DRAFT

This page covers a skins2 contest for VLC media player, during VLC 1.0.0 release cycle.

It can leverage the use of the new VLC Skin Editor.

You can work on your skin and submit it until May 28th, 2009 23:59UTC, which gives around 3 weeks of development.

Submission must be done in private (to avoid cheating between contestants), by mailing jb.

A public vote will be held from May 29th, 2009 to June 1st, 2009 on our main website.

Everyone can vote and the VideoLAN team will have a right to veto (yeah, no Colbert Skin ;) )

This skin will be the default skin for the skins2 interface for VLC 1.0.0 or any subsequent release 1.0.x, depending on when 1.0.0 gets out.
