I've been tinkering the last few day, and getting some cool results editing many of the menus.
Before I go too far into any one of these modifications, what is the criteria for any new views to be eligible for inclusion in future releases of this skin?
I assume the option to enable or disable any modification to an existing part of the UI would be required. Clean, commented code is a given, with an emphasis on simplicity and no unnecessary redundancy.
Other than that, in terms of file sizes or coding practices, is there any specific requirements or criteria the work will be judged by?
It's also a standard practice in other coding communities I work with that any original author be credited in the code for their part. Here however, I see a lot of copy and paste with little or no mention of the author in the code or forum post. If I should use or modify someone else's code, what is the preferred method of accrediting them?
