Winamp3 Skin

[Hawk]

Well I was thinking the other day as I browsed the many features of the MMD3 winamp3 skin, that I would really like to be able to make something like it. Winamp 3 skins are so much more complicated than winamp 2 skins, but much more useful and customizable. One can show off much style while incorporating the buttons and funtionality into the piece.

What I am interested in is making a skin in collaboration with one or two other people. Since I lack skill in XML and some of the other things needed, I would offer my handy photoshop and cinema 4d skills.

So basically I am looking for a partner to create a skin for winamp 3. I don't have any idea what it would look like, we can brainstorm and others can voice their opinions too. But this is a fun, leisurely project so it would not be a payed position.

Also I have school work as many of you probably do, so this is not a one week thing, maybe more like 2 weeks or a month. As I said, a very leisurely project, but fun.

If anyone is interested please post here and/or contact me via email or AIM.

I tried to do some the month after winamp 3 came out but I discovered a) that you had to know about xml to do it and you had to program some of the things in the skin to make it *special*
b) that winamp3 was a very sucky program that ate up all your RAM and didn't have the functionnality of winamp2. So I came back to winamp 2.

Winamp 2 skins are quite easy to do. We should have a winamp2 battle... give it more than a month...

Long Live Winamp2! :thumb:

Alright, maybe a kirupian winamp2 skin?

that wouldn't be hard to do - it's mostly a pixel job, plus a bunch of animated cursors...

which brings me back to winamp 3 and the reason i was so interested in it in the first place. there are animations on almost anything you can think of. and the final product looks so cool and i so functional.

well maybe we could try winamp3 and if that fails, we could go for winamp2.
