Thats what I went around looking for today, windows media player skins that skin the library, I don't think it is possible. I didn't find even one skin where the library was skinned.. either that or no one likes the library feature enough to skin it :/

I created this

It does include various ports especially the use of smooth-stripes.

If I'm allowed to release it, I'll do that immediately

30 % Complete :D

#52263

great man!! please release it :D

#52286

:woot: :woot: amneisa: waiting for your skin !!

I'm currently working with Binary on what has been called (not by me, I might add) "the most complete iTunes 4 clone skin ever". It has everything an ordinary user could want, save for ripping and burning CDs, and is fully resizable...

I'm looking to release in about 2 weeks, assuming my workload stays the same.

Hope you like it when I release :shy:

The library is difficult to do because you have to create it from scratch using the WMP SDK... I've kinda avoided this in my skin, to a certain extent, but I do occasionally have to go to full mode to do some stuff...

hRmm, have you made a skin already that skins the library too ? I'd like to have my library skinned for a change :lol:

Tell me which library functions you want to carry out, and I'll tell you if my skin does them or not ;)

well basically the list of playlists on the side and when you click it you can see the playlist which you've selected..

Oh, it does that... That's easy! :D

I thought you meant full playlist/media management type stuff!

Funnily enough, mine does all that, and then some...

I'll be putting preview threads both here and on TwistedCPU.com somewhen in the next 12 hours, so you'll be able to see all the cool functionality my skin has...

As a small teaser, here's a few points I think are quite notable:

  • Fully resizable main window, with 2 mini players
  • Resizable video, visualisation and playlist view
  • Full text searching
  • "Now Playing" resizable album art
  • Now Playing/Playlist/All Music/All Video/CD/DVD support in left (source) pane
  • Resizable source/album art area (left pane) and genre/artist/album area (browse pane)
  • Artist/Album filtered by genre, and Album also by artist

Expect a [preview] thread with lots of screenies at about 8pm GMT ;)

#64996

uhm ... what happened to amnesia's skin? :blink:

#65022

sorry guys, I've started uni and life's been a bit hectic.

I'll try to finish it as soon as possible.

I've got the images finished. Just need to organize the stuff.

If someone wants to take over the project in the mean time, it's alright with me to use my preview images.
