Winamp 2.0 to 2.90 beta base skin
« on: September 10, 2026, 02:56:07 PM »
I "reconstructed" the pre-2.90 Winamp base skin, using textures from the "Classic.wsz" skin, which was originally used on Winamp3, and the gen.bmp and genex.bmp textures were extracted from Winamp 2.90 beta.

Special thanks to Steve Gedikian for originally creating the skin.
Media Library textures seems to be "bugged" with this genex.bmp file I used, despite this is a "cool" reconstruction I did.

Attach screenshots to the posts & not linking out to services like imgur that are geo-blocked for others (like me).

Also why not just extract the files from 2.81 (unless I'm missing the point of this which is likely when I can't see the screenshots) ?
