Description
Update: I changed the currentBG color to be a bit lighter so that it's easier to read what song is currently playing in the playlist editor. It doesn't exactly match the color scheme which is why it took me so long to do this but at least you can read the text. As for the library, I do not know how to change the colors to reflect the same changes so if you know how please tell me and i'll fix it.System5 Winamp skin created to go along with andymorum's System5 windows xp theme which can be found at [link]
Video window is not skinned and probably will not be skinned in the future as I do not use it.

its a classic winamp skin (not modern) so opacity is disabled my default.

I love the System-style (Pretty old version though, the one with Marine Blue color option, the newest has a bit too much contrast) so this skin goes well with my Winamp - it's awesome but has one little point that I would have liked to have.. It's very hard to see which song is playing by looking at the playlist, the current song is only dark blue while every other song is on black text, it would have been 5 stars if you would have made just a little more highlighting to the current song, now I'll give it 4.6 out of 5

didn't even know that andymorum had updated system, i'll have to check that out. i understand your comment, but if i feel that adding another color would take away from the color scheme (i think that the skin incorporates about 4-5 colors) and to through in a green/red/purple would just make it atrocious to look at. Feel free to mod it to your taste though, it only involves changing the color code of one line in the pledit.txt file.

I ment that I like the older System better, not the 5 which is the newest - not much difference in them though..
Would it be possible to easily change that when a song is playing, it would have same kind of background color like the one when I just click some file on the playlist, but much lighter? It would then bring up a lot that current song, but wouldn't mess around with the highlighting when selecting song?
Could you point out how can I change the pledit.txt, I've never modded any skins and all I've got it that .wsz-file :/

the .wsz file can be opened up with winzip or winrar (it's essentially a .zip file just renamed to .wsz). in there you'll find the pledit.txt along with 6 digit color codes. mess around with the normalBG and selectedBG color codes to find one that you like.

Too bad there's no currentBG
