WSH Panel Mod official page with download link.įoobar2000 comes with a default interface (DUI) that is easy to customize but very limited.

Otherwise, you can decide to use Photoshop or Gimp or any other program to create images that you'll assemble using Panel Stack Splitter.

If you're good at coding and you're not too ambitious, you can stick with foobar2000's code to create graphic elements.

I mostly use portable installation instead of normal installation, for it's easier to install skins into and you can multiply your foobar2000s as much as you need, knowing that there will be no conflict of any sort (no need to update anything or to have two skins aside).

HOW TO INSTALL COLUMNS UI FOOBAR2000 SKIN

Beware the updating of components, which can disable a part of or the entire skin however it doesn't happen a lot 'cause AFAIK no component is currently under development.

That being said, if you've checked the components and their version and there's no conflict, you sure can install several skins on a single foobar2000.

I personnally recommend to install skins in fresh foobar2000 installations to avoid compatibility issues between different versions of a component (WSH Panel Mod in particular).

Backup your files if you're not sure of what you're doing export or copy your working scripts when you're about to take risks.

Avoid installing old skins on current foobar versions and vice versa.

When installing a skin, check the version of foobar it's been designed for.

Always keep your components up-to-date, unless it may cause compatibility issues.

I invite you to try and see by yourself, to keep in mind that errors come all along and to share any advice, question, difficulty or anything you want to say, may you be new or expert. I'm not an expert on the subject, I've started by installing a few skins and trying to understand how that worked I still think it's the best way to get a good handle on it, though a long and sometimes frustrating way. I've been asked to write a tutorial on skinning foobar2000, because many f2k users encounter difficulties modifying skins or simply using them.
