Question: WMP - IP

GuestSebastian · Post by **GuestSebastian** » Tue Feb 12, 2008 9:33 am

Hello Skinners,
I like Mortons Skins best - Thank you for that great designs!

I'm not talentet enough do skin for my own, so my question:
- Mortons WMP Skin is the one I like best!
- But: Glided IP has the best mini-player for me (also I'm noit an Ipod fan). But i don't like the Grey in the big skin.

Is ist possible to make a skin - for example WMP IP - which contains the Glided IP Mini Player in the original WMP skin??

The would be great!

Sure, be my guest to mix the skins with each other. Whatever suits you.

Go into your skins folder.
Create a new folder to work in, ie:temp.
Copy the .msz for WMP and Gilded and paste them into the new folder.
Rename them both to .zip.
Right click on the WMP.zip and extract all files to this temp folder.
Go into the Gilded.zip until you see FloatPlayer.mskn & FloatPlayer.ini - copy these.
Go back to they extracted WMP and replace the FloatPlayer.mskn & FloatPlayer.ini with the ones that you copied.
Go back and right click on the extracted folder and click Send To > Zip.
Rename this new zip with a custom name (so you do not lose your original WMP) and the .msz extension.
Move it back to your Skins folder.
Done.

Thanks - I've done it.

(@drjboulder: I tried it like that before, my problem was that i used 7zip and than renamed the file and it didn't work. With a zip file it works)

Glad you got it to work!

Warning, these little personal mods can get a little addicting!
