did winamp throw away a bunch of old skins from their site?

9th July 2011, 06:34

hi I was just looking for an old skin I used to use i think it was called 'hadez ice amp' or hades ice amp or something like that.
I was feeling nostalgic so I thought I would find it again. i found it on winamp around 1999 or 2000.
Anyway I cant find it anymore. did winamp seriously delete all the old skins or something?

All incomplete skins by Winamp 5 standards were deleted. Some old favorites were updated by a group of dedicated skinners and published under the Nullsoft Classicz account.

I'm in the same position as the OP. I just formatted and came to the skins section to redownload a minimalistic skin I've been using for the past few years. I can't remember the name of it....

It was very slender and almost completely black. Everything else was a nice blue (equalizer, etc), and it had a green counterpart, both skins are seemingly gone. The thing I remember most about the skin was that the minimize/windowshade/close buttons were completely invisble.

It looked very much like "slender", but the blue was a bit darker. Anyone have any ideas? Or know the one that I'm talking about and can maybe upload it? I really loved that theme.

EDIT: I found a picture of it from an oldscreencap. I attached it to this post. Please help!

Dunno, but I bet some talented skinner could 'remake' that from that screenshot in no time, it's not over complex....

I'd really appreciate it if someone could. I really think that was one of, if not the best minimalist skin that Winamp had.

"Slender" is close, but it's not quite there.

Can't find a place to edit my last post...is it a time-related thing?

Anyway, here's a link to a skin that's basically just a complete clone of the one I had, but with a few slight differences (sliders are tourquoise instead of the blue at the top for some reason. The site's logo is the "about" button. The buttons at the top ARE visible).

If there was ever a quick job for a skinner, it would be to alter this skin to make it look like the one in my screen, just requires a few changes:

i think the timeout is 180 minutes as usually anything after that would make more sense as a new post in most cases.
