Useless Search Engine!#$$#@#%

On the homepage for Skins, Winamp has went out of their way to put "Yahoo" like categories for easy browsing of skins. They also put up a search feature. This is all good, however....

On the same homepage there is a category called "Human" and listed under that category is the entry "Tiger Woods". However, when you do a "search" for Tiger Woods it returns nothing!

WTF $%#@^@$%^#$^&#$^#$%^#$ It must be a microsoft search engine!

Garbage In, Garbage Out. Poor titling and poor descriptions give poor search results. Fair enough.

The author search doesn't seem to work either.
