Winamp is one of the most popular media players available for Windows. It's also one of the oldest ones. From my personal experience, it is one of the most versatile and feature-rich media players, has an enormous variety of plugins and skins available and is stable enough for every day use.

Winamp still has plenty of users. Many people continue to create nice skins for this classic media player.  One of them is PeterK, who is the author of the popular Quinto Black CT skin. Quinto Black CT v2.3  comes with the following change log:

- added: Playlist Editor2 feature
- added: shadows to Main Player, Equalizer, VU Meter (analog & digital), Frequency Response Graph, Spectrum Analyzer
- added: CD case in real size
- added: A-B Repeat feature
- added: windows are now resizable: left, bottom left, bottom, bottom right, right
- changed: too long file names get "..." at the end in Track Bookmarks and Playlist Editor2
- changed: background color of selected track in Playlist Editor (from black to dark red)
- changed: made standard frame four pixel wider - more space for component name and caption buttons
- changed: AlbumArt has now NoFrame background instead of standard frame
- changed: standard button color from dark gray to dark blue
- changed: frame color in NoFrame is dark blue not black anymore

Important notes:

1) In order to see shadows you have to check "Enable Desktop Alpha Blending" in the Skin => Modern Skins => General tab of the Preferences.
2) You can easily scale the CD case using Scaling option from the main context menu if it is too big for you.
3) It is not possible to change the font size in those edit boxes in Playlist Editor 2 where you enter track numbers.
4) It might happen that there is a dark gray rectangle on the Playlist Editor2 window. The author is convinced that this glitch has to do with those <edit boxes> in which we enter digits. As soon as you move your mouse pointer it will disappear. The author has made a post about it, so let us hope this will be done in Winamp's coming update version.
5) Please remember to use ENTER on your keyboard instead of TAB after typing a digit in the Playlist Editor2 feature.
