Nightburn Posted January 11, 2002 Share Posted January 11, 2002 Here is my Blackcomb Winamp Skin that I have been working on for little over a week - I think its finally worthy of version 1.0. This version includes 3 different colors(not everyone liked orange) and cursors, It was designed to go with the Blackcomb Pro 1.1 visual style by mterlouw. It should also go well with watercolor by binary since it has the same titlebar. I do not like skins that are hard to use, ease of use was definitely my first priority when creating this skin. I hope you all enjoy it, I worked pretty hard on it. If you find any bugs or have any suggestions email or PM me. To install the skin simply unzip the contents of the zip into your winamp skins directory(because its actually 3 different skins). Thank you, it has been fun.

Osiris Posted January 12, 2002 Share Posted January 12, 2002 Damn thats nice work mate, almost makes me want to go and use Winamp again. Dont suppose theres any chance youll make a Media Player blackcomb Skin? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
babis Posted January 12, 2002 Share Posted January 12, 2002 Excellent workd NightBurn. osiris, an easy way out... take the skin and convert it... i think the winamp skin to wmp skin conversion utility is included in the new Bonus Pack for wmp. I did it a few times... it's not that bad...you just lose some of the functional features ..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stingray Posted January 12, 2002 Share Posted January 12, 2002 Thanks, I?m using the Blackcomb visual style. Good work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hankster Posted January 12, 2002 Share Posted January 12, 2002 ...that came in the wmp xp bonus pack will let you use this skin w/ wmp. you have to take the "1.0" off the name of the .wmz files for the converter to work for some reason, but then it does just fine. problem is the playlist/eq won't dock w/ the the player, but if you really REALLY must have that skin... hank[ster] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Osiris Posted January 13, 2002 Share Posted January 13, 2002 damn I dont have that bonus pack, but some other media player skins ive got that have been converted from winamp, they are all dodgey, not smooth and while they look alright arent worth using, so rather then ruin the skin by doing that look since the release of sonique, what would that be well over a year ago, then I moved on Media Player 8 in XP, im finally going back to winamp.

Nightburn Posted January 13, 2002 Author Share Posted January 13, 2002 I'm glad you guys like it :) I really like it too, Its on my mind quite often, I'm trying to come up with creative ways to improve it. If anyone has any ideas - please post them. I just found a bug, the wrong cursor is displayed for the playlist titlebar. I fixed it and uploaded a new version to my webspace. I can't believe I missed it. Download 1.01 here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hankster Posted January 13, 2002 Share Posted January 13, 2002 wmp8 bonus pack download skin converter plus a bunch of other goodies... true the converter isn't perfect. i wanted to convert dangeruss's dream for winamp skin, but it came out w/ little black specs on it for some reason. now if someone wants to make a cool new wmp skin, do one based on the dream skin! heck, an xp dream theme would be pretty darn cool me thinks... hank[ster] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nightburn Posted January 13, 2002 Author Share Posted January 13, 2002 Alrighty, Here is version 1.1 A friend of mine requested a white version so here it is.*shrug* ( not that these re-colors are hard to do) I also fixed a bug with the oscilliscope displaying orange on all color versions.

ak73 Posted January 14, 2002 Share Posted January 14, 2002 ;) Love the whole Theme first the VS now the WinAMP theme Only one Request Skin VidAMP? http://www.dtek.chalmers.se/~d8sunch/winam...ins.html#vidamp VidAMP is a plugin for winamp to allow playback of all video files. Its Great! It says in the readme thats its skinable. Anyway thanks for considering it Nightburn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nightburn Posted January 15, 2002 Author Share Posted January 15, 2002 Sorry I don't think I feel like I skinning Vidamp. I tried the plugin and I felt that it was second rate and somewhat hoakie - if you know what I mean. It played video very poorly on my machine, very choppy and no options for brightness/contrast. If I missed something about this plugin, please post. If you want to skin vidamp yourself I'd be happy to send you my PSD file for pledit.bmp - just send me an email.

ak73 Posted January 16, 2002 Share Posted January 16, 2002 no problem nightburn. :) strange as it runs beautiful here on only a p3 600 . did you check the options? it supports for activemovie etc (it uses the windows media player engine). not to worry about the file you have as i wouldn't know where to start with it. Thanks for replying to my post. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ankle-Boy Posted January 17, 2002 Share Posted January 17, 2002 When I try and apply one of the skins WinAmp3 crashs for some reasson :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nightburn Posted January 17, 2002 Author Share Posted January 17, 2002 This skin was not designed for Winamp3. Winamp3 is still beta so heh I can't believe im saying this, "I cannot provide support for Winamp3 related issues." It was designed for Winamp2. I suggest using Winamp2 still, it's a better product in my opinion. It's much cleaner, proven and not so bloated. The only suggestion I have for making the skin work in Winamp3 is to try to rename the wsz files to .zip and then uncompress them to there own respective folders and then try applying the skin.

ikonis Posted January 18, 2002 Share Posted January 18, 2002 just wondering if you could make a watercolor version of this? like based on binary's theme then youd be the coolest person in the world Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nightburn Posted January 18, 2002 Author Share Posted January 18, 2002 Ikonis, I'll think about it....... I'm not quite done with the Blackcomb version yet. Maybe after the next release I'll see what I can whip together for you. No promises at this point tho. The next version will include a new color for a total of 5, numerous bug fixes and VidAmp. Thanks for all the support guys! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
