PROJECT DESCRIPTION
LargeBox for RadInput is a sleek, beautiful new skin that you will love to try!  It builds upon a color scheme reminiscent of Windows Vista, with soft blues and grays.  It also features a gorgeous submit button, which overlaps with the Input control just enough to provide a seamless interface that your end-user will love.  With full cross-browser and cross-platform support, the LargeBox skin will never fail to please.  Enjoy this new skin!

Hello David,

Thank you for participating in Telerik Skin Exchange program!

Your LargeBox skin looks nice. The overlapping button could pose some usability concerns, as it could hide the last couple of letters in the textbox, but otherwise it's witty.

I have added the skin in our skin gallery and am awarding you with 2,000 Telerik points.


Best regards,

Hi Dimo,

I'm glad you like my skin!  Yes, the overlapping button might be a problem.  One could set the maximum characters and width accordingly, though (one example).  Or, instead, create a script so that when new text is added, a space " " is automatically inserted at the end.  That would be a little awkward, but would solve any usability issues.

I submitted another skin, OrangeCream for Ajax PanelBar.  What happened to it?  I didn't hit Subscribe for the thread, either.  I looked on the Telerik Skin Exchange Program link and it only shows the WindowsXP PanelBar skin.  Why isn't LargeBox listed there, or indeed OrangeCream?  I can't see the threads from the forum and now I don't know what happened to my other skin because I didn't subscribe.  Could you please let me know?  Thanks very much :)

So are the Windows XP PanelBar and my LargeBox skins the only ones elegible for the contest?  Or even just LargeBox?  I looked on the skin gallery and LargeBox is the only custom one I see.  Weird!

Thanks again for all the great work,

UIdev

Hello UIdev,

We have received all other skins that you have submitted and they are currently under evaluation. Please allow some time for this procedure to be complete. Thank you. We will contact you with regard to each skin to let you know of the results.

Thanks Dimo for letting me know.  I didn't subscribe for all of the threads... hope that won't be a problem!  I think I have to reply to the thread in order for it to become publicly visible... is that right?
