=========================
1. About BathTile:
"Close your eyes and breathe deeply. Relax your body, relax your mind. Now I want you to go to a special place, where it's calm and safe. Are you in your special place? Good. Tell me about it."
"Oh, it's cool and quiet, with the sound of running water."
"Good. Go on."
"And all around it's pink. With chrome."
"Excuse me?"
"Yeah, pink with chrome and sudsy, clean things. Are you there with me? You can feel it, can't you? It's a great place to be."
BathTile is a skin that perhaps should never have been made. But the image burst into my brain one day and refused to leave. So I mulled it and refined it and created a skin to share with you.
Although I'm soley responsible for this skin, I'd to like to implicate some others. So here are a few names from Winamp's Skin Love forum:
Oratem - who ignited, and fanned, the spark that blazed forth into BathTile
Jayn - who made the color choice obvious
Xerxes (aka Commodore Perry) - just because I want to skin like him
Duk - who got me past a mental block, and he doesn't even know it!
2. About Skin Files:
Winamp is a software-based digital audio player for Windows systems. One of Winamp's many features is the ability to customize the GUI with "skin" files, of which this archive is one. You can download Winamp at http://www.winamp.com.
To use this archive, simply move it (still as a zip file) into your Winamp skins directory, generally C:Program FilesWinampSkins. Within the Winamp options menu you will find the Skin Browser, which allows you to select the look of Winamp.
This file might have an extension of "wsz". If so, it is still a valid zip archive which has simply been renamed. This renaming allows Winamp to automatically install the skin when you open the file through any conventional Windows method.
This archive may be distributed freely as long as no profit is gained from any such transactions. No files within the archive may be altered or deleted.
3. About MikroAmp:
This zip file includes a skin for MikroAmp, a Winamp plug-in by Michael Jervis. MikroAmp provides a small, handy interface for Winamp which keeps all Winamp's controls tucked neatly into a corner of your desktop.
If you have MikroAmp installed, you don't need to do anything more for the BathTile skin, MikroAmp will apply it automatically.
You can download MikroAmp at http://www.skinmaster.co.uk/
