What is a WinAmp skin?
A WinAmp skin is an optional additional set of files which create an alternative user interface for WinAmp. Only the graphical appearance such as the shape and colour of items (such as the various displays and controls) is changed, not their position. Most skins seem to have a similar graphical design style to that of pinball machines and amusement arcade video games, where garish colours and fancy shapes and fonts are used, making it very difficult to distinguish the controls. A few skins are available in which the controls are easily seen, for example Cold Fusion (distribution file size 100KB). A large number of WinAmp skins, including Cold Fusion, can be downloaded from the WinAmp web site.
