Mutex Posted January 1, 2006 Share Posted January 1, 2006 are you sure that transparency doesn`t work? i mean "glass" is veeeery dark and doesn`t seem to be real transparent. i got the transparency (bottom player) with this settings: Right-Click the Winamp-Icon in the taskbar -> Options -> ClearONE -> Sytle -> First tick Glass, Second tick ClearBG. I hope you can get transparency now :) I still havent found the transparent seeker :( Thanks so much danielkoch, with your help I was able to get things working. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yochanan Posted January 1, 2006 Share Posted January 1, 2006 :woot: Very nice! It's more stable, Winamp uses half the CPU usage than with the beta (even with the Playlist open). I think I spent a good 20 minutes playing with it checking out all the colour combinations. Hooray for Glow Stick! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yochanan Posted January 2, 2006 Share Posted January 2, 2006 Hey axialix: I borrowed a couple images from clearONE (glass-bg-player-main.png & solid-clearONE.png) to make my new SIGamp image, hope that's cool. The SIGamp image has to link to sigamp.com of course, so I linked to your site with the googly eyes image. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
axialix Posted January 2, 2006 Author Share Posted January 2, 2006 (edited) WOW! Thanks everyone for all the good comments. :) Now for the bug reports: 1) Sky Juice - the Notifier Always On Top option defaults back to off when winamp restarts. 2) Whitman - cpu usage increases when the PL window is open (even with Vis off). 3) planetik - When it's at "Glow Stick", it doesn't change to another VIS when you click on it. This isn't a bug, it has to be this way by design since pressing the left mouse button grabs the Songname. Just right-click it to change Vis modes again. I'll get these corrected as soon as I can. BTW, thanks for the DOS tip aldago, I'll try it out now. Edited January 2, 2006 by axialix Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neoxphuse Posted January 2, 2006 Share Posted January 2, 2006 Another bug is the timer in the PL mode is always 0:00/length of song... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
axialix Posted January 2, 2006 Author Share Posted January 2, 2006 Is that the PL Shade mode or Normal mode? If you mean Normal mode, it sets itself at 0:00 until you click on a track. Notifier Always On Top option has been corrected and site has been updated. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andreas012345 Posted January 2, 2006 Share Posted January 2, 2006 Hey axialix, great skin!! but i got some trouble making trasparent. I chose GLASS but the one that appears is the one in the main picture with no trasparency. Can you tell me how I can make it transparent. in the STYLES it doesn't change much and therefore the directory is the default one. the beta was transparent just like the screenshots but i cant make this final version transparent. plz help any1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vibes1963 Posted January 2, 2006 Share Posted January 2, 2006 Try glass with clear bg works perfectly for me, this is by far the best winamp skin ever none come close to this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darksoft Posted January 2, 2006 Share Posted January 2, 2006 Hello, How do you make the font in the Play list editor into the BASIC5 font? (everything else seems to be into that font) thank you very much for your help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cheazles Posted January 2, 2006 Share Posted January 2, 2006 How do you make the font in the Play list editor into the BASIC5 font? (everything else seems to be into that font) Go to General Preferences->Playlist then in UseFont select Basic5 That should work Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Causing some modern skin users to find their freefrom skins not working rofl.gif ) clearONE turns off alpha blending when using the SolidBG and GlassBG styles. But obviously, using the ClearBG style mandates that alpha blending be turned on. I did this for all those Win98 and ME users out there so they could use my skin too. Those OS's do not support alpha blending. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
papajohn Posted January 2, 2006 Share Posted January 2, 2006 Is there any way to totally remove the Basic5 font; No matter what I do, it is still being used in the main winamp window. The font is great but it doesn't support the greek charset and the vast majority of my music is greek... :( Thumbs up for the skin, it is wonderful!

axialix Posted January 2, 2006 Author Share Posted January 2, 2006 Thanks ShippO~. :) papajohn, here are the instructions to change the font. It says NonstepNew in the screenshot, but just pretend it says Basic5. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chode Posted January 2, 2006 Share Posted January 2, 2006 I love it. After selecting the right colour theme, I have a mostly transparent winamp with blue glows. A visual treat for the eyes, so good that one almost requires a cigarrette after enjoying it! There is one suggestion/criticism that I have wondered since the days of the beta, however: Is it possible for Winamp to somehow render a "drop-shadow" or similar with fonts? It's just that no matter what colour is used it often clashes with windows/desktop beneath it. Plus if i make it white, then foreground windows make it unreadable. Make it black and it's unreadable on the desktop, etc. Anyway, fan-TAST-ic work! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nickels Posted January 2, 2006 Share Posted January 2, 2006 how ever much i try i cant get and transparency at all, its either white or grey :angry: soooo annoying Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
axialix Posted January 2, 2006 Author Share Posted January 2, 2006 Sorry danielkoch, only the Clear style will give you a transparent seeker. But if you really have to have it, open up glass-volume.png (found in clearONE/elements/player) with Photoshop and cut out the middle. It'll be transparent then. :) Chode, that's a good idea. I'll see what I can do about those shadows. nickels, the ClearBG style isn't working for you? Please provide more details so we can help you.
