Earlier this year I stumbled across earth amp, a beautiful skin for Winamp. I liked it so much that I contacted its author Christian Grass and asked him if he could do a version of earth amp that uses Netalive.org's header photo for its background.

He agreed, and this weekend he finished his work on it. Now look at this beauty!

You may download netalive amp here.

Many, many thanks to Christian who took his time to create this skin alongside with his diploma thesis.

What version of Winamp is the netalive skin for? It doesn't work with version 3, well at least not on my computer it doesn't.

Version 2.

It would also work with the new Winamp5 beta.

Winamp5 has all the cool features of 3, but it's got all the good parts of 2 as well. 2 + 3 = 5. It supports skins from 2 and 3 and doesn't hog resources like 3 does. Check it out.

You can download from one of these mirrors:

Now that's something at last. Whenever I opened Winamp 3 on my old PC, it grinded to a halt. Then I spent every penny I owned on a new machine, and Winamp 3 still behaved like a fat cow. That did it for me. I returned to Winamp 2 and never looked back.

Oh now thats nice. I installed Winamp 5. I like its default skin. I never noticed any lag with Winamp 3. I'll take your word for it though. However this laptop is a 3.06 Ghz so there isn't much lag with anything really. Haha ... =)

Thanks Jaz for the info and the posted screenshot! By the way it looks very nice.

This kinda reminds me of this. (Replace "recreational game" with "Winamp skin")

:-)

Seriously, it's great that it's finally here! Do you still need the Swiss chocolate for payment?

Christian wrote that because he took so long, because he ended up actually having fun doing it and because he isn't so keen on sweets anyway, we ought to save the money and have a nice evening with it.

I'm not yet sure whether I should let him get away like that.

The skin does look beautifal, however it's a Winamp 2 skin and I can't use it. :-(

Think there'd be anyway you could get someone to do a Winamp 3 version?
