Ok, I just couldn't stand that green text in winamp anymore so here you go...
Maybe someone likes it.

You use the base skin????!

Looks more like purple-blue... But it looks nice... smile.gif

It'll probably take a while to get used to though... rolleyes.gif

I use the base skin too...

This blue one looks better, but it makes the play list harder to read.

Yes, I'm not one of those skin-suffling-winamp-overloading-I-need-change-though-it-looks-horrible-so-I-rip-winamp-skinsection type of guys.
SK1
Neither am i, but it truly is simply so horrible smile.gif.
I've been using the METAMPmorphosis 2.1 skin for almost a week, just as comfortable as the original and more pleasent smile.gif.

I use the base skins, everythign else seems too artsey. I have gotten used to the green though.

Tried to find it at winamp.com's skin section.
"We're sorry, your search did not return any results. Please try your search again..."
Is it a WA3 skin?
SK1
WA3, hell no smile.gif... You know what, i'll work on it, tomorrow or the day after the Winamp 2 skins section of my future site will be completed and i will provide a link. There will be around 40 high quality skins.

I love it. It's readable even at high resolutions, and it's not built to look like an exact replica of a Kenwood stereo or Darth Maul.

Woahh...
The Minimal Amp Skin is great...
I got a new default skin! Finally a skin, which is usable and doesn't look too bad!

I also use the base skin soley because WA2 will load up to 50% faster on my system by doing so, and of course since the buttons are easily readable without having to figure out someone's PhotoShop delights that got out of hand.

Copy and paste to address bar:
audio.web1000.com/skins wa2.htm

Here is my skin collection.
I shrunk it down to 21 skins, left only the very best.

Enjoy.

I went for the ultra simple style with this page smile.gif.

SK1

The equalizer is kind of hard to use because there are no values listed but then again I don't use the eq so it doesn’t bother me. Although it is not shown in the above picture the playlist font is a nice blue color similar to Jan's skin.

This should work. (replace the space with %20).

My thoughts exactly, and his original reason for making it smile.gif

Clean, good looking and usable. A must have for Fab Four fans ;-)
Wish MuchFx2 could be skinnable (at least easier than recompiling the plugin...).

If you want a nice, easy-read and good-looking skin for Winamp 2.x, I recommend Nucleo NLog v102 (yeah, it's not a new one):

You'll find it at Winamp Skins website (direct link)

I've added yaXamp by Razor to my skin collection. Great design. It's the last on the page (alphabetic order).

Blue Dawn is not too bad.

I use Windows2000, the only one I could stand for more than one year.

I use this one too.. Easy to read, and not too cluttered.

I'm not too much for skins.
I've yet to find one that makes Winamp sound better.
But I do like the blue in the base skin.
I've got 3 skins saved.
One of which is this, called Turntablism, which is my favorite:

It's an old skin, that used to be on DeviantArt.
The only place you can get it now is from the guy that created it.

I use this skin from a commodore64's website (lemon64).
http://digilander.libero.it/oge/Img/lemon64.wsz
It's clear and nice.
biggrin.gif
SK1
Hey that skin really is very nice. It shall be added to my ultimate collection biggrin.gif...
I've downloaded, ahm, many hundreds of roms from lemon64 but never noticed the skin smile.gif..
Oge_user
this skin has stayed available for a brief period..
I have downloaded it in the 2001.

SK1
Heh, interesting, thanks for catching it! smile.gif

For a moment there, I thought this would top SK1's whole list, but then I saw that it's for wa3 sad.gif

A dumb question: how do I use the blue base skin?
It's not in .wsz form...
yourtallness
Can someone answer me, please?
Jan S.
Unzip it and put the files in a dir in the skin dir in your winamp folder...

OR... rename it to .wsz and run it.

.wsz and zip is the same.

Thanks...
