320x240x24 - iPod Video
I've been working on the graphics alone for a few hours, and so far, I have all this together:

It's literally pieced together Mini-iTunes for Windows...
if anyone has any criticism, post about it!

Well for one, if you pieced it together from someone else's work (iTunes) then redistributing it is copyright infringement.
-
It's also VERY similar to another iTunes themed WPS already in the Wiki.
I hope nobody minds me posting a direct image link to there. If so, I'll remove it.

Clicking takes you to the wiki.

Considering the fact there is already a similar WPS in existance, you should focus your obviously abundant artistic abilities on creating a different styled WPS :)

I didn't take any of my thing from StevenDean's WPS. I made mine from iTunes Screenshots...haaaa...copyright infringement...alright...Mesis smart :-P
so I'll start another one...I guess...

Only a little bit late Dan. Good effort though, I like your style.

Alright, as I'm writing this reply, I'm finishing up the wps for the theme that I posted about earlier this morning. Now, I know TECHNICALLY copyright infringement laws kick in, everyone KNOWS that it's iTunes, so wouldn't it more be advertising then infringeing? I'm not taking any credit for making the icons, I give all the credit to iTunes. I don't know...I just worked hard...and I'm definately finishing it for myself anyway, but I don't know if it'd be legal to put it up on the wps wiki page...anyone know?
-
Dan, the only reason now not to put it up is that I already have one there that's virtually identical. It would only be two of the same wps, and that's redundant. Yotto and lachlan already pointed this out.

While it may be really similar, I believe his is of an slight improvement to the current WPS. I don't think it really matters if it is really similar since it is up to the user to as which he/she likes.
-
i agree
the case has been the same with my iRock theme, modified into iRocker (and well done !)
and now everyone can choose the one he wants
cheers

Awesome.
Well, from staying up until 5 this morning working on it, I finally finished it!
As I'm posting this, I'm uploading the files for the wps wiki. I really like the outcome for a first wps, and I'm already working on a couple more: 1 Alienware themed player by my friends request, and a Very...different theme then anything else on the wps wiki. Very round, even the progress bar.
