how do you create Win Media skins

YOu dont need any special software to make them. All you need is a text editor and an image editor. I use Paint and Notepad for the most part. If you hunt around on the Microsoft website you can find a downloadable Software Developement kit. It has all the code samples and stuff that you need to get started. I'll try to find a link but you should be able to find it if you look around on the site. Good luck! And if you need any more help you can email me at [email protected]

There's no special software to make skins. You make the graphics in a grapics program like Photoshop or Paint Shop Pro or the Gimp

Then you code the skin with an regular text editor. Besides the graphcis, a WMP skin consists of an XML file and a JScript (Javascript) file.

You can find information on WMP skinning on the Miscrosoft link below. Plus you can download the WMP SDK from the link which has examples
