ok, well there is no way i'm going to be able to finish this before e3 and do everything else we need to get done, so i'll try bribery!

shackers who know how to do flash and have a little free time today, design our flash player and you get $100 (via paypal) and second best gets $50

http://www.jeroenwijering.com/?item=skinning_the_JW_Player
matching the color scheme of shacknews is the #1 priority, along with being nice and minimal. integration of the shack logo somehow http://cdn.shacknews.com/public/images/vidoverlay3.png is also a plus if you find something that doesnt look dumb.

honestly dont care much at all if it differs much from the original outside of color matching. i just know i spent a couple of hours and got nowhere and i'm sure someone who is actually smart could do this quickly.
