Please don't ignore this - I want this skin as it is now!

Actually I've tried many other skins with loads of information but it just don't suite me, and imo, don't suite any general PC user either.

All shortcuts are either by autohotkey or have desktop icons placed on my PC and i love them the way the are.

Sure I was lured with extremely good looking themed skins with loads of information displaying making it look even more stunning but I was always in look for a Generic skin which blend with my OS default viewty seamlessly.

Also I don't wany too many "distractions" on my skin that's why I want it as it is now!

Please code it as it is in this mockup.

that looks great. be sure to add album art to the media bit!

your background graphic needs a little work. let me know if you want to learn an easy way to get a perfect windows 7 window

Not bad. It is a little boring I think but matches the windows 7 style well. The color choices were awesome. Vury pretty. :>

ich hab leider Samu noch nicht mit foobar zum laufen bekommen, und es will und will einfach keine neue Version kommen

es wΓ€re richtig geil wenn die Entwickler von LS, es als Widget engine rausbringen wΓΌrden

novoo In reply to chiwou [2009-10-25 11:18:54 +0000 UTC]

funktioniert doch mit foo_spam..
dann steuert samurize quasi foobar ΓΌber winamp (ohne das installiert sein muss)

FYI foo_spam geht nicht mehr mit der neuesten Version von foobar musste shpeck nehmen

noch einen schΓΆnen Sonntag

really nice! I loike the tray area.

definitely a system-wide volume slider,

and something that I have been looking for for a media player control is a button to change between to sound volume presets. one being 100% and one 80% or something like that, because I always lower the foobar volume when I put on my headset
