ANA 2 GUI creation

I wanted to personally thank the developers for making it possible to create new ANA 2 GUI's! I played around last night to see if it was possible. I'm hopefully going to create a more professional looking GUI than my experiment here, but of course that's going to take much more time than the few minutes I spent making this lol. Just wanted to make sure it was possible first. Thinking of making an old ANA-log Synth Panel in the end Anyone else interested? EDIT: Yes, that sound uses a 40 pole filter sweep ...Another thank you to the developers... AWESOME FILTERS! I haven't had a sweep like that since The E-MU Morpheus/Ultraproteus Z-Plane Filters

The Cosmos background is fabulous

Wow, thanks Oakmasta. If you wanna see it in "real-time" I just packaged it up, and it's on my server here:

http://ambietica.lyonsdenmultimedia.com/Downloads/Cosmic-GUI_AmbieticA.zip

To install on Windows, just put the "Cosmic" folder in your: C:\ProgramData\Sonic Academy\ANA 2\GUI\ Then launch ANA2, and in the "Settings, Select Skin" drop down menu, choose Cosmic. It's available in all sizes, but still very unfinished as only the "Main Skin" has been changed thus far. I am unsure how to install on a MAC though, and if anyone knows, please post it here for everyone. It would be kindly appreciated.

Oh and also, to make this I have to change the image properties from "Index Color" to "RGB" mode, so if it doesnt work, or looks wonky, that might be why. If anyone decides to give it a go, please let me know if it works so I can continue creating more, and probably finishing this one up.

I've actually been using this skin while sound designing, as it's awesome watching Wavetables move through space lol

Buttons are now 3D and glow "ANA Blue" when they are on, including FX buttons, brightness reduction within nebular displays, and of course more nebula within alternate FX and browser panels, along with the new "Cosmic" logo to mention a few things ...Still working on it
