The font in the playlist is because of TrueType (it causes the haziness). I pesonally love the font, and wouldn't want a thing done to it. The title bar font would look kinda weird taking over the whole skin.

Correct - I could use the titlebar pixel font in the playlist, except Winamp doesn't display large numbers of fonts correctly (pixel fonts included). That was about the best one I could come up with. It's been hazified a little due to the PNG colour reduction too ;)

Ok. I'm finishing up the WMP 9.0 tray control skin...

Here's a sneek peek:

Still have a little issue w/ the pause button, but I'll finish it up sometime tomorrow...right now, though, I need some damn sleep.

Also, I'm gonna need permissions from Gigatexel and Ryu7x, as I am using one of Giga's alternate start buttons and Ryu7x's buttons from his WMP 9.0 skin.

So, if you guys happen to come across, lemme know if I can release this when I'm done w/ it.

:D :whistle:

PS - If someone knows how to skin the taskbar controls for a THIN taskbar, let me know...because currently, when you minimize WMP, the taskbar grows to a full height of 25 pixels, as you can see in the pic above.

Argh...I even tried replacing all occurences of '25' in the .dll with '20'...even that didn't work.

Something somewhere must be telling the taskbar controls to be 25 pixels high. It should just be a matter of changing that file so that it tells the controls to only be 20 pixels high

Okay guys. IMHO we need a homepage where everything 'bout classix is on.

Like the complete newest theme, trillian-skins, wmp, winamp and so on.

ONE official skin for every app is enough.

Mods (like start-button) done by another person than the author isn't nice.

Do it! ;)

Classix Mailing List. It's not up-to-date per se, as most skin authors have chosen to ignore it, but it is there.

Several of us have talked with gigatexel concerning an actual website or such for Classix, he's yet to agree to any of us doing so (for his own reasons, which only he is qualified to explain).

The mod issue has been discussed several times over. If you'd look back you would notice that a few of us have discussed "modpacks" that anyone could release. Thus keeping the primary themes how the authors want them, while letting users customize them to their liking.

Looks great thetruth, permission granted. ;)

Just an FYI, there's a wb4 port of Classix in the works. Oh and I'm not against a Mac port, just waiting for someone to step up. :)

This is for all skin authors and people making wallpapers based on Classix. Please ask for permission before you start any work and do it by pm or email, not in this thread as it will likely be missed. This includes art's winamp skin, if you use any part of it to make a skin for another program you must ask him first. Art did the graphics by hand, notably the playlist buttons. This isn't aimed at anyone in particular, I just wanted to make that clear to avoid any possible confusion or arguments in the future. Thanks and good job to those who have contributed to Classix. :)

    • Anyway to download these versions without being on the Experimental builds?
    • Nothing is stopping you from continuing with your testing cadence. If updates are released every 2 weeks instead of 4, and you test once every 4 weeks, the exact same amount of patches will still be available for you in those 4 weeks. For example: Before 4th week - patch 1, 2, 3, 4 After 2nd week - patch 1 and 2 4th week - patch 3 and 4 Still the same amount after 4.
    • Everyone else has said it. I'm gonna say it - you don't know what you're talking about. I do. I have two laptops. One work, one personal. I have access to two more laptops - both personal. At home I manually update my personal laptop when I see on Neowin that there is an update - I carry on and only apply the updates when I am ready. My work one only updates when my workplace decides to send it - I carry on and only apply the updates (when they actually arrive, which is usually days after the release) when I switch off the laptop at the end of the day as usual. The two other personal laptops only get updated when I get to it which is rarely - the people who own them carry on using them until I get to it and update them. All of the browsers on all laptops are configured to restore the tabs when launched. Google and Microsoft have changed from 6 weeks to 4, and it looks like it's going to move to 2. None of these changes affect how any of these browsers on the laptops are used. Not one jot. My advice to you is stop panicking whenever you see an update. Just carry on with what you're doing. This even benefits you in a way - from your comment you sound like you don't like the changes or the frivolous new features - great - then carry on as before!
