Hello All! As everyone here knows Win32Lib is the most commonly used lib by this community, and it is thanks to David, Derek, and others that the lib has= matured into what it is today. Each time I create an application I create= custom controls/GUIs to fit my project, but I always thought it would be= great if there was a skinable GUI lib for Euphoria/Win32Lib. For example if= I have a ListView control the vertical scrollbars should be skinable, or if= I have a VTrackBar control the track slider should be skinable. I personall= y feel if EU was to have some kind of lib that will allow custom skinable controls; it would spark some very interesting projects in the future. I have decided to sponsor a contest to see what the talented members of the= EU community can come up with. The rules are as follows: 1. The GUI Lib has to be 100% open source and available to the EU community= . 2. The GUI Lib must be 100% compatible with win32lib. 3. The GUI Lib most allow skinning of the following controls: a.) HScroll Bar b.) VScroll Bar c.) HTrackBar d.) VTrackBar e.) List vertical scrollbars f.) ListView horizontal and vertical scrollbars g.) RichEdit scrollbars h.) MleText scrollbars Note: The contestant can have more skinable controls in addition to the required controls above. But the lib must contain A-H. 4. If you decide to work as a team, the prize money will be split equally. 5. The deadline for this contest is 6/30/2005. Prizes: 1st Prize Winner $150 Cash Retail box version of Cloak v8.0 (Written in Euphoria) 2nd Prize Winner $50 Cash Retail box version of Cloak v8.0 (Written in Euphoria) 3rd Prize Winner $25.00 Cash Retail box version of Cloak v8.0 (Written in Euphoria) Good luck to all who will participate in the contest!
