LOL! What can I say... I ran a search for "bath" before I made BathTile, to see if anyone else had such an idea. Thank God I didn't find Truckstop Bathroom.

But then, the feelings you get from the two skins are so true to life. heh.

If you hit Kauko Mikkonen's site (designer of Sepish) http://koti.mbnet.fi/kaum/skins/, you'll find some different skins.

It's a different kind of "messed up" from Truckstop Bathroom, but you might enjoy.

and here's one that showed up in the forum a while back:

You can find more of Javier's skins at the end of this thread:

Good hunting.

You want messed up skins?
Mk'ay I serioulsy suggest you check out this FORUM THREAD and then check out the originators , chapino I belive his name was, home page for his winamp download section, or failing that search for some of the names of skins he's posted here onto winamp, think he lists them on page two of the thread.
A more messed up bunch of skins you couldn't hope to meet, I warn you now tho, download at your own risk, if your HD melts and your monitor catches fire it's not my fault ok LOL, I'm just the messanger here ok
Back to the day job

Here's an interesting game

One way to find quirky skins is to browse, generally in the 3-star range.

Or use a variation of Jongmin's backdoor trick. Enter the following URL:

http://www.winamp.com/customize/deta...ponentId=xxxxx

with a five-digit number where the "x"s are. This is some truly random browsing, but you never know what you might find. If you use the higher numbers (they're up to, like, 38900) you can view skins that aren't officially published yet. wheee!

You can find BathTile here:

And the final word in off the beatne path, avante garde (sp?) skins has got to be Mr Jones' "Bare". You can find it in that thread about those ... other ... skins.

Very serious warning, there

Really, Bare is only for experienced users. It helps if you have MikroAmp or something running, too.

Looks like flattmatt is generating a skin just to fill your request. (We're a helpful bunch, here.)

I don't think my hard drive and desktop have recovered yet from those, Mr Jones ... AND it took me 10 showers before I myself felt clean again. Whew! Wicked ... just plain wicked!!!
