If you use of any of the skins from this site, please show your appreciation and let the author know by sending him/her an email to say thanks.
1001winampskins.com also owes respect to numerous open source communities, who provide freely available professional software and without whom this website would not be up and running:

1001winampskins.com is running on FreeBSD, an advanced BSD UNIX operating system for the Intel compatible (x86), DEC Alpha, and PC-98 architectures, offering advanced networking, performance, security and compatibility features today which are still missing in other operating systems, even some of the best commercial ones.
 1001winampskins.com's pages and downloads are served through an Apache web server, which is a collaborative software development effort aimed at creating a robust, commercial-grade, featureful, and freely-available source code implementation of an HTTP (Web) server.
1001winampskins.com uses MySQL as an SQL database server to store and access it's data. MySQL is basically available for free and runs on numerous platforms.
 1001winampskins.com's dynamic content and database connectivity is handeled by PHP, a server-side, cross-plattform, HTML embedded scripting language.
Last, but not least, we would like to thank our advertising sponsors, who help cover the costs of running this free service. The server hardware and Internet connectivity are the only parts not free of charge and couldn't be afforded without our sponsors.
