For those of you who are unfamiliar, “Winamp” is a rather popular media player program for PC (though versions for Mac and Linux do exist). One of the features that makes Winamp so favorable is its ability to be “skinned”. This means that you can drastically change the look and user-interface of the program to fit your fancy. There are so many skins available, in fact, that even within the realm of Steampunk, there’s a skin to match your specific taste!

First off, the one shown above. Known as Unison Brainstormed, it embodies the elegantly industrial look that I personally favor. It also has fun little features like the gauges on the equalizer that rotate along with the sliders :)

Eight more after the jump…

Next up is “Fortesque“, which is similar, but with a considerably darker feel to it.

Perhaps you like a bit more magic and mystery in your Steampunk? Try the Myst-inspired, Datamancer-esque “Book of W’namp

If, on the the other hand, you prefer things a bit more subtle, I’d suggest “Bunker“. I think the designer was going for something closer to “dieselpunk”, but you really can’t go wrong with dingy metal and gauges!

The Fishtank” should satisfy those whose tastes run parallel to Capt. Nemo’s <>{

Naturally, you’d like this one if you’re a fan of the anime series “Trigun”.

Timepiece” is by far the most elegant, though possibly not the most user friendly…

If you can get past the corporate logos, there should be enough gleaming metal in “TCM” to satiate any Steampunk fan!

Finally, we have this. It’s still in the works, but the bits that are done are absolutely stunning. Let’s hope Mr. Axlar keeps up the good work!

I should also mention the installing these is a cinch. Simply download the file, and double-click it! Enjoy!
