I want to make a Winamp Skin, anyone know how? I might make an Apollo one, or a DB one, I'm not sure yet. All I know is that it will be metal. I need some info.

Winamp classic, or winamp freeform (modern)?
if you want to make the modern skin, then:
http://www.winamp.com/nsdn/winamp/skinning/modern/tutorials/Skinning%20Tutorial.pdf
if not, then you'll have to look at:
http://www.winamp.com/nsdn/winamp/skinning/classic/

Can I see a demo now?

I want to make a modern one. I am currently using a PDF that starts you off with a classical example, then works up from there. The code is easy, but I'd rather just do the graphics if anyone is interested in doing the code let me know.

I never looked too deep into how to make a winamp skin, mainly because I'm not very good with graphics. But now that you're going to do that, I think I'll take a look at it again. Lemme go read the tutorials (again) and I'll tell you if I can help or not.

Good. I'll still read the rest of the document. I need to know what sized graphics I am restricted to. Most Winamp skins are small, I don't want a huge one, but I want the buttons to be more visible than the tiny buttons that I keep seeing all of the time.
