New Audacious How Do I Change My Skin?

[tuxtorch]

Anyone know how to change the default skin in Audacious 2.3? I've been looking everywhere!

[p^h]

This is the way I've done this - first open Synaptic and install  'audacious-skins' ,and 'audacious-themes-pack' (if you want Winamp skins).  Then, open Audacious, click on the upper left corner of the player, and select 'preferences'.  In the left column there are icons for the various options.  Click on 'skinned interface', and a skin selection box will open, showing the available skins.  Pick one and you're done    I like the WinampMP11 skin, btw.  Good luck!

Open your File Manager "Dolphin" press CTRL + L  so it becomes an editable location.
paste this into it: /home/$LOGNAME/.local/share/audacious/Skins/ and hit enter.

Download the winamp2 skin usually it's a .wsz extension and place it in here.

Open Audacious and right click it's title bar, then click preferences on left side "Skinned Interface"
you'll notice the skin you downloaded will be in the list on the right.

Dang it, I knew I should have made audacious-skins a requirement of the audacious RPM!
