Artist's Note

The first moment of clarity.

Covenant is my first major Winamp release since 2003. The last year has been spent sharpening my skills and searching my soul. Sadly I've been using explorer.exe as my search application and my soul gets all bloaty and crashes every four or five minutes.

This started off as a bland boring skin for a client, and when they bailed on me, I just went crazy with it. And with Halo 2 then right-over-the-horizon, you can guess my inspiration. :D

My next skin is shaping up to be a little bit more sophisticated and elegant, but metal is fun every now and then. ;)

the framing looks a little odd in some places, even aliased - but the inside is nicely done.

I really like what's _in_ the frame. The huge beveled-chrome frame kills it for me personally.

It's definitely pretty, but it seems a bit extravagant for my taste. Very nice work though :)

Looks a little aliased in some sections, but it's a nice skin.

i also prefer the 2D stuff inside, and find the metal frame a bit clunky

I was un-freaking-believably proud of this when it was done... I put hours upon hours into it. So much pixel work, so much brushing, so much refinement...

It got luke-warm reviews here. I wept.

Did great at DeviantART though.

There was a really awesome, really sophisticated puzzle hidden in this skin, as well as one of Raydream's from the same month. There was a URL hidden in the skin's easter egg and readme, then a transparent bit in the skin itself lined up with an image on that URL to form a sort of "decoder ring". The code gave you access to a few remixed versions of the skins. It was pretty sweet.
