Description NEW STUFF! ADDED new Playlist and Media Library graphics Thanks to R Peter Clark!! Also Added color corrected silver theme.

This skin goes with the Blue and Silver XP theme that is standard on all Xp Systems.

The skin does alot of neat little things-
Resizes to fit on screen, slides to the right to hide (nice effect)
snaps to the edge of the screen, Animated Eq cover, and More.

UUL coded the Skin Resizer
Leechbite Added the snap to edge and also tweaked the skin.
Quad - Graphics and coded all other functions.

.Note: If you change Screen Resolution after opening the skin hit F5 to resize skin.

..Also if you want to change the colors of this skin to a theme you got Try -Color Editor [link] It will show up in your skin
by right clickin on skin and then choosing Color editor

Its too long. Have you ever tried this on a big screen monitor? It needs the ability to be shortened, I only need it to go 1/4 of my screen on a 26" Otherwise, its pretty compact. GJ

Very nice! It's Skin Consortium's "Vision", but for XP instead of Vista. I'm running Vista and thus will stick with "Vision" but am downloadng this for my XP friends.

this skin is awesome.
although, one thing i would like to see it do, is when i mouse-over the compacted part of it, it slide open, and when my cursor leaves the area it compacts again. like a skin named Hellemium.

i dont like having to click a little button to slide it out, and have to click a little button again to slide it back in. so, maybe an option for click to slide, or mouseover to slide?

and maybe adding a button for a popup equalizer, in addition to the one thats already there (for those like myself who prefer a larger EQ)

but other than those two things, looks awesome, and seems to be good and functional as well

Nice skin .

I'm much happier with your presentation of it than a lot of other skinners. Most other people are like "ZOMFG, DON'T TOUCH MY SKIN!!11oneone".

Whereas you understand people have different VS's, and even LINK us to a colour editor.

*Hugs*

Pretty good. I haven't been using it for too long, so this comment may just be from missing an option, but does it auto maximize out to the length of your screen? Is there anyway to stop it going the whole way? This probably works well in smaller desktops, but I'm running 1920x1200, and trust me, it's way overkill. Awesome skin though. I'll continue using it either way.

It is a great skin. is there any way to make it so its always on top, well the tab. I dont know if I dont know where it is or if it just isnt added. It would be really nice if it had that feature. still without it best skin i have seen

Very nice! My new skin...
But the color editor won't let me edit every color in the skin... How would I change the baby-blue song name color in the Silver theme to something a little darker?

EXELLENT concept. Very similar to the NonStep thing I just downloaded, but a whole hell of a lot prettier.

Things I especially like:
-I'm a huge fan of the bar player concept.
-what's the font for the songticker? very readable.

Stuff I would change:
-the size of the non-playback control buttons is tiny! (especially bye, minimize) this could just be because of my 1680x1050 resolution, though. widescreen makes the bar even better.
-allow the bar to hide to both sides of the screen. i can't stand when stuff covers my close button.
-enable docking
-the contrast on the random, shuffle, and crossfade labels has almost zero contrast. i'd go for images with these, since they've got pretty well established icons.
-get rid of the XMP logo thing on the left. it's taking up a ton of space.
-having the volume and progress bars in their current locations and styles is VERY confusing. it looks like the volume slider is just the metric for the progress slider, and it took me a little while to figure out
-what's that random little widget over on the right that doesn't seem to serve any purpose?

I know it sounds like a lot more whining than praise, but it's a lot easier to find stuff you dislike. If you really do something right, no one will notice you did it at all. (now what movie did i hear that line in?) Keep up the work and I'll keep up the feedback. I get the easy part.

thanks alot,

I like the concept of the sliding bar both ways, but hard to code. i odnt think i will change that aspect.

the contrast I can change to but I looks good on my computer.

Did you look under the XMP logo?

progress slider I may change...

and the widget was for sliding the skin back, I need to fix it.

thanks!!

How about when the start bar is set to auto hide, the player goes away with it and comes back when it pops up again? Dunno if that's actually possible....

Er, problem, it won't work on multi monitors, it jumps back to the first screen when I move it to the second one....

After using it for a while, it has become my favorite WinAmp skin. There is only one thing I'd change: when a button is "depressed," I wish the color change was a little more dramatic. Sometimes it's hard to see what features are turned on or off.

Overall, though, an excellent skin. Thanks for posting it!

Solid idea. If this came in more colors to go with other themes, I'd be all over it. Still gonna download it though!
