WinAmp transparency?

September 27, 2005 9:01:39 PM from WinCustomize ForumsWinCustomize Forums
Recently I have noticed a lot of WinAmps in the SS that are transparent even though it is not in the skins properties. Could someone tell me how this is done? I've looked in other posts but cannot find anything directly related to WinAmp.

Thanks

Winamp 3x and 5x support .tga files which allowes good transparency. Version 2x only accepts 'magic' pink for the transparency.

Nope...WA 2x uses a region co-ordinates list to tell the proggy what not to draw.

If you use magic pink in your skin you will just have a magic pink skin...

I use Glass2k to make the classic winamps transparent, you have to be careful switching back to modern skins with Glass2k loaded, causes winamp to lock up
