Hello Bruno,
there was and adaption of the minii-skin in the French forum. But as that
forum has been hacked it is not available right now.
So you could try to ask thc (the moderator of the forum),
if he has a copy that could be uploaded again. Here is the link:

I found the skin file here:

Haven't checked language or included files, but this appears to be the authors site.

Yes, it's the author's site, but it is not a QVGA-Version but the original VGA.
Somebody made a QVGA-Version of this skin, and I think, it was published
in the French forum i mentioned.

I looked through a translation (from french) of the author's forum.
His suggestion regarding QVGA was to start with a QVGA Hammerskin rather than try to adapt the posted work.  Forum had no other mention of a QVGA skin.  
Hope you find it, it would be an interesting addition.

A l'origine le hammerskin est QVGA plein écran. Compte tenu de la résolution QVGA je ne vois pas bien ce que l'on peut reduire pour que ce soit exploitable en QVGA, si tu regardes les captures d'écran du minii skin, sur ton ecran tu n'aurais que la moité d'affiché en largeur et cela te prendrais la moitié en hauteur
Tu peux essayer de retailler le skin à ta convenance mais à mon avis autant reprendre le hammerskin original. As far as I can translate this, it means that this version has too much details in VGA for the QVGA-version: too much beatiful details will be lost in QVGA.


But I suppose you know these url's with good QVGA-ideas?

I've decided on the next variant of Hammerskin I'm after, it's an 'all on one screen' number!

Apart from this Miniskin, has anyone seen one, I'm thinking of the main screen in the top left corner, system status top right, weather bottom left and rss bottom right with two rows of launcher icons on the bottom.

This way, being QVGA and very small, there is everyone on the same screen.

It will take me an age to do it myself!
