In Resident Evil 5, the biohazard threat has not ended. Just when it seemed that the menace of Resident Evil had been destroyed, along comes a new terror. Chris Redfield, returning Resident Evil hero, has followed the path of the evil literally around the globe. After joining a new organization, Chris heads to Africa where the latest bioterrorism threat is literally transforming the people and animals of the city into mindless, maddened creatures. Players will now have to fear the daylight as much as the night.
The last work day of the week is finally here. Things are very busy around here, and will get even more crazier since the holiday season is approaching. I also see some holiday skins are appearing, and take a peek at our holiday community theme project going on. For now, here is the latest This Week in Skinning!
Summer is starting to wrap up, although the heat down here isn’t letting up anytime soon it seems.

I’m also seeing more and more new faces around, so welcome to any new skinners we have! Now for this weeks picks! Santa – Rear View by Mark Snyder I think we have our first Christmas skin for the year!

You didn’t think we forgot about the promotions for this month, did you? We didn’t forget, just in a crunch for time especially since Jafo is on his North American tour. In case you are new to the site, we have a variety of classes starting at Citizen, Apprentice, Master Apprentice, Journeyman, and finally Master status. People usually are promoted to Apprentice by their contributions to the galleries, and community participation. After that it’s all uphill and the ...
How exactly will it be paid for?
Looking back at the theme submissions from last month, the WinCustomize moderators picked some themes that really caught their eye while moderating. With so many skins coming in, it’s always hard to narrow down a few skins, but I think it’s always cool to see what their favorites are. WOM picked Captain’s Pointer by theAVMAN ”A nice big golden cursor with a unique animation.” Lantec went with the Solid State suite by 2of3 ”A LOT of work involved.....not only...
Ghostbear from Colony of Gamers was in attendance at PAX, and got a walkthrough of Elemental: War of Magic from Stardock’s Paul Boyer. “Exploration is a large part of the game as well, you'll find dungeons, random encounters, treasure. What you really want to find are the elemental shards, once found you'll want to build an outpost and shrine, so that you'll be able to channel the magic it possesses. Once you have multiple elements you can cast spells that combine those ...

“Your character is basically a very powerful magic user who wants to rule the land. There are several ways he can do this. One is by keeping his power inside him and having that power grow so he can use more and more powerful spells. We got an example of that in our demo where the character walked over to a town filled with people and military units. However since he horded his magical power all he had to do was create a powerful spell to wipe them all out. In this case he created a volcano that swallowed the entire town, people and all. Ouch.”
