Wow. :blink: Than I wonder how some other themes based off of other stuff around here succeeded when I know permissions weren't always asked. They were just done and no one complained. :wacko:

If you are refering to linux and longhorn stuff that's all open source anyone can create it. If you mean there are themes that people moded against others wishes that should be reported as it's against board rules.

This is hilarious, there's about 15 pages with a bunch of guys ogling at a freakin VISUAL STYLE like they should be ogling at a GIRL, and as soon as someone says something that MAY just cross the authors just a TEENY bit, they try and kiss their feet. Sit back in your chair, realize you're spending more time posting on the forums than you are with your loved ones, and then realize that you can wait for a freakin visual style.

Over and out.

Okay first of all I'm not "oogling" or "kissing anyone's feet". And I sure as hell spend plenty of time with loved ones. Smart assed lahrd of a neopwi.

At first I didn't understand why the continuing wait on the theme with it being finished. I wasn't saying I see themes modded against author's wishes. I meant that I didn't expect them to ask for permissions on original works if it's based off of operating systems or whatever else. So I didn't see a point with Winamp.

So now you people can back off cuz I'm over it now. God damn.

Well said. I didn't post before because I feared that I would get banned for what I was going to tell these guys to do. You guys don't care we know but quite frankly we don't care what you think.

As to you Trunten I think that this classifies as any other style would. Someone created a style for Winamp and to elaborate on it you must have permission. It's a common curtiousy amongst themers.

Perhaps maybe this is just me, but while the style is good, I'd prefer one that matches the WA5 skin exactly. This means, centered titles in the title bars and the line that goes across the middle of the titlebar.

This Winamp Style seems to add some of the artist's own flair into it, and if you're making a visual style that imitates another skin, interface, or OS, creativity should not be the name of the game. The skin should be the best attempt to match the appearance of whatever you're trying to imitate.

The skin itself is nice, and does look a lot like Winamp 5. However, it does not look exactly like Winamp 5, which is what I would expect from this kind of visual style. I would go on, with other things I feel are at fault, but I doubt it would be appreciated or taken into consideration. My two cents. .

how about u try making a skin its not as easy as you think. im pritty sure you cant make the line exactly like winmps because if the title is bigger than "winamp" it will overlapp the lines and look ugly

    • Amazon Deal: These AMD RX 9070 XT GPUs are very good offers

      By hellowalkman · Posted

      Amazon Deal: These AMD RX 9070 XT GPUs are very good offers by Sayan Sen Following the release of AMD's new RX 9070 GRE last week for $549 (our review), AMD currently has a couple of great deals on the more powerful 9070 XT wherein the GPU is on sale for $650. We already covered the Gigabyte Gaming model a couple of days ago which is still live at that price. Aside from that, the white ICE variant is also at the same price (purchase link under the specs table down below). This is interesting to note considering white cards are generally more expensive as they come with a premium attached. Similar to the Gaming model, the ICE card too employs Gigabyte's WINDFORCE cooling system which combines multiple design elements such as alternate-spinning Hawk fans, a vapor chamber, and composite heat pipes to manage heat dissipation. The Server-grade Thermal conductive gel further helps in this department. The inclusion of a semi-passive cooling mode allows the fans to remain inactive under low workloads, which allows for reduced noise operation during lighter usage. There is dual BIOS switch that allows toggling between performance and silent modes. The tech specs of the card are given in the table below: Specification Value Boost Clock Up to 3060 MHz (Reference Card: 2970 MHz) Game Clock Up to 2520 MHz (Reference Card: 2400 MHz) Stream Processors 4096 Memory Size 16 GB Memory Type GDDR6 Memory Clock 20 Gbps Memory Bus Width 256-bit PCI Express Interface PCI Express 5.0 Max Resolution 7680 × 4320 Maximum Displays Supported 4 Display Outputs 2 × DisplayPort 2.1a 2 × HDMI 2.1b Card Dimensions 288 × 132 × 56 mm (L × W × H) (2.7 slot) Recommended Power Supply 750 W Power Connectors 3 × 8-pin PCIe Get it at the link below: GIGABYTE Radeon™ RX 9070 XT Gaming OC ICE 16G Graphics Card (GV-R907XGAMINGOCICE-16GD): $649.99 (Sold and Shipped by Amazon US) (Was: $750) If your budget is lower, check this Nvidia RTX 5060 Ti 8GB deal out for only $330 wherein you get the latest James Bond game free. This Amazon deal is US-specific and not available in other regions unless specified. This is a first-party seller link (at the time of article publishing); ensure that you also purchase from a first-party seller link only. If you don't like it or want to look at more options, check out the previous deals that we have covered, OR you can also visit Amazon US deals page.

      Wow, this is some Iran, Cuba, China, Russia, North Korea-level citizen surveillance right there, the UK's government has gone totally mad. Power trip indeed, their politicians are totally out of control about this issue. They're starting to cross limits I wouldn't have imagined, to be honest. British people, fight this, your privacy and freedoms are in danger. Vote this government out of power.
