Oh, more details to adjust. It looks like I have to update the MM5 version after all, though I had trouble doing that last time I tried, so it was easier rolling back to the b1243 that worked, than solving the problem. (Yes, I send you the .mmip in advance when it works for me, thank you Erwin for all help)

Hello Johan,

the new TOOLBAR has been available since some versions of MM5.
This is displayed illegibly.

P.S.: You can send me the .mmip in advance for testing. I think you still have my email address.

And thank you very much Erwin for telling me when it didn't work!

A major update of Perpetual skin is made. It's pretty extensive changes, but hopefully to the better, so I release it as a new version instead of a new skin. Whats new: Added lamps lighting up the panels, black window list and toolbar. Changed hover behavior + some small adjustments. (Click here if you want to see it before it has been approved on the MM-addons page).

Tank you for your suggestion. I will absolutely take it under consideration. Especially I liked the look of lamps that lights up a scale on a radio. Hm, hm. Now I have to think.
I would appreciate it, That was my favorite Winamp skin and I saw that yours was so close, but the gold / yellow color in Dr. Sol's Perpetual seems to have a greenish gold tint to me, it is always hard to nail the exact color.

You could always release multiple different skins with slight differences -- "Dr. Sol's Perpetual", "Dr. Sol's Elegance", "Dr. Sol's Nucleo" -- or make multiple color themes defined in info.json, similar to the default Material Design skin. https://www.mediamonkey.com/wiki/Skinni ... _your_skin

I looked at this skin for a while and wish it was slightly different, Is it possible to tweak this skin to be more like this one for Winamp?

It is like the Dr. Sol's Perpetual skin color scheme is slightly off.

Thank you Sonos, for your alert, but I think this is related to the MM-program, and not to the Perpetual skin? Other skins behaves in the same way when I have tested. Even the default skin (the green one) behaves like this. So, I don't think I will do anymore with this for the moment. Perhaps somebody in the developer team can put the slim behavior on a bug list if it is not an intention of having it like this?

Ok, I will look on this.

New version with adjusted sizes of text.

(Still using Garamond, but had to adjust font-sizes exclusively without influence other things like margin, border, padding etc)

The shrinking in the new version (3.3....) no longer takes place. :D However, the window that opens when deleting songs from the Playing List:

Playing List > Confirmation (e.g. remove from Playing List only)

is still in the slimmest form* i.e. the text has a lot of line breaks and is therefore more difficult to read.
