Skin Consortium top 20 Modern skins

These were the top 20 most downloaded Modern skins at Skin Consortium on September 7, 2017 when downloads were already broken but the skin pages were still accessible.

Vortex is exluded from the list, because it crashes recent versions of Winamp (v5.551 or later).

It is 21 because I just could not leave out Nitrous Audio CTI Glass.
