Galleon allows you to change the images that are used in the various apps by creating you own skins.

A skin file is a zip file that includes all of the images and a special skin XML configuration file called skin.xml

How to create your own skin:
The easy way:

  1. Unzip the default skin located in the skins directory: galleon.gln.
  2. Modify the images.
  3. Zip the files (including the existing skin.xml file) and rename to *.gln.
  4. Put the skin file in the skins directory.
  5. Use the configuration GUI File/Properties menu to change the selected skin.

The harder way:

  1. Unzip the default skin, galleon.gln.
  2. Modify the skin.xml file (it is self-documented).
  3. Zip the files (including the new skin.xml file) and rename to *.gln.
  4. Put the skin file in the skins directory.
  5. Use the configuration GUI File/Properties menu to change the selected skin.
