Firstly, nice post. But isn't this another way of viewing Winamp very much like Windowshade mode? :blink:

This is a great little program. I used it all the time when I had winamp2 (despite my friends telling me just to make WA always on top and then in 'bar' mode). However with arrival of winamp5 it has lost its use for me. Winamp5 has the Nullsoft Tray Control now, which does the same basic job as this does (does ne1 actually use more than play/pause, last and next?)

I like the Milkdrop winamp 5 visualization.

I like to use winamp 5 skins that have a separate search window for artist biography and album info and cover art.

And of course, tweaking software is fun. (^:
