pokemon Pinball, and it works fine, you just won't be able to look at the Pokedex because the down button is mapped off screen. Also, the right button is mapped on top of the B button, so if you select the Blue stage, it will go back a screen, but will stay selected when you choose the stage. Basically, the game is completely playable, but navigating menus takes a bit of work.

I decided to make a skin for Kirby's Block Ball as well. If any of you haven't played this or Kirby's Pinball Land, I highly recommend them. They are some of the best games available for Gameboy!

ok well i made my first skin, its nothing cool or fancy but the button layout is really nice for those of us who enjoy the pokemon games or the games like pokemon.... i dont run my VBA with the skins i just use the button layout with fullscreen.... this way you just touch the main character (middle of the screen) for start. and your dpad thumb is not taking up the whole screen...it works great so give it a try and tell me if you like it =)
