This post is simply to correct an error in the Top20skins package.


Skin #8, the Hitman is in fact by me and not by 'Petter Made


(ocean@wineasy.se)'. This mistake first occurred on the Quake Grinder


page, but unfortunately was not corrected in time to stop it being


reproduced in Johannes' skins file.



That's it except to say, mess about with the colours ! Defaults were


used in the bitmap to make the colours of shirt/tie adjustable. It looks


much better when you change them to something else. If you've got the


'Reservoir Dogs' soundtrack to play while Quaking, you'll probably like


it more, too.



Ok, that is everything. I wouldn't do this normally, but it seemed


worthwhile in this instance. I'm grateful to anyone who's bothered to


read this. Thanks,
