TerraSkin 1.0 - Sunset Lagoon by Matrix7
This is my first WinAmp 3 skin so be gentle :D (Big Grin) This is just a version 1 so it is only the player. No EQ, no Thinger, none of that good stuff (thats what they make version 2's for right?).

I noticed that there weren't any skins featuring Terragen art and decided to do one. The graphics work took all of 5 hours but the coding of this thing took the better part of 2 weeks since I am a complete newbie at XML. I was fairly pleased at the way this turned out, though I HATE having to convert it to a lower resolution to enable transparencies (anybody know how to make a high res transparent skin please email me!).

I used a tutorial by Pixelpusher as a base for some of my coding but the rest is all mine. It was definitely a learning experience and I have made quite a few changes from my first concept of it buuuuut here it is! I am planning of making a few more versions with different layout featuring other Terragen scenes by friends of mine here at Devart. If you have a scene that you think really MUST be a skin drop me a not or a comment of a link to that piece and I will consider it.

Next version plans:
Close button, Skin the EQ, menu buttons, color support, possibly switching scenes on the fly (need help from a coder on this), balance and volume sliders.

Thats it! Thanks for the support and I hope ya likes it!
