i have 5.05 but this problem started awhile back. The song title seems to be cut off. the picture is just the main window, I usually have the main window and playlist editor both in winshade. However with the song title being cut off its causes it to seem alittle off. I have winamp 5.05 on my laptop with mmd3 and winshade works fine. Just wondering if there are any known issues that could cause this. I have re-installed winamp altogether to try to fix this, i also have 2.91 installed still. tia

The MMD3 skin that was originally developed by Sven Kistner for Winamp3 v.10 and that is still offered as a download from Winamp.com has been known to not work properly in / have issues with Winamp 5.05. That might have something to do with your problem. Try the unofficial Winamp 5 updated version instead, from the MMD3-for-5 update thread. Download the ZIP file from the link in this post, and read the Readme text file in the ZIP file, to determine which MMD3 skin you prefer to use (2 to choose from, each one handling visualizations differently).

You also said that you have 2.91 still installed. I'd uninstall it if I were you. You should only be using Winamp 5.05 because it fixes many bugs and security issues, including this major security issue that still exists in older Winamp releases (also mentioned in more detail here).
