Skin Completed

Begun working on this skin this morning and doing pretty good.

Got inspired by the Longhorn MSN Skin and decided to make a winamp skin to at least nearly match it.

And this is my result so far. This is basicly how it?s gonna look. Depends on which updates i will be doing. All suggestions are welcome.

Make the top a bit more attractive by shrinking it down to a fraction of that size. Its way too big to be proportioned to the current size of the skin. As for the stop, play, pause, etc buttons, use the same style you have for the 'minimize/close' buttons. have the play be the same size of the " X " and the stop, pause, song back, song foward buttons be the same size of the " - " button.

sb - stop - play - pause - sf

Appreciate all your comments. As you all have requested it will be smaller, just made it that big to start with so i don?t have to remove things all the time to test if one thing fits better on another spot or anything like that.

Making a good progress right now. Sliders all buttons and such are now there, not right bitmaps but they work and i am going to getting everything into the skin and then skin the parts.

Still no suggestion for a caption text?

Alrigth thanks for your comments everyone.

The Main Window is about 95% done. volume bar,shuffle and repeat buttons left to make look better.

But now the skin is fully functional (except the equalizer) so I thought that now that it actually work i can release to you guys so you can test it.

And then i?ll release another when i?m done. The things that are left are to skin the playlist, make an equalizer, skin the video window and skin the Media Library if I have the time.

I?ve got 2 webspaces to host this file on but none of them seem to work. So if anybody can host this file please tell me. For the moment i can send it to you all via email and MSN Messenger.

Email: [email protected] (MSN the same)

    • Yeah, this is absolutely nothing new and EA have done it before. Burnout Paradise, released in 2008, had dynamic advertising billboards that were updated via the internet and targeted people based on location and what EA knew about them from their profile. It was particularly notable for the fact that the Obama presidential campaign ran ads in the game, in an attempt to reach a younger audience who didn't watch broadcast TV any more. It was by no means the first though. Battlefield 2142 from 2006 had the same thing. In fact, Neowin wrote a story about it back then. https://www.neowin.net/news/ba...-in-game-ads-clarification/
    • This is obviously aimed at the education where Apple has lost so much ground to Chromebooks in the last few years, but unless they come up with a comparable management system for education why would anyone switch back?
    • Here's how we arrived at that claim: Note that this is just Play Store downloads. The app is also available on the Galaxy App Store
    • Google Play states the app had more than 50 million downloads. What other metric do you suggest should be used?
    • MSN defined our generation in some ways, kind of like Snapchat and TikTok have done for future generations. I have great memories of the MSN era in the late 90s / early 2000s. In the UK everyone seemed to come home from School and go on MSN for the evening. We didn't really have mobile phones then, so other than going and knocking on your friends door it was a totally new way of interacting with people. I also loved how I could talk to people I’d met playing online games from around the world. Inviting people to NetMeeting and messing about with the shared white board and webcams was pretty fun, even if webcams only ran at a couple of fps over dial-up. All the random things you could do with MsgPlus! were really fun - I suspect that made a few people jump with /shello randomly blasting Mr Hankey out their speakers! Maybe I’m just nostalgic, however I do feel the internet and computers were more fun back then.
