Some Winamp Modern Skins not working. Please help

5 posts · originally from https://geek.digit.in/community/threads/some-winamp-modern-skins-not-working-please-help.9619/

I have WinAmp 5.07 on Windows 98SE.

The problem is that some of the modern skins don't work. As soon as I switch over to it, I get the classic skin

However, some other ones work

Can anyone point out the problem please?

I have noticed that the ones that don't work are too small in size. One of them was only 9kb!! So they are not getting downloaded properly. :cry:

I tried downloading with Firefox and IE after clearing cache/temporary internet files. But still it doesn't work.

yup....

one more vote....

One skin that wasn't working earlier started working after I downloaded it from a different source. So the problem seems to be in downloading.

What can I do about it?
