Where are all the graphic artists gone?
There has been no new skin in ... ages...
I'm not criticizing, just wondering! And no I couldn't create a skin to save my life Roll Eyes

Don't worry we've got some nice shiny plans to get those skinners back to... uh... skinning. Grin

Will be more news posted about that when 3.3 gets let out of the bag.

For the very few (4-5) but very devout Miniskin users (you know who you are), I'm holding off v3 of my research into the unobtrusive, tiny and uncluttered interface (I don't want to use such hackneyed and stigmatized words like 'hardcore', 'streamlined' and 'minimalistic' because they're silly and meaningless) until I can make something close to what I envision — less of a new skin, more of a new UI. Looking forward to seeing some news on this front.

Decided on my skin to take a different flavor than before.

cerealkiller - that's certainly a preferable colour scheme from my point of view; goes much better with my steel & green desktop. I look forward to the finished version. Many thanks.

If anyone remembers there was this great skin called TOPAZAMP for WinAMP back in 1999. To this date it remained my favourite skin so i made a few adjustments for xmp, and it look something like this...



It's still not finished, but in a few (3-4) days...  Wink

I think only the info rows need adjusting. They seem a bit cramped ATM. How is the left alignment more realistic? And I, for one, know which player I'm using. No need to waste space on that.

Btw, where was the tutorial site? I remember it was quite informative when I first tried out skinning. Definately earns its place among my XMPlay bookmarks.

At the risk of sounding boring:

I have a 17" screen to use xmplay with any of the current skins you would need to use a needle or a toothpick. How about a "large" skin , or an "XP classic" type skin.  I'm not going to use it until then (I'd love to , but it's too difficult)

There are a few skins you might like. On the support site is SilverXP (based on the Silver XP theme), a large version of the 2.x skin, and some other large skins like Graphite and X-RD2506 (think that's spelt right).
