Using phrases in search string:
If you want to search for an exact phrase made up of several words, put the phrase in quotes.
Example: "Star Wars" or "Britney Spears"
Using wildcards in search string:
By using a question mark (?) or an asterisk (*) within a search query, you can search for multiple forms of the query.
Example 1: enter s?ck to search for skins containing the words "sick", "sock", "suck" and so on.
Example 2: enter chris* to search for skins containing the words "chris", "christmas", "christopher" and so on.
Including or excluding queries in search string:
To make sure that a query is always included in your search, place a plus sign (+) immediately before the query in your search. To make sure that a partial query is excluded from your search, place a minus sign (-) immediately before the partial query in your search.
Example: To search for Christmas related skins including the word "Santa" but not "candy canes", try searching for +christmas +santa -"candy canes"
Using commands in search string:
Unless you are a member of 1001winampskins.com and set up your own custom default settings, the search routine will display the results as textual listings by default. You can overide the default settings by adding the following commands directly to your search query:
/table to display the search results in a table
/full to display the search results with full details and previews
/list to display the search results as textual listings (default)
Here is an example:
The query /full simpsons will search for skins containing the word "simpsons" and displaying the results in full mode.
