This is using made from scratch graphics, but designed to match the ever popular Milk suite(s). This looks badass with every light-style theme I tried it with, so hopefully it'll work out well for many of you.
You're probably doing a double take... yes, this IS Winamp 2.x. Some trickery has been used here - probably more than anyone had thought was possible - to make a super-compact skin with no wasted space and a smooth 'flow'.
[B]INSTRUCTIONS:[/B] Before you apply the skin, place your main window (in Full mode) on top, your PL (in either mode) in the center, and your EQ window (in Shade mode) on the bottom. Done. ;)
I'm sure a couple of you about to tear me a new one points-wise for the 'missing features'. Please don't bother, there's nothing I can do about it and it won't change anything and would be horribly missing the point. Remember that most of the standard functions are still 'there', just unskinned or hidden in the right-click menu.
I maintain that this is super-usable, but if you dislike it, please just take it for what it is - a clever little take on WA2 - and ignore it. :)
Please let me know if you enjoy this, and skinners - feel free to use this technique yourselves!
Didn't wanna ramble on any more in the description, but two more things. A larger and more feature-packed version of the skin is coming for Sonique 2, so it'll be nice and stable. I may also POSSIBLY port it to Winamp 3 if anyone still uses that... lastly, the PL is based on Drawing a Blank?, but I have the author's permission I guess. ;) EDIT: Imrik... does that mean I can join 4imp? ;) just kidding.
status !!!! i love you. i tried this times and times again as you saw in the last screenshots. seems.. like.. hahahahahaha. i am the whore! how cooool. love you!! i really look forward to the pack my friend. coooool work. like it really a lot. slick, smooth and just cool. great work mr. NOTHING is missing. itīs just perfect
If you ever wondered who you should love/loathe for introducing the half-skin...
The first one of these I did was just a shaved-down playbar that would fit in an open space in my photoshop layout. After realizing how handy it was, I figured other people would dig it. I was kind of hoping that this would be the idea that finally secured my place in the skinners' hall of fame, but to this day I'm better remembered for pissing off people on the forums than for creating a whole new type of winamp skin. :(
