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.....

    • Apple's AI smart glasses and Vision headset plans reportedly delayed, again

      By AnalystDan · Posted

      Apple are scared of their customers! They have built a brand over the years of "it just works out of the box", but that slows innovation. Samsung's master stroke was the Galaxy Ultra: "Let's cram everything into one handset, make it so stupid only real nerds will love it, some of the features will work, some won't, but the audience will have such a high tolerance they won't care". Apple has no such device and so they are constantly worrying these days about the fallout of creating a new experience that customers might not like. I know it is often cited the reason they don't build a touchscreen Mac Book is they don't want to cannibalise the the iPad market, but I think it's equally cold feet after the criticism Microsoft receive trying to make a touch compatible desktop OS

    • Dell, HP PCs ran into endless reboot, BitLocker recovery loops but Windows 11 isn't to blame

      By grunger106 · Posted

      So, an article that has nothing to do with Windows 11, still gets Windows 11 in the title and a build number as the picture? Dell have a buggy build of Support Assist HP have UEFI settings that need unlocking for the secureboot cert upgrade to take place.
    • I Can't Wrap My Head Around This Number - Google to buy computing from SpaceX at $920 million per month

      By Nick H. · Posted

      What I can't seem to understand is that Google are paying SpaceX? Surely it would be the other way round, with SpaceX needing Google's datacenters etc.? Oh well, this level of money and power is way outside of my comprehension at the best of times.
