Sorry for all the confusion on my last screenshot...

I got the visual style from another member here on the forums, I didn't know who the original author was. It is indeed a Windows XP VS; I used SkinStudio to convert it and WindowBlinds to apply it on Vista. I then used WindowBlinds' built-in color adjustment to turn it brown.

:)

^ Right there mate.

SakuraKira wasn't responding to anybody asking about that screenshot. He was responding to questions about the screenshot that DigitalE posted. The colors in DigitalE's screenshot are different than yours, and with so many themes looking similar these days, it wouldn't make sense to assume that yours and DigitalE's are the same thing.

Doesn't really matter one way or the other, but the theme in DigitalE's screenshot was not explicitly identified before SakuraKira's reply, as he said.

With that out of the way, here's my new screenshot:

VS: Knurra

Wall: Rhian Sugden

^ Reason I use winamp

You can do that in foobar2000 by default. Personally I tend to listen to albums rather than single tracks to expand my musical horizon a bit. Plus - I don't actually have any singles on my PC, I have full FLAC albums that could be given full replaygain tags if I wanted :)

Fact is, Winamp isn't that customizable - sure there are skins but they all follow the same boundaries. Foobar2000 lets you make anything you want plus has alot more to it, like the file converter.

I've always used winamp as my main audio player, and just yesterday I tried foobar. Is nice, but it doesn't fully support *.m4a playback support like winamp. I'm giving songbird a chance now.....

    • I have updated my Series 9 Watch so I assume there is either a mistake in what was said, or as suggested - the new AI feature set isn’t supported on anything other than those listed above.
    • WhatsApp slams Isreali firm, NSO Group, for trying to spy on its users by David Uzondu WhatsApp has come out accusing Israeli cyber-intelligence firm, NSO Group, of deploying a fresh wave of highly targeted "spear phishing" attacks against users, which its security teams successfully thwarted. The Israeli firm, according to WhatsApp, ran this operation like its usual one-click phishing campaigns, trying to get people to click malicious links that lead them to external sites. To coordinate the campaign, the spyware vendor created fake test accounts and groups on the messaging app. WhatsApp said it is sharing the specific malicious domains, ikhwancast[.]com, ghazacast[.]com, and fr24cast[.]com, because potential victims need this data to check if they were targeted across other messaging systems or email platforms. The NSO Group is infamous for creating and selling Pegasus, a military-grade commercial spyware capable of silently compromising smartphones simply by sending a message or placing a missed call via apps like WhatsApp or iMessage. Users do not even have to interact with the incoming notification before the infection takes hold. Once Pegasus manages to break in, the spyware harvests private data, letting operators read private messages, emails, photos, and documents. It also tracks precise GPS locations, records keystrokes, activates the device's camera, and monitors live microphone audio. Independent investigations by cybersecurity watchdogs like The Citizen Lab and human rights organizations like Amnesty International have proven that governments use this software to track humanitarian workers, journalists, diplomats, and political dissidents. These findings directly contradict NSO Group claims that clients use the technology to spy on criminals and terrorists only. In late 2021, the U.S. Department of Commerce added the firm to its Entity List, effectively banning the vendor from buying hardware and software from American tech companies. WhatsApp said in its blog post that the spyware vendor violated a permanent court injunction with this new spear-phishing campaign. This injunction, which took effect in 2025, strictly prohibited NSO Group from targeting WhatsApp and its users. The platform is now asking a federal court to hold the firm in contempt.
    • It would be surprising if even 3 year old Apple Watches (and not SE models at that) cannot run watchOS 27. Granted, it doesn't mean it would work as well. We'll see.
