Winamp Skins is a collection of 160 skins for Winamp that still work with the latest release including Winamp Lite and Winamp Full. These skins were discovered by Dan, a friend of MajorGeeks who recently found these 160 skins on a backup drive. With interest in Winamp resurging after the beta release, we thought our readers would enjoy these.

Make Winamp Transparent

Actual Transparent Window will make Winamp even handier and more appealing than it already is. It will create a transparency effect for Winamp player in Windows 2000/XP/2003/Vista/7/8/10, ranging fr om 0% (opaque) to 100% (invisible). And you can make semi-transparent the basic Winamp skin or other optional Winamp skins!

Note
The transparency effect cannot be applied to some skins and to displaying video. Actual Transparent Window uses the transparency effect available in standard drawing mechanisms Windows provides for general windows, whereas skinned Winamp and video players use other specific mechanisms (usually DirectX functions). Therefore such windows are not 'general' in their nature, and that's why the standard transparency effect is incompatible with such windows and produces unexpected results when being applied.

You can use Actual Transparent Window to view an application window beneath Winamp by applying transparency effect. This will help you by immediately showing you what windows are open and where they are. The transparency effect also makes for a unique and very attractive appearing desktop.

With Actual Transparent Window you can give each window in Winamp a greater or smaller transparency effect! For example, you can set the transparency rate to be more or less opaque in play list, equalizer, or the main Winamp window!

All you need is to create specific settings to the required Winamp window, defining the following properties in the Target Window Pane:

- For the main Winamp window:

- For the Playlist window:

- For the Equalizer window:

Actual Transparent Window can offer you many ways, both automatic and manual, to use the transparency effect:

Make Winamp Transparent Automatically
Actual Transparent Window lets you set individual transparency rates automatically for different Winamp windows states:
- set the initial transparency to Winampat its startup
- change transparency to another value upon Winamp deactivation and restore the previous value when it is activated again.
- temporarily change the transparency to specified value while a Winamp window is being moved, resized or while mouse pointer hovers over it
Make Winamp Transparent Manually
Also Actual Transparent Window provides some manual methods of choosing the desired transparency for a particular window:

- you can sel ect a desired transparency rate fr om a system menu, available at right-clicking Winamp taskbar entry
- you can toggle the transparency via title bar's double click
Note that having either the title button or window menu option enabled allows you toggling the transparency with the hotkey (Win-T, provided by default).
Transparency Options
And there are some transparency-related options you may find useful. They are called add-ins which means that those options are applied automatically whenever Winamp becomes transparent:
- Stay always-on-top - Winamp won't be covered by other windows even when it becomes inactive
- Ghost - in this case all mouse clicks directed at the transparent Winamp window will bypass that window completely while still remaining subject to keyboard actions like hotkeys

So, it is very easy to switch the transparency effect on, and this feature is very handy.
