Skins / Winamp Classic Modern by Victhor
« on: July 15, 2019, 08:34:52 PM »


This skin is aimed to those who love the simplicity of the classic  skin but need to jump to a more high-res-friendly or modern design.
 
 All  features I could replicate from the classic skin are here, even the loading speed, to a certain degree. More than this would have feel bloated and unnecessary, so I left it for another version, a full / more complete one that will be launched later (hopefully this year).
 
 So, these are the cool features you'll get if you decide to abandon classic skin and adopt this sweet little skin:
  Sharp graphics on a scale similar to classic doublesize
  71 Color themes
  3 modes repeat
  3 modes songticker
  Enlarge ALL windows horizontally to achieve the perfect layout
  Dock every window to screen edges
  AlbumArt window
  ..and all the things you already love from the good old classic!
 
 
...
Update v1.03 (30/07/2019):
. Added Gordon Freeman's color themes
. Added "Stop after current" signal on ctrl+v
. Fixed cursor on EQ "+12db" / "0" / "-12db" buttons
. Fixed wasabi.list.background.alternate color gammagroup
. Fixed ctrl+w bug on Playlist
. Improved timer font (edited minus sign)
. Enabled inactive state for Main shade mode to better match classic skin behaviour
. Put some order on EQ resizers

General Discussion / WACUP logos
« on: January 20, 2019, 09:18:53 PM »
Official WACUP logos (with specific font and colors) for use on promotion pics and such. Please use these when preparing graphic material referring to the project.

PS: If there's interest I could upload vector versions and wallpapers / headers for use on Facebook / Twitter / Instagram / etc.

General Discussion / Splash images for WACUP
« on: January 04, 2019, 04:52:07 AM »
I've been doing some splash screens to use with WACUP and give it a little more flavour. Feel free to download and use on your WACUP!

To replace your splash screen just put any of these files on your WACUP data folder (something like C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Roaming\WACUP) and rename it to splash.png.


Also, if you want to do some splash screens yourself, I'm uploading -on the next post- a transparent PNG you can use (a cut from the original with "Winamp" reconstructed from my files + WACUP label). Don't forget to post back here! Any ideas are welcome!

Skins / Big Bento Modern v1.2
« on: May 16, 2018, 10:12:03 PM »



Tired of Winamp looking so old and microscopic? Big Bento Modern is a complete re-design of the last Winamp default skin, aiming to be readable -and usable- on high resolutions, with a fresh look and smooth animations.

Years in the making, it's now offered for free, spread the word if you like it and/or donate what you can (with PayPal) so we can keep our beloved music player really up to date.


____________________________________________________________________________________________________________


Zip file includes standard and a Windows 10 styled version, both with light mode. Just place all folders (don't rename it!) on your Winamp skin's directory. Read the included .txt for extra details on the skin, languages and WACUP related info.

* Polish lang pack done and updated by Paweł Porwisz and french by Azuryth, big thanks to both of them!
* Also, big thanks to Darren Owen for the shortcuts used on Playlist info buttons.

Skins / Winamp skinning resources
« on: April 07, 2018, 10:34:53 PM »
I know Winamp skinning is a dying/dead art but from time to time there are people asking questions about how to skin. Hopefully the files and links I'm putting on this thread can help.

This is my personal collection of stuff, references and resources I use when skinning. The order may be a bit random or scattered, sorry, I don't have the time to put it all into a step by step guide, so use with.. patience XD. Also, if you have a useful link I'm missing, don't hesitate to add it on this thread too.

Skins / Big Bento Modern Beta
« on: September 24, 2017, 05:02:39 AM »
Here we go...

After so so long, I'm pleased to present you my last skin, Big Bento Modern.

There is so much to say about it -and I suck so much at being clear and concise- that I'm just leaving you with the skin and some notes at the bottom:



The skin is 98% complete, CHECK THE README FILE inside the skin folder for details on what may be missing.

FEATURES HIGHLIGHTS:
* BBB >> Bigger / Better / Beautiful (translates into: High-res friendly / lots of features / modern style) ;)
* File info panel has a much better approach on covers and readability
* Multi-tools panel with highly customizable buttons
* Playlist info with never-seen-before info mix
* Huge, more complete and actually usable Skin settings page
* Cooler EQ tab
* Integrated Lyrics and Youtube video finder (using your favorite web browser of course)
* Translate-friendly setup (spanish Winamp translation included)
* Lots more, just try it.



FINAL RELEASE! 05/2018 (v1.02). Check the new thread here: https://getwacup.com/community/index.php?topic=327.msg2379



BIG UPDATE! 03/11 (v0.93):

New = Spanish Winamp Language pack (wlz) (use included "wasabi.xml" to translate the skin to your own language). IMPORTANT NOTE: Currently not working on WACUP. It will when DrO reactivates that function (see https://getwacup.com/community/index.php/topic,212.msg1743.html#msg1743 for details).
New = "Skin Tips" (toggable from Skin Settings or through Right Click).
New = Search Playlist animation on click + visual clues to denote functionality (funnier when no results ;) ).
New = Songticker and Times animation on load.

Fixed = Bass and Treble thumbs are now centered when refreshing the skin.
Improved = Less chances that File info labels ("Kbps", "hz") end up truncated when using custom fonts (thanks Pawel).
Improved = Added outline to generic windows so it doesn't blend with the player itself.
Improved = "Notifier" references changed to a more standard "Notifications".
Improved = "Show Playlist Tab" is now on "Playlist" settings (makes more sense and clears some space on "Appearance").
Improved = (Skin Settings - Notification) Sub-menu text (colored in purple) changed to actual text objects (99% of the skin's text is not an image now).
+ lots of minor gfx fixes and improvements)

Implemented Requests / Add Classic Spectrum Analyzer as optional Vis
« on: April 07, 2017, 02:01:54 AM »
Just an idea (with trick of course..). How possible would be to add Classic Spectrum Analyzer as an option to Milkdrop? (preview here, downoad here).



Example of the visualizer blended with the skin background:




It's not only an incredibly, responsive visualizer, IMO it's also an evolution of the traditional Spectrum Analyzer with a VERY flexible setup (basically you can change EVERYTHING you see).

Trick / downside is that a) It needs some caring since it's sort of buggy sometimes and b) I'm not sure source files are available... =/

Skins / cPro2 Grafito by Veroka and Victhor
« on: April 05, 2017, 06:12:34 AM »
2 argentinians joined forces (¿?) and after years in the making, it's finally here! Veroka originally started this years ago and I took it as a base to make an almost new skin. First cPro2 collaboration with her, turned up quite nice I think. Enjoy.

Skins / Modern Bento Touchscreen WIP skin
« on: January 03, 2017, 06:26:29 PM »
WIP - Teaser - Sneak peek.. you'll see there is a lot done already, the path is long and I've been with this skin last 6 months or so, but there is still too much to be done yet that I can't help but feel it's still a long way to go..

Anyway, I do think it's also a proper time to make it public somehow so I can get some feedback before going on.

The idea for the skin is born on the continuous request of a lot of people asking for a "larger Bento", because "labels are so tiny to see", "buttons are small", "my new resolution makes everything microscopic", etc. So, at first I just wanted to clear up the look of it to gain some legibility, so it came 2 first versions:



But it didn't seem enough, so I went BIG, although I knew the nightmare started exactly there...



From that point, I've just took Windows 10 proportions and adjusted buttons and labels to that, moving foward to make everything easier to access / read on high resolutions or touchscreen environments, so that's where I'm now:



totally WIP EQ and a sort-of Coverflow which probably won't stayed like this at all:



And finally a complete look, with the pop up Volume bar, double visualizer and expanded tab area:




My list of To-do and ideas is reaching 25 items already (raging from simple bigger notifier to a whole new implementation of features), I'll post it at some point if there is some interest.


Hope you like it and have enough patience for it =). Comments and observations are more than welcome.

PS: Sorry for the big images, please drag it to a new tab to see it completely or go to Right click > View image.
