A readable skin, prepared for your setup.

Skip the color guessing and repeated image crops. Choose a fast setup or submit one image for a tailored Codex desktop theme, then receive a downloadable configuration with install and restore instructions.

The software stays free.

Payment covers the hands-on preparation around it: palette selection, image placement, readability checks, configuration packaging, and practical support. It does not purchase the open-source project, the official Codex app, or rights to someone else's artwork.

Start free. Pay only when preparation saves you time.

Every visitor can install the project, browse the full pet gallery, download the starter files, and follow the tutorials. The paid options are small, one-time services for people who want a prepared result instead of doing the visual work alone.

What makes a good source image?

Use an image you created, licensed, purchased with suitable rights, or received permission to use. A public image appearing in search results is not automatically licensed for reuse. The service cannot create rights for a copyrighted character, photograph, logo, or artwork supplied without permission.

Wide images usually fit a desktop theme better than tall phone wallpapers. Leave a calm area behind the main title and project list, keep the subject away from the composer, and avoid very small text inside the image. PNG, JPEG, WebP, HEIC, and HEIF are accepted up to 15 MB through private storage.

A Custom Skin order uses one submitted image and has no revision. If the image is unusable—for example, corrupt, too small, or clearly missing necessary rights—the delivery window begins after a suitable replacement is received.

Service questions

Am I paying for the open-source Codex skin project?

No. The public installer, gallery, and tutorials remain free. Paid orders cover personalization work: selecting readable colors, preparing image placement, producing a configuration, checking the result, and writing install and restore guidance for the order.

What happens after checkout?

Creem returns you to a verified order page. The page connects the payment automatically and asks only for platform, visual direction, optional color preference, and the image needed for the selected service. No account or copied order number is required.

When will the configuration arrive?

Delivery is within 72 hours after a complete brief and usable image are received. The finished package is sent to the email used at checkout.

Does Custom Skin Early Access include revisions?

No. It includes one tailored skin based on the submitted brief. Clear visual direction and a suitable source image help the first delivery match the intended result.
