Love it.. but it needs a little work.. Do the following things, and this will be the best winamp skin in my book:

Add buttons to access the playlist, visualization, etc

Multiple colors within one skin (not two separate skins)

The captions are messed up, (so I edited them myself in the file) .. for example: "minimize Winamp" .. capitalize the M in Minimize .. that "Ejectah/Injectah" thing.. just change that to "Open File"

When a song is not being played, you can still see a : for the time. You should remove it when a song isn't being played :/

Make the opacity/scaling button a little thinner (how many people actually use that? I'd be fine if you just removed it :p)

The playlist editor should be redone to match the excellent A+ style of the main window

Theres a bug: whenever you right click winamp, look at the visualization menu.. new items get added everytime you look at the menu

Other than that... I love this style and look forward to you implementing most of this :yes:

@acoustikrage

this is my last comment to this. "The windows dont support transparency!"

and in fact-i love the style of the windows more then the player itself. :yes:

oops, my bad. i don't do any skinning myself so i wouldn't know. the windows look fine but they're a little bit glitchy for me for some reason. regardless, this is the best looking winamp skin i have ever seen, great job!

this winamp skin is very nice, just changed again from foobar to winamp! but I have one problem, everytime I start winamp the main window of the classic skin appears, so I have to main windows but as soon as I mouseover the spirit main window, the old one disappears..I use version 5.05, here's a screenshot:

Is there any work being done by the OP to release future revisions of this skin? I like it, but many things need work.

-media library/playlist/equalizer. these need skinning desperately. Even if you cannot accomplish the same transparency, you could do them in the same style for the respective colors.

-buttons to access other windows such as listed above

-drop the opacity slider. if people need to adjust that, it is easily done without having that clutter up the skin.

-the font choice needs improvement as the song title and the time look out of place

-graphic/button to change the option of shuffling the playlist

That is all I can think of for now, but I would definitely like to see these worked on in future revisions.

Im using 5.05 too, and i dont got that problem, tried reinstalling?

also the video player window.....good job on the main skin but the component skins are f-ugly.

    • Most AI-powered mainframe migration vendors expected to fail by 2030, Gartner warns by Paul Hill Credit: Pexels You may have read that many companies still run code written in ancient programming languages like COBOL and pay a handsome sum for those who can maintain that code. Well, it looks like this area of the tech world could be the scene of an AI bubble. It turns out that there are mainframe exit vendors, helping companies move their legacy mainframe systems to modern cloud environments or servers such as Microsoft Azure and AWS, using generative AI tooling. Unfortunately, 75% of these vendors are now expected to pivot or cease operations as market realities take hold by 2030. Alessandro Galimberti from Gartner said: Some of the companies in the mainframe exit market are IBM, 21CS, BMC, Broadcom, Rocket Software, DXC, GTSG, and Kyndryl. The reasons some of these firms are expected to quit the market are a reset of market expectations and a decline in demand for one-size-fits-all migration solutions. The reset in expectations is likely to be driven by cost overruns and threats to business, and the potential occurrence of critical failures within businesses as a result of bad transition implementations. These insights from Gartner are pretty interesting because it’s a specific area of the market where doubt is being cast on generative AI. Many people have cast doubt on whether AI companies will successfully justify the massive amounts spent on GenAI to date, and this data from Gartner suggests the road could be rocky for GenAI.
