Color Editor 2.2.1 released

[Mikey7]

I'll take a look at getting a new Color Editor out after the next 5.9 public release.

I'm certain a lot of us are looking forward to it!

best thing to do is post a new thread in the winamp section with your request

Hi @martin.deimos, how do I get the Color-Editor to work on v5.9?

[Sabine Klare]

I have uploaded a new .xml-file to Mediafire. I can edit my blogs, notices and journals in Last.fm, MySpace, Facebook and deviantART everytime, while I cannot edit a forum's post on the next day anymore. But I need the edit-feature, if suddenly a download-link does not work anymore. I know, not everybody has an account in Facebook, and another friend wasn't allowed by his Kaspersky to visit deviantART. At least Last.fm shouldn't make problems now. Please scroll down to find the download-link to "Bento_2":

http://www.lastfm.de/user/SabineKlare/journal/2012/07/29/5k0uba_my_xml-_&_txt-files

I have my new file as "Bento_2" in a backup directory outside from Appdata and BOOT(C), although the real name of this .xml-file is "Bento" (it's also the real name in the directory of Appdata).
Here I have a little quote from my first .xml-file:


<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>

<!-- This file was generated by Wasabi Color Theme Editor v2.0.

This is NOT the file you should distribute. To distribute your custom themes, you should use the export button on the editor and then create an NSIS package that installs the exported file in the plugins\ColorThemes\name_of_the_skin directory of Winamp5, under a filename that is unique to your color theme pack. -->

<WasabiXML version="1.0">


I wish to export my 20 Themes (they are for me now), but how can I create an NSIS package that installs the exported file, if I am NOT a software developer? I am only an artist in Music, Art, Lyrics, Videos...

Maybe v2.3.0 preview :P



I made some changes to version 2.2.1 of the Color Editor that others might find useful:
- Updated layout
- Added generate color tool (Make sure your source color is correct and then this tool will change the sliders so that they match your specified required color). Please note that not all colors can be calculated 100%. For this reason the required and generated color is shown next to each other for you to compare.
- Fixed faq link
- New folder button (takes you to your appdata folder where the themes are saved)
- Fixed guru error when you try to apply the slider editbox value
- Fixed guru error when you switch between RGB and HSL mode

I changed the about screen to show v2.3.0 (not the .wac version number - still 2.2.1).

To install the attached zip, close Winamp and extract the files to your "C:\Program Files (x86)\Winamp\Plugins\freeform\wacs\ColorEditor" directory

If who ever is in charge of maintaining the installer for the Color Editor want to include the changes it would be great. Would also help if the installer included the source code for the maki files.

PS: The "Clone" theme option doesn't work anymore. It clones the theme but all the values are changed to zero . So in effect it's cloning the default theme.

Download-Link finally here

Hello victorbrocaz,
thank You. I have followed Your instructions, and I have found the XML-document "Bento" there, its last changes were 2 months ago. Good to know that. I am making backups very often, and then I am copying from my Appdata/Roaming my both whole folder "Winamp" and "Winamp_Backup" on my stick to keep them really as backups. I have really luck...
Maybe I should upload a copy of my XML-document also to a file-hoster, although I am finding my 10 themes not very famous, because these are only cloned themes, but I have some screenshots of a little part of them (and some of currently 2736 screenshots)... http://sternenmaschinebine.deviantart.com/
PS, I have Windows Vista Home Premium 32-bit...
Oh no, Dropbox does not work. I want to try Mediafire and then I want to come back...

Edit: I have it now on Mediafire: http://www.mediafire.com/file/xgrx61njhr7imhu/Bento.xml

Ey! I know that answer hehe, it´s not so easy to find or remember so I saved a txt file with the adress.
At least in my Windows 7 (Home Premium) they are in:
C:\Users\Yourusername\AppData\Roaming\Winamp\Plugins\Freeform\wacs\coloreditor\data.


Tell me if you don´t have luck (I know I took that adress from somewhere here)

[Sabine Klare]

Hello everyone,
I have looked into the folder with the downloaded plugin-setups. I know, that I have installed the "Winamp Bento Color Theme Pack 1.07" in the end of February (I have downloaded it in that time). In April I had downloaded the "Winamp 5 Color Editor v2.2.1", but much later (in July) "Color Editor 2 1 0". I must have installed the Color Editor much earlier (maybe in April), but I don't know that exactly anymore...
I do not find a folder of the Color Editor in Programm Files > Winamp > Plugins... and I do not find a "dll", not in the folder of Winamp and not in my plugins-list (One for Nunz), which I use for my own controls...
But if I hit the "Orange Buttom" on the top left in my Winamp 5.581, I can see "Color Editor", and I have created 10 themes, "New Theme" and "Clone Theme" are working very fine, I can click "Save", and I can find them all in Options > Preferences > Skins > Modern Skins > Color Themes...
On my hard drive I cannot find my 10 own themes... How can I save a copy of them, if something could happen to my Winamp or my computer?...
I continue to be very anxious of a new version of the "Winamp Bento Color Theme Pack" (You can take a look to the other thread in Winamp Forums > Winamp > Winamp Discussion... it is at the top of that page)...

Sheesh doesn't work for me.

[iron2000]

Excuse me for quoting myself, but Color Editor 2.2.1 doesn't work with WA 5.61. Any hope for an update?

Actually Color Editor 2.2.1 works on Winamp 5.61 for me.
I just created a new colortheme, edit it and saved it.

[Disasterpiece]

2.2.1 doesn't seem to work well with Winamp 5.6 (5.601) - will we see a new version soon?

Loving the program. Just downloaded version 2.2.1 and it is working great on Winamp 5.581.

To help me with future color designs, I quickly whipped up this template to see which name corresponds to which graphic in Winamp. Hopefully it will come of use to someone. Sorry if it is a little jumbled up in some areas.

[master88]

Any news about the latest version of who will be compatible with the current version of Winamp???
I really depend on this program
