Help! Where are skins stored?

2nd May 2000, 22:45

I just downloaded winamp and I have a question about the skins. As I download new skins, I see that the last skin is replaced, but the "skins" file stays empty. Does downloading a new skin just write over the last one, or are they being filed somewher? Also, I heard that there is an option to display a random skin every time winamp is opened. Where is this option located? Thanks.

OK, found the skins, but I'd still like to know about the "random skin" option when opening. Thanks again.

Not sure on the random skin on open, but if you want to do random skin on play do the following:
Open Winamp
Press Ctrl + P
Click on "Skins"
Down on the bottom put a check next to "Random Skin on Play"
Now click "Close" and you should be set.

I didn't know about that Random Skin option. Sounds fun.
