Description I know there's already hundreds of iTunes controllers, I made this to test out scaling within a skin with math. I wasn't going to submit this , but a friend of mine stumbled on it and loved it so why not share it with the masses?


The reasoning behind this is that I wanted the background of the skin to be the actual album art and that's it, everything else appeared with a mouseover within the album art


If you want a more precise size like 327 right click the skin and select edit and you will see Size=150 (or any number) and replace that with 327 click save and then refresh the skin. This works even if you want the skin to be 1000px. You can pretty much put any size you want and the skin won't 'break' unless you go under 100px.


Everything is made from scratch except for the dots, they were taken from a screenshot of a Mac OS, I then added lighting and 'pressing' effects to make the buttons.


Like it or hate it i don't really mind

Cheers Wreck

As a first skin try to make something personal, something you would use everyday.

My first skin sucks but i still use it and I'll never upload it here on DA it's just too horrible!

cool if your having any problems check out my volume bar in my TaskbarBars skin here [link]

Though it might be hard to read there's a lot of stuff in there and i didn't make it easy to read

or you can check out [link] on the rainmeter website it will give you the basic code for a volume bar

There is a plugin currently being developed by Poiru but its not finalized yet. The plugin will give the ability for a single skin to control WMP Winamp iTunes and a couple more till then you're stuck with iTunes

This is the forum where they are talking about it [link]
