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)

    • "just $100 per TB"? Just? Are we trying to make this seem like the new normal? Kinda weird to make it sound like that is not a ridiculously expensive asking price.
    • The reviews you refer to mean nothing. Where there is no journalism there is no reason to call the gaming media's opinion pieces "reviews". For GP games there is indeed a metric for success - increasing subscriptions. Which turns in revenue. The only circumstance in which subs do not rise when great is being released is a Game Pass system where the company is close to fully saturated with customers in a subscription. However, in that case as the theory goes you spend aplenty in all kind of games - from shady live service cash cows and customer offending agitprop crap in purple colours to robust and entertaining single player games. And keep a solid level of profitability. Ignoring the simply innocuous but mid games MGS has released primarily of the second kind.
    • Report: Microsoft to use AWS to help GitHub deal with a major surge in demand by Pradeep Viswanathan Thanks to the surge of coding AI agents, GitHub's usage has skyrocketed over the past 12 months. To meet this demand, GitHub started with a plan in October 2025 to increase capacity by 10x. However, by early this year, the company realized that it needed 30x scale. This rapid growth has caused severe strain on the platform's reliability, resulting in several small outages over the past few months. In April, GitHub published a long blog post explaining the steps it is taking to resolve these reliability issues. In the post, the company also confirmed that it is working toward a multi-cloud architecture for better resilience. Today, Business Insider reported that GitHub is turning to Amazon Web Services to help deal with a major surge in AI-driven coding activity. It is important to note that GitHub is still in the process of moving completely to the Azure cloud. The current plan is to move the platform fully to Azure by 2027 so that it can scale better as per developer demand. Therefore, the current decision to utilize AWS might be part of a short-term plan to meet immediate demand. A Microsoft spokesperson confirmed that GitHub is using multiple cloud providers with the following statement: For Microsoft, the decision highlights the operational pressure behind the AI boom. GitHub has to stay reliable for developers at a time when rivals such as Codex, Cursor, Claude Code, and other AI coding tools are gaining attention. And the decision to use AWS for computing capacity seems practical given the circumstances.

    • Qwen 3.6 is better value per dollar, and you can run it locally for free.
