Randomly change Winamp skins

October 31st, 2007 - 05:13 am ET by D. T.

If you have numerous winamp skins and want to change between them then there is a way that they can be randomly selected. You many not know it, but the program has an option that allows you to randomly change the look with each track.

Firstly open the program by clicking on the start button or the icon on the desktop. You will then need to select “Options” and “Preferences”. You can also perform this operation by pressing the [CTRL + P] key combination.

In the new window that is opened, select the “Skins” option from the left hand menu. You will find an option titles “Random skin”. You should check this option to select the skins randomly, or uncheck it if you no longer want this option.

Winamp integrates 4 skins by default, but this doesn’t prevent you from downloading others and copying them into the “Skins” folder. You will find this folder in the programs installation folder, which is located under “Program Files”.
