    I have not worried about WinAmp for a while--mostly, I just occasionally played music with it--I rediscovered it. Now, I want to bring it to my day program with me and add skins. I Googled winamp skins and didn't find any working and good ones. I'm mainly into Anime, Sci-Fi, Fantasy and Nature themes and sites with loads of skins that are easy to browse. Can anybody recommend any good sites?

    The initial problem was I couldn't access the skins on the first two given sites. winampheritage.com gave some, but I really want more and better ones, especially Anime, Sci-Fi/Fantasy, game and nature skins. I'll try the other ones given here now.

    I tried winaero.com, clicked the link and couldn't find any skins. What happened?

    I have no idea what you're doing.
    When I click the link I see 10 skins.
    And there are 52 pages...

    It has to be on your end (computer). Eldon is in South Africa and I'm in the US and we can both sees all the sites. Eldon uses Firefox and I use Palemoon.

    I even fired up Internet Explorer and tried 3 sites. I could see skins with no problems on IE.

    My fault. I saw the links on winaero.com. I was looking at the site the wrong way, but I still have a problem with the site's organization: no categories. :(

    Unfortunately you'll have to go through all 500+ skins... :eek:

    I have an old copy of WinAmp on my laptop along with some skins. Is there a way to extract the skins and install them on another computer?

    Look in Program Files\Winamp\Skins.
    Custom skins have the file extension .wal.
    Copy the skin files.
