    Basically, my problem is that in Flip3d, Alt+Tab or live thumbnails, Winamp looks like a the mangled remains of a collision between a pile of cow manure and a week-old roadkill. :p :D

    I did some Google searching, and came up with one solution, but I couldn't get it to work as I didn't understand it. It involved putting the skin you wanted to show up in the Classic theme folder, but it just changed my skin, but not the thumbnails...

    :confused: :confused: :confused:

    Anyways, I know a lot of people here use Winamp + Vista, so I want to know if everyone here has that problem, or if I'm overlooking something obvious. :eek:

    TIA, pixelot.

    Oh don't worry I have this problem too. That ugly ass classic skin is hiding my beautiful skin.

    if u see.... even Gaming gets affected by Aero Theme.. going to Vista basic theme does help.

    Hence, many Programs like VLC automatically change the theme to Vista Basic. to prevent this conflict.



    btw I use Vista NO Aero + WinAmp...
