chang log of skinup2xp_metallic

[Marcinek]

Hi everobody I have got a big problem
When I choose my favorite skin skinup2xp_metallic my winamp 5,35 crashes. Is anyone here who could help me in change the log of this skin to work with this version of winamp. Here is the link to this skin:

skinup2xp_metallic (http://www.combatgold1.co.uk/forum/download.php?id=33&sid=172bcf4cb5d31b87748b93557e65f2c2)

I wrote the email to the author of this skin but he replied me that he has stopped creating and changing skins, so I ask you to help me with this skin. I'm intent on this skin very much.

with regards
Marcin

Change the skin to a .zip file first.

Unzip it to your hard drive, you should then have a folder with a number of other folders in it, equalizer, equalizer-winshade, menu, player etc etc.

Open the folder called XML

Find the file player-elements.xml

Open it in something like notepad.

find the line....
<truetypefont id="player.text" font="Arial"/>

It should be somewhere near the top of the file.

delete it.

Save the file again

Rezip all the fodlers back up into a new .zip file, change that back to .wal and you should be good to go.

If you can't manage that, let me know and I will mail you a fixed copy.

This skin should look like this

but after delete <truetypefont id="player.text" font="Arial"/> from player-elements.xml it looks like the basic skin from old winamp :(

Works fine for me, you must have missed something in my instructions, send me your email address via PM and I'll email you a fixed copy, I'm not posting a modified version of someone elses skin on here, but don't mind emailing you it.

Hit the PM button below this post and send me your details.
