Nullsoft Media Player 9? What the hell?

Do you mean 5.03? Make sure you download the Full (not Lite) version and install Modern Skin support.

ahhhh...

ok, now i get it...

@marquita188:
did installing the full version of winamp work out?
or is there some problem with that skin only?
it's a third-party skin, so it's not supported on these forums
maybe try contacting the author of the skin

thank you i'll try that, but i did download the full pro verison

If that doesn't solve the issue try deleting the internet cache...
MS Internet Explorer > Tools > Internet Options... > General tab > click the 'Delete Files' button under "Temporary Internet Files"
-or-
Control Panel > Internet Options icon > General tab > click the 'Delete Files' button under "Temporary Internet Files"

No luck, have you tried the alternative download method?...
1. Right-click on the download link
2. select 'Save target as'
3. download/save the skin to the WA5 skins folder (usually C:\Program Files\Winamp\Skins)
Example: C:\Program Files\Winamp\Skins\SkinName.wal (or SkinName.wsz if downloading a classic skin)
Next time you are using Winamp 5, select the skin there.

thanks! jonnymac what u said worked!!

JonnyMac 25th June 2004 23:07

Which suggestion worked? (If you don't mind me asking :p)

marquita188 26th June 2004 00:26

the second suggestion worked

JonnyMac 26th June 2004 01:20

Well, if your just as happy as can be with the alternate download method then we can let it go. If you would like to download skins directly please post a reply with system specs including what you use for a default browser.

If you are using a third party download manager/accelerator try disabling before downloading skins. Right now my suspicion is centering on a download manager.
