Create your own custom table skins!

"To create your own custom table skins for Absolute Poker follow these instructions."

Download the .jpg version of our quarter table to use as a template*. Edit the quarter table graphics with an image editing software like Adobe Photoshop or Paint Shop Pro. You can get an absolutely free image editor here: www.photofiltre.com

You can also start by creating a completely new jpeg image with your own art, but the image you create must meet these requirements:

  • The final picture used for the skin must be saved as a .jpg (JPEG) image
  • The picture must be exactly 800 W x 600 H in pixels
  • The image must be renamed to bg9.dat and placed in the data folder inside the Absolute Poker folder

 

Step by step procedure to install your newly created image as a table:
    1.
  1. Open the folder your image is in. If it is on the desktop, create a folder and put the image inside. Inside the folder, go to "Tools", and select "Folder Options." Click the "View" tab. Place a check in the circle for "Show hidden files". Uncheck the box for "hide extensions for known file types". Click "Apply" and then "Ok".
    2. 2.
  2. You will now see the file extensions for all of your files and be able to change them. The file extension, (like .dat), determines for the computer what type of application the file is.
    3. 3.
  3. You can now see the .jpg extension of your image; right mouse click on the skin image file; select "Rename" and rename the image to bg9.dat
    4. 4.
