Skins Description:
WMP skins offer a fun, versatile alternative way to access your music, pictures, and videos
on Windows Media Player. They are a smaller and more compact version of the program which you can keep
open on your desktop while you work or surf the web. Drag it off to one side of your screen to hide it,
or just minimize it to your toolbar.
____________________________________________________________
Installation:
Just download the .wmz file (I save it to my desktop) then copy and paste or
drag it into your... C:\Program Files\Windows Media Player\Skins.... folder.
(On my computer I use the path...C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Media Player\Skins )
Once you have it in your skins folder,
just double click it to open.
(You can also access WMP skins by going to the "view" menu in Windows Media Player and selecting "skin chooser".
Then highlight the skin and click on "apply skin".
Sometimes this method does'nt work... which is why I usually just double click the file from insided the "skins" folder.)
Once your in "skin mode"..."Ctrl+1" and "Ctrl+2" will cycle back and forth between full and skin mode.
