Will this skin be legal?

[Azarien]

I'm going to add all the missing stuff (from Winamp 2.9/5.0 point of view) to the original WinAMP 1.x skin. Since the work will be heavily based on default 1.x/2.x/2.9 skins, I'm afraid of being accused for skin ripping.
Is it ok to submit such skin into Winamp skins catalog?

for all those who don't know how did WinAMP 1.9 look like:

as long as you give credit to the origonal author, and dont claim too much glory, no-one will care.

There is going to be a Nullsoft version of the winamp 1.0 skin that emulates the original interface down to the last function, including the crappy eq and playlist, that should be finished shortly.

So it will be a modern skin, right?

My intention was to create a classic skin showing how Winamp would look like if the default skin haven't been remastered at least twice:

I could have answered that question without having to create a skin to do it: it would have looked shit.

That oughta be interesting.

Actually, that reminds me. I used to have a Winamp 2.x version of the Winamp 3 skin that I loved so very very much. I don't know who made it, but I rather stupidly didn't save it when I reformatted my hard drive... has anyone seen that floating around, by chance? I've looked all over the Winamp site and couldn't find it anywhere.

Ah well. Thanks!
