You can get it here (right click save as) (http://wam.umd.edu/~bryceb/tga.wal)

I have it in a wal file that works just put it in the skin directory.

This is the skin I have been working on for awhile under the new skin/vertical volume bar thread. I am sorry if any of you feel this is a clutter but I am posting this thread so people don't dl the first file they see in the other thread as that is very old. This is the first fully operational (if containing a few bugs) version of the skin. The admins may delete the other thread if they want to.

Let me know if you use my skin, just interested to know...

Call it: TGA - Tiny Gray Amp for Beta 1
Ok here is the discription:
Tiny Gray Amp is design to be as small as possible while still showing most winamp 3 functions.

Thanks, sawg.

Aww ok :) I wish I could enter :)

[mark e]

Wow, really cool... :)

[drwho9437]

I only wish I coud make the text in the PL etc smaller...

I'm not sure and more than likely wrong, but couldn't you make a
built in script that automatically scales it 75%?

[drwho9437]

excellent... hopefully verrical vol will work as well

[thebra]

When using the wheel on my mouse if you scroll up, the volume image moves down, and vice-versa when you scroll down, its just backwards.

[drwho9437]

I'm just useing the standard volbar vertical. Therefore the problem you discribe is a problem with wimamp3. I could write a script to fix it but at the momement I'm too busy. I hope all the volbar stuff will be fixed in beta 2.

[Brennan]

It will.

What about a winshade mode? ;)

[drwho9437]

A better question would be what about a normal mode. I guess I could make it even smaller. I will have to give that some thought.

[bluekeydesign]

There will be playlist winshade mode in beta 2.

[drwho9437]

Ok is she asleep, backstage or what?

[drwho9437]

nm... The volume bar seems to work good... the playlist is smaller everything looks good except the pl doesn't remember where I put it.

[bluekeydesign]

Go to config
click "find open recet" to off.
restart winamp and it should be good.
Jon

[drwho9437]

thanks... My only question is why was this feature implemented by default?

[bluekeydesign]

sorry, dont know that answer to that one.

Skins looking good.
i think im gonna use it instead of lounge from now on.
Jon

[drwho9437]

thanks man... I hope the community put my skin to good use.

I use it at the top of my screen always on top far enough to the left that it doesn't mess with the min, max close buttons and far enough to the right so that it doesn't mess with the file, edit... menus. It works at most resolutions. I wish I could have made it a few pixles shorter vertically so that it wouldn't even go one pixle into any program's toolbars but it doesn't obstuct most.

Anyway thanks and let me know if you find any bugs in it.

[bluekeydesign]

on my sharpE shell i have it at the bottom cause my shell components create an unobstructed space at the bototm where i got room for it.

it is a few pixels high vertically but it works.
Jon

[drwho9437]

Everything seems to be working nice in Beta 2. I might update the graphics some at the end of the year after my finals. Until then just let me know if you like it and if there are any bug in it.

[Aspiration]

Wonderful...it's good to see functionality factored into design.

[omarello]

man i really like the skin.. it is the only one i use right now, besides the default skin!!! gr8 work

[jrimes]

1.i agree with what someone mentioned earlier, a larger mode as opposed to a smaller winshade mode would be useful for those of us who dont have fantastic eye sight!
2.any plans to add the crossfade button?

jonny

[drwho9437]

It has a crossfade button. on the right hand side of the lcd vertically it goes cross, repeat, shuffle. Your eye sight really isn't that good... ;)
