Shrug off Imperial laser flak as you begin your attack run on the Death Star, or get the navigation data from Artoo as you jump into hyperspace. With REBELAMP: X-WING, it's just like shooting womp-rats in Beggar's Canyon back home!
This skin is themed after the control panels and styling of the X-Wing fighter from Star Wars. If there's interest, I might do other spacecraft.

Excellent! very nice skin. i really like the details you put in the skin especially in the eq bar. yet i wish you would make your own cursors instead of the standard "cool" cursors and a miKroamp skin wouldnt hurt at all.
oh the only thing useless is the main window, is the font cause i cant tell from head to toe of the song thats being played.
i rate this skin A+ grade.

Jaxspider,
Thanks for the comments. I made custom cursors for my last skin, but it just takes so darn long to make the skin itself that I didn't feel like it. :) I know that's no excuse. As for Mikroamp, I don't use it and I suspect most other Winamp users don't either. I could be wrong.
For the main window, I used the Basic script used in the Star Wars universe. I think it suits the theme better, and one can always turn it off in the options (uncheck "use bitmap font").

Excellent! SWEEET!!!love the skin, love the R2, I agree with you on the text it just looks authentic, great work, any chance of a Tie-Fighter version, a Naboo N-1 starfighter version and possibly a Jedi starfighter version?

Excellent! WOW...really nice skin..great idea and really well made graphics and EQ's. Well detailed and complex. Fantastic job.

Excellent! I really like this skin, especially the wires. The level of detail is very good, normally found in the metal skins. So that makes a nice change. And i agree, i dont like Mikro Amp, infact i downloaded it and deleted it 5 minutes later cos i found it so annoying and useless. Lol.. But, as Jax said...The writing isnt just hard to read, its impossible lol, but as u say, either make ur own or turn of the text.bmp :)

Excellent! Great work with this skin. The only thing is the font, but that's no problem if you can read "farawayish"!!! Keep it up and skin the tie-fighter too!

Excellent! Excellent! A huge number of details and a very nice style!

Excellent! A++ WOW, great level of detail. About the whole text thing, it can't be read but it fits the overall feel and theme perfectly. If you want to know the song title just look on the playlist. The design of this skin is awesome and I wouldn't mind seeing the Tie-fighter myself.

Good! The skin looks great! Star Wars fans should be going nuts :) Too bad the play/pause buttons aren't animated and that you practically paid no attention to the window toggle buttons, which happen to be completely buggy. The pressed minibrowser buttons are buggy as well. May favorite part is how the wires cover part of the volume slider, nicely done. This skin could have been excellent if it weren't for the numerous bugs. Maybe you could fix them and I'll change my review ;)

Excellent! great! finally an excellent star wars skin! :D
Posted by Nini on Tuesday, May 21st, 2002 at 05:55 PM CEST
Good! It really has the star wars theme, but it's not that realistic.
Posted by Dave on Thursday, May 23rd, 2002 at 12:04 AM CEST
Mr. Bloch, you are a tough audience! I've fixed the Clutterbar bugs (actually a Winamp bug, btw) and what minimize/windowshade bugs I could. Unfortunately, Winamp doesn't have enough of the button states skinned. I also fixed the minibrowser buttons (whoops!). Thanks, everyone, for the interest, a TIE fighter will probably be next.

Excellent! One of the coolest skins I've ever seen!
Posted by skiw on Thursday, June 06th, 2002 at 09:39 AM CEST
Good! This really is a smooth looking skin - I`m just amazed that the controls are not animated!
Posted by Chaeo on Friday, June 07th, 2002 at 05:23 PM CEST
Excellent! wow ..... very cool skin.... man i like to see your next skin ... probably animate the buttons in the main window .... cos i really thought it would b4 i did dwld it

Excellent! YES. This is what we want.
Posted by trudian on Monday, July 01st, 2002 at 11:50 PM CEST
Excellent! A truly phenomenal skin. I am awed by the style and sweetness of it! If I had another opposable digit, I'd raise that one in salute to you as well, as it is, two thumbs up bro!

Good! a nice skin, but how do you know the interior of futuristic airplane looks like
Posted by doerak15 on Saturday, August 03rd, 2002 at 04:35 PM CEST
Good! The text in the modified alphabet was such a great idea (even if useless).
