Version 2.00 (01/2000)

Synopsis
--------
SharonAMP... Dedicated to you, our future pioneers! Based on the popular
anime "Macross Plus," SharonAMP features none other than the ultimate
songstress herself, Sharon Apple.
This is my first (and currently only) WinAMP skin. If you have any comments
about this skin (good or bad), feel free to drop me an e-mail. I always like
hearing from folks who enjoy this skin as well as those who have suggestions
on how to improve this or future skins of mine.
As you can see, in this version I've finally gotten around to skinning the
windowshaded EQ and Minibrowser (hooray!). I've also just generally gone around
the whole skin and polished up a few things here and there. I _was_ planning on
adding some artwork to the EQ window this go around, but decided not to at the
last minute. I have a really nice graphic for the EQ window, but it looks
pretty bad when it's actually in use because all the EQ sliders get in the way.
If I can redesign the sliders to my liking or if Nullsoft changes the skin
specs so you can skin the EQ differently, I'll release a version of SharonAMP
with the EQ graphic. If you just gotta have artwork in your EQ, e-mail me and
I'll send you the file.
Yes, I realize that I didn't put in a Stereo/Mono indicator, you can quit
e-mailing me about that now. :-) The indicator was left out on purpose due to
the fact it blocked Sharon's face. Plus, it's a pretty useless indicator to
begin with. Honestly, how many of y'all actually pay attention to it, hmm? ;-)
That's about it for me. Enjoy the skin and be on the lookout for future
projects.

Version Changes
---------------
1.00 - Initial public release. (10/98)
1.10 - Changed the look of the volume and balance slide bars. Adjusted the
position of the EQ and Playlist buttons. Skinned the EQ and PL windows.
(10/98)
1.11 - Found a minor problem with the PL window and fixed it.
(10/98)
2.00 - Finally got around to skinning the Minibrowser as well as the
windowshaded EQ (Hey, it only took a little over a year ;-). Adjusted
the main.bmp so that there would be no "pop-up" of the title scroller,
vis display, and bitrate indicators. Most likely, this will be the
final version unless Nullsoft up and changes the skin specs again.
