[preview] iTunes Vista for iTunes 5

I have wanted a black iTunes skin for as long as I have been using iTunes. Now it has become possible with the latest versions of iTunes and Multi-Plugin. Check out what I have done so far. I have a lot left to do, but it is coming along nicely. Next I am going to make some new buttons for the bottom bar, and I am going to change the scroll bars to match KoL's Vista XP visual style. You can get the matching visual style/window blinds skin and wallpaper here:

Y.A.V.S.O.A.S.

Yet another Vista skin on Aqua-Soft <_<

Don't get me wrong, it looks very nice. It's just you posted it in improper place. We're mac emulating community.

Looks bloody good though!

Posted it here because this is where localhost's multi-plugin for iTunes is posted and other skins for it.

where is there an aero soft? i thought they closed.

#318910

You can go post on Aeroxp.net

#318923

thats not really a forum dedicated to modification and skinning like aerosoft

#318941

it's a skin. so skins can be anything. and it falls in the category of a skin. don't look at it as a longhorn/vista issue instead a skin for itunes+multiplugin. and yes, aero-soft is closed. really great skin there mate!

#318945

it's awesome

and since it's for itunes who cares?

there's aero-ish skins for mac and nobody tells them anything

it'll be great when the wb5 beta comes out

#318948

Really gr8 skin m8! keep going, i wilbe looking forward for it .

I am not going to get into the rant. :@

#318952

why don't you take your aero-skinning ass outta here and jump off a ****ing cliff, you ****ing asshole!

yes, i'm kidding. i think the skin looks great and i'm amazed that sometimes people take offense to work which doesn't fit in their little box. oh ****! i just looked up and it was pe8er who said that. oh, well...

(golly, i cuss a lot!)

Can't see the screenshot.

@ judge: how did you know

@ rest: I'm just a poor Rules enforcer. Don't blame me, it's nothing personal.

I'm with peter...

Been looking for a good black iTunes for a while now, good work !

#319067

damn, it's so great that it's possible to skin the background now

I'm more into the Mac style, but when a program could be skinned with almost a single click, I like to switch skins often.

btw your skin needs a brighter font color too - I'm working on it.

I personally do not like the gloss|glass effect on the buttons for the mini player. I think it should be updown like the full view, but that seems like it would be tricky to pull off.

Great skin otherwise.

Czanchez: I was just messin around and I came up with a few ideas for what you was talking about. Check out the screenshot bellow.

Here is a screenshot of some alternate minimode closemaxmin buttons. Let me know which one you think looks best!

So which one do you all think looks best??

I really wish I could be like in beta or something for this skin. All I want is a dark skin that matches my vista skin. If there is another one out there tell me. However I will wait until this gets done. Hopefully soon

@ffpsx: I personally like the middle pciture's buttons, the ones that go to the left edge of the window.

#320253

I like the 4th one. Third is also nice but too glossy.

#320370

Update: Hey, I have been real busy getting ready for exams, but I will have a release ready by this weekend. I need to make the scroll bars and the bottom buttons. For now I just have the default buttons set for the bottom. With Multi-Plugin 2.1 I can now change the font color, so this skin is lookin a whole lot better. Check out the newest screen shot below.

wow, ffpsx, that is one of the most complete and original looking skins i've ever seen!

#320859

wow man....nice skin

this is a good itunes theme that doesnt resemble mac

cant wait for the release

yes i know the point of the message boards here is to make your pc look mac-ish

but it is a sad excuse when u could buy a mac( and no i dun own a mac...i just like themeing)

mac themes are great and all for apps and such...but it is nice to see something else

now with visual themes(taskbar and such)
