Description: A simple XMMS skin based on the Plastik widget style and window decorations.
I love my Plastik desktop and wanted XMMS to match. This is my first XMMS/Winamp skin and my first upload to KDE-Look. The skin was created using KSnapshot, the GIMP, and the SkinnersAtlas template.
All in all I'm quite pleased with the results. As far as I can tell the skin is bug-free, but since I don't use the equaliser or windowshades there may be bugs lurking there that I've not yet caught. If any of you have any questions, comments, or suggestions (aesthetic or otherwise) I would very much like to hear them.
When I decided to upload the skin to KDE-Look, I discovered that there were already two Plastik based XMMS skins posted here. I created mine from scratch, but you may want to check out theirs if they better match your system: http://kdelook.org/content/show.php?content=7947 http://kdelook.org/content/show.php?content=13613Last changelog:
version 1.0
- First public release - Known issues: * The button icons and text labels are very plain (stolen from SkinnersAtlas). * The equaliser is empty and boring. (I don't use it, so I probably won't change it unless I get a good suggestion.) * The stereo/mono icons are fuzzy. I'm not sure I really like them at all. They may get replaced entirely. * The big blue 'K' button may be a little over the top.
Installation is easy:
1. Download the .wsz file and move it to ~/.xmms/Skins .
2. Fire up XMMS and press ALT+S to open the skin browser.
3. Select the skin from the list and the XMMS windows should be instantly reskinned.

A very clean, perfect match, and no odd kinks so far. Good stuff!
I think so to, but I feel you can smothen it quite a bit
What parts do you feel should be smoother? The button icons and text, or something else?
