****, that sucks. I've enabled/disabled all the options in Notifier section testing it and all was well. Which option do you have it set to Slide on? Vertical or Horizontal? I'll try out all the Slide options again, but in the mean time can you try a clean install of the skin? Run the Uninstaller.exe in the Winamp\Skins\clearONE folder and run the clearONEsetup.exe again.

Hi my friend axialix,

Long time no speak... I quess your skin is allmost perfect :) haha

Maybe it's an idea to add the gen_ml.dll to the installer file and than making it an option? (just as the Basic5 font...)

It might be important to let the installer check the Winamp version first. So if I have 5.12 installed, the installer tells me that the option to install gen_ml.dll is disabled because I'm not running 5.13.

just an idea,

Barisko

axialix: great work on ClearOne. I absulotely love it. I'd like to make a suggestoin, or request. Maybe a similar skin with the same buttons etc, but in the shape of the standard Winamp skin instead of the current, narrow and long version.

Just making a suggestion. Im loving this skin though :) great work

I have a lot on my plate right now highrisk, but I'll try to get it included.

bayrider, I'm a stick-mode freak. I started to make a go at a main mode but didn't like it after several attempts. I hear you though, it does need another mode of some sort.

I actually had it set to fade in/out in the bottom right.

I've reinstalled as you suggested and I'll see how it goes.

axialix:

I have a few requests for you theme.

1:) The notifier, I want it to stay on screen all the time. However I dont want it to be always on top, rather pinned to the desktop. With forever on it shows on top of my firefox window.

2:) Ability to rate songs with the notifier

Also I seem to have problems with the 5.2 version. I have winamp in my startup folder, but on boot the skin only shows the outline and not the rest of the playlist. Also on albums that dont have covers it causes the coverart to show up with a black border and nothing in between. I ahve to change to a song with a cover to get rid o it.

Just a word of warning that the uninstaller for the skin will delete EVERYTHING in the folder that it is in, regardless of whether it is a skin component, or program files, or documents.

I accidentally installed it into my winamp program folder, and when I uninstalled, everything went with it.

Sorry I've been busy the last couple days, so haven't had time to check in here.

GamerGod, are you sure you don't have the Always on Top option selected in the Notifier part of the CF window? I know you're no noob with this skin, but just had to ask. I don't know what else would cause it to stay on top other than that option being selected. Just checked the script again and all seemed a-ok. Running now with Firefox open and it's staying put behind.

Rating songs from the notifier? How about some cbuttons on there too so only it has to be visible and not the main window? I like this idea.

Relativity, you are correct, the uninstaller deletes the clearONE directory and removes the skin files, but not the Basic5 font. Sorry about you losing your winamp folder, but if the uninstaller doesn't remove the directory, what should it remove to get rid of the skin?

I guess an apology is in order Bhav. I never quite finished that WB skin I was working on. Honestly, that program has come miles since I first installed it a year or so ago, but it still leaves much to be desired IMO. Had to get rid of it, but did make a decent stab at the skin, though it's very unfinished. If you want, send me your email and I'll send it to you (to ashamed to post it here actually. :blush:)

Yep, having desktop alpha on (ClearBG style) and using the Vis in the Playlist is gonna chomp up some major cpu. Sucks, but there's just no getting around it. The larger you make the window, the more Winamp has to work to redraw the big window on every Vis refresh. I just try to set the PL at a minimal size if I'm gonna turn on its Vis.

That's a really cool avatar btw, really caught my eye.

Oh, you did say a small window, well I was paying too much attention to your avatar and didn't see that part. You could just use a different styleBG, the solid and glass one's don't use anywhere near the cpu of the clear one.

Did I mention I liked your avatar?

Yes control buttons on the notifier would be a good idea! What about the running time as well? One thing could you please give an option to turn off right click and close? I keep accidently closing my windows by mistake :wacko:

Oh also teh notifier I need it to remember its position, currently i can only place to the left or right.

I hope no one is holding their breath for more updates to this skin because it may be awhile before I get around to adding any. In all honesty, I'd like to concentrate on other projects for a little while. This skin took me almost a year from start to finish so you can imagine how tired I must be of looking at it. Needless to say, I'm more than ready to move on to something else. However, eventually I will get around to adding some updates for clearONE, but in the meantime I guess you'll have to live with it as it is. ;)

I thank everyone for their input here and your requests will not be forgotten when the time comes for an update.

    • Quantum Error Correction Validated in Nature: Microsoft and Quantinuum Log 800-Fold Improvement Two years after the original press-release announcement, independently peer-reviewed results published in Nature on June 10, 2026, have confirmed that Microsoft and Quantinuum achieved an 800-fold reduction in quantum error rates on real trapped-ion hardware — the largest gap between physical and logical error rates ever independently validated.    What Quantum Error Correction Actually Does — and Why Breaking Even Is Hard https://www.techtimes.com/articles/318329/20260613/quantum-error-correction-validated-nature-microsoft-quantinuum-log-800-fold-improvement.htm   Quantum Computing Wiring Bottleneck Cracked by HKU Silicon Carbide Chip at Qubit Temperature Engineers at the University of Hong Kong have built the first cryogenic control chip that operates at the same temperature as superconducting qubits — 10 millikelvin, or just one-hundredth of a degree above absolute zero — without generating the heat that has forced every competing approach to park its electronics hundreds of meters of cable away. https://www.techtimes.com/articles/318325/20260613/quantum-computing-wiring-bottleneck-cracked-hku-silicon-carbide-chip-qubit-temperature.htm  
    • RevPDF 4.5.0 by Razvan Serea RevPDF is a free, fully offline PDF editor for Windows, macOS, and Linux that lets you edit text and images directly inside PDF files — no internet connection, no account, and no cloud uploads required. Unlike bloated alternatives that demand subscriptions and constant connectivity, RevPDF fits in under 60MB on desktop while delivering a complete editing toolkit: annotate, redact, sign, compress, split, merge, convert, and reorganize pages, all processed locally on your device. Smart font matching ensures edited text blends seamlessly with the original, and multi-language support includes RTL scripts such as Arabic and Hebrew. Where most PDF editors force you to choose between features and simplicity, RevPDF manages both. You can build interactive forms from scratch with text fields, checkboxes, and dropdowns, permanently redact sensitive data before sharing, draw freehand on contracts and diagrams, and add custom watermarks — all without a single file leaving your machine. Edit Text and Images Directly Inside PDFs RevPDF supports true inline PDF editing — not just annotation layers on top of a document, but actual modification of existing text and images within the file. A smart font-matching engine identifies the font used in the original document and applies it automatically when you make edits, so changes blend naturally with the surrounding content. You can reposition elements, resize images, and update text across single pages or entire documents. RevPDF 4.5.0 release notes: This is one of the biggest updates to RevPDF yet. A lot of things people have been asking for are finally here. New Features Auto Redaction Permanently redact sensitive text and areas from your PDFs before sharing. Clean, irreversible, and fully offline. Comments, Links & Bookmarks Add comments for review, insert clickable links, and create bookmarks to jump around long documents without scrolling forever. Find & Replace Search across the whole document and replace text in one go. Long overdue. Split Pages Vertically or Horizontally Split any page down the middle, vertically or horizontally. Perfect for scanned books or double-page spreads. New Drawing Tools More tools for freehand drawing and markup, better for annotations, sketches, and detailed notes. Continuous Scrolling in Editor The editor now scrolls continuously through pages instead of jumping between them. Working through long documents is a lot smoother now. PDF Metadata Editor View and edit the metadata stored inside your PDFs, including title, author, subject, and keywords. Better Font Matching Text edits now blend in more naturally by doing a better job of matching the original font. Tabbed PDF Viewer Open multiple PDFs at once in tabs and switch between them without going back to the home screen. Add Links Insert hyperlinks anywhere in your PDF, to external URLs or to other pages within the document. Share & Print Shortcuts Share or print directly from the editing screen, home screen, and viewer. No extra steps. Minor Updates Paste images directly from clipboard into your PDF New image editing tools for more control over images inside documents Bug Fixes Fixed file saving issues on Windows and Linux Everything still works fully offline.
