Since nobody sounds very keen on doing any more Winamp 2 skins with the pending release of Winamp 3......I think it might be kinda fun to have all of us collaborate on final Winamp 2 skin. We could decide on a "theme" and "colors" and everybody skin a different .bmp file, then we could put it all together and submit it. Whaddya think? http://forums.winamp.com/ubb/biggrin.gif http://forums.winamp.com/ubb/biggrin.gif

Ideas for a "theme"?

we could all put in something from our best skins that we made!! we could have the volume bar from snipeamp se and we could have the cbuttons from DADAamp etc oooohhh it will be soooooo great!!! and we could use that smiley face mikroamp cos i think everyone will agree that it is one of the best mikroamp skins in the world. The possibilities are endless!!!!!

I'm with Zeruel, im still skinning 2.xx, after all 25 million users aint converting to 3.xx overnight. Still the idea of a collaboration skin is interesting.

How about making it our final tribute to winamp 2? That would be a great theme! It'd be red and we could use this lightning-winamplogo-thingy-or-whatever-it's-called in it!

OK, we spend much more time in committee, WA3 will be out before the last commerative skin.

My vote is for Christmas theme. With our international memebership providing the aspects of what's unique about Christmas in their country.

But, time to roll on it. Jayn: it's your idea, you must head it up and make the final decision. http://forums.winamp.com/ubb/smile.gif

Jay! A Christmas skin would rock (As long as the skin doesn't incorporate a pic of christ himself, nor Santa that is...)

Ugh... Christmas/holiday/whatever skins usually don't do it for me... But if that's what you want, go for it.

OK, I'll run with Ampburner: no personalities on the skin. (Except my definition of a uniquely U.S. Christmas was our version of Santa... next idea, please http://forums.winamp.com/ubb/wink.gif)

ReDVision; What would make a holiday skin acceptable to you? Atleast for the holidays.

I think we should each donate a piece, making it like a FrankenAmp project.

I'll go with Christmas - just tell me what part you want, and where we send finished stuff to.

And we need to all agree on the same background- that way it doesnt look to disjointed - for simplicity's sake - what about flat bright 255 red - no texture whatsoever?

http://forums.winamp.com/ubb/biggrin.gif Would that include a spiky beard too? http://forums.winamp.com/ubb/biggrin.gif That could be kinda cute!

M'Kay...sounds like you guys have made some nice decisions. I agree with what Xerxes said about a flat 255 red background - no texture. It will make things alot easier. After we get it assembled, and all have a copy of it, we could always do a few finishing touches if needed.

Let's start passing out the .bmp's! Shout out which one(s) you want to do here on the list so we don't get duplicates.

It sounds pretty much agreed....no santas or religious images.....some other ideas that pop into my little head are....
candy canes (nummy http://forums.winamp.com/ubb/smile.gif)

i have the perfect idea for the volume...although it could make or break the skin...
have like a fake animation of one of the following...

like an increasing snowball tha turns into a snowman

or santa's sleigh being pulled by reindeer

but my ideas are lame so continue w/ the discussion all you skin gods

here...d/load my volume thingy here

i just put it on my first skin b/c it was easiest to put in and find...its just an idea...its not that practical though b/c you cant see the volume bar...just the animation

HEY let me do the numbers.bmp ... and can i also do the portion of the main window with the tiny visualizer and the numbers - that way i can make the numbers "fit" onto the background (Like they should, right?)

So we are all sending this to Jayn - and I imagine she's assembling this then ... and finishing it up in little parts so it all goes together.... http://forums.winamp.com/ubb/smile.gif

Its alright - to tell me

i can give you some ideas and examples of Christmas skins:
skins.org: go search up "xmasgems" or "digital_millenium"
but i think the xmasgems one is better as a holiday skin. http://forums.winamp.com/ubb/smile.gif
~just a thought~

xmasgems is the actual link.
No such skin found for digital_millenium.
