Yo peoples. I've been working on this skin for a while now and figured seen as it's almost finished, I'll post up a screeny.

This is the main player. There will also be a vertical and horizontal bar mode and perhaps a further compact mode.

So far, I've managed to incorperate pretty much every used feature. I'm all for logical layouts and thought about the placements quite a bit. You can probably guess what does what.

So yeah, here it is:

EDIT: Now with added bar mode #1.
EDIT: Now with added bar mode #2.

I should be finished within the next week :)

Peace, Lance

Lance, it;s an awesome skin but I can't help saying the bottom slider bar jumps out at you compared to the other colors. :)

Thanks for the replies guys.
I've just updated the image as I created a new set of side vumeters. In fact, I tried something new with them and it turned out pretty awesome. They are still vu animation sets, but with a different approach. It looks much better in motion that it does static! Very pleased with the outcome of those. I should have a preview of the bar modes soon too.

@ logokas: Cheers man :) Aye would be cool to see some more of you over there!

@ Cliff: Hmm...interesting 8)

@ xonenine: Aye man it certainly does, but that was the intention! However, it's not green when streaming audio.

Peace, Lance

Updated again. Added a new bar mode. It took quite a long time to figure out a good layout but I'm pretty happy with the final decission. There will also be a smaller bar mode too with bare essentials.

Peace, Lance

If the final bar mode is going to be thin enough to fit over a window titlebar, i'll name this skin the absolute best in the entire list of skins on the database.

Hehe, aye man it is. Thanks a lot for kind words man. It's much appreciated!

EDIT: By the way, do you only use slim bar modes or do you occasionally use full modes too? And are you single or multi screen? Just out of interest that's all.

Peace, Lance

Once you've gone dual you'll never go back to single lol ;)
even more so with 3 monitors, couldn't go back to just 2 ;)
I do draw the line at 3 monitors tho lol ;)

Cool Skin Lance :)

What if you were to just, you know, try a fourth monitor... you could always go back.

Edit: also, I have a dual monitor setup, and I sometimes turn one of them off if I get annoyed at my cursor going to another monitor when I flick over to the Windows Start button. I also do it when I'm gaming to save my card the chore of rendering an unnecessary panel.

I don't even have room for a 30 inch monitor, let alone TWO!

The option IS tempting though, of course.
