Plug-in recommendations?

Can anyone recommend a skin or visualization that will largely display currently-playing track information such as title, album, artist. Also displaying album art would be a bonus but it's not as important. The idea is to see what's playing by looking at my computer screen from a distance.

You could try Toaster. It is a highly configurable notifications plug-in.

Instead of having something displayed on the screen, the title could be announced with one of the following voice plugins.

Thanks, JonnyMac. Toast seems to be the closest to what I was looking for. Not exactly it (since it operates outside of WinAmp rather than right in it, meaning the damn thing pops up even if I'm working on some other active window), but it sure is close enough.

Much appreciated for the pointers!
