Making Launcher+VG Skins on a Mac? What Apps?

I have just started to customize my NX70v with Launcher Skins and using WonderSilk for the virtual grafitti areas, and I'm enjoying the "face-lift" more than I thought.

I have been reading-up on tutorials for creating these skins, and they all seem to use Windoze software. I'm a graphic designer, and I have always used Macs (since '91).

Could someone please tell me what Mac applications to use for creating:

1) Sony Clie Launcher Skins (I like the Sony one so far)

2) VG Skins for use with WonderSilk.

Are there native Mac apps to create these files with?

Do I need to run VirtualPC (which I don't have) or something? I'm asking about the two elements, but I should also include the status bars as well.

I'll be more than happy to share my designs here when I'm done with them.

Thanks!

I am a nx user as well as a osx junkie. In my travels over the last few years I have been looking for te same software, but it doesnt exist. The only way to compile vg and sb is through virtual pc action. You can always do your designs in any bit map software but to get a working file you need a winbox or the virtual pc software. Hope that helps. if you find anything let me know
