See Now: How to Change Skins or Themes for VLC Media Player There exists two themes or skins in the official VLC skins website for configuring VLC to imitate the look of Winamp. The best thing about VLC is the option to change its default skin and make it look a bit like Winamp 5. The thing about the default VLC skin is that the playlist window is available on a separate screen. When you add visualizations to VLC when playing audio, it does give us a Winamp like feel, to a certain extent that is. You can use its powerful playlist feature in order to put your music files in a list and play them sequentially, randomly or repeatedly. Regardless of whether or not Winamp will be made open source or whether some other company will buy it to continue its development you can always use VLC Media Player to play your music files.

The software will still be hosted at numerous locations around the internet. Soon the official website will go down as well. The old version or the latest version of the software is available for download from the official website. This would continue the development of Winamp. There is a petition at in order to save Winamp and make it open source. That is why AOL, the parent company which owns Winamp has decided to shut down Winamp and its associated services on December 20, 2013. It used to be really popular, it still is popular among fans but the number of people who use this player has declined. It was a favorite MP3 player of many, but it has been long forgotten by people. Sound off in the comments below.Winamp was once a popular media player used mainly for the purpose of playing music files. Though The Silence v5 and MassAMP are our two favorite Winamp skins, we’re wondering what your faves are. MassAMP’s combination of blacks, greys and blues still retained that kooky quality offered by The Silence v5, while offering a completely different set of aesthetics that still gave me the spooky feel I was going for. I also liked pairing a skin called MassAMP with another Alien desktop theme simply called Aliens the Movie.

So, here’s how my desktop would often look growing up, when I combined The Silence v5 with a desktop theme dubbed Alien ’97 Commemoration.Īwesome huh? This wasn’t the only Winamp skin I was fond of. I love/loved Alien and Aliens, so finding an awesome desktop theme with a matching Winamp skin to go with all the other stuff going on in my room all those years was just gravy. Plus, usually I paired it with a matching Alien desktop theme. Not only did it sport an awesome green/black color combination, but everything down to the font at the top of skin made it look eerie. Though Winamp has plenty of awesome skins, my tastes led me to develop a love for two Winamp skins in particular. Picking an appropriate desktop theme to match with the Winamp skin I chose was also a must. I’d often go with a skin that would match the hue given off by one of my lamps. Picking a Winamp skin was part of this customization process. I made a habit of tricking my room out with lava lamps, candles and incense to go along with whatever Black Sabbath, Pink Floyd or song/playlist I was listening to at the time. Growing up, I not only developed a love for Winamp and its skins, but I also got into a bunch of other stuff you wouldn’t expect from a kid in the 90s and 2000s. That includes Winamp, the media player that’s been around since 1997, which offers its users the ability to personalize the player with user-created skins, along with a bevy of other features, including MP3 and CD ripping. I have an affinity for the 90s like few others do.
