As in a square (240x240) resolution? Yes, there's a square version as well. Most Pocket PCs are QVGA or VGA though. What device do you have?

No, it's a Pocket PC-only skin. A Smartphone Thoughts WMP10 skin (for Smartphones) may appear in the future though.

What Pocket PC do you have? The skin is designed to work fine on all existing Windows Media Player 10 Mobile-equipped Pocket PCs, and there is also square screen support if you happen to own the hw6515.

For interest's sake, these are the resolutions it supports:
QVGA: 240x320, 320x240, 240x240
VGA: 480x640, 640x480, 480x480

Yeah, it was me. Sorry if anyone got confused about where this came from. I guess I didn't really state it in my original post.
Wow good job. You should market that skill.

I was about to go on some long diatribe about this being and example of why people should stop looking down on people who constantly upgrade. Something about how when you don't upgrade your options slowly dwindle pertaining to new software and the like. And maybe a little about how it will only be worse when WM5.0 is out.

Then I read somewhere the device that I'm currently using has WMedia 10. So I looked, and sure enough it does. ops:

But I still haven't lost touch with my brothers and sisters left behind. :wink:

That unit has a QVGA screen. You won't find Pocket PCs in the consumer market which offer a resolution outside of the default QVGA 240x320, 320x240, 240x240, or VGA 480x640, 640x480, 480x480 range.

If you're looking for the compatible version of the skin, you will want to download the QVGA version. Instructions for installation are detailed in the Downloads forum. Hope that helps.

:lol: Well, skinning WMP on the Smartphone is a whole different ball or wax. At least it was with WMP9. Haven't really looked into thing with 10.

I used the word, may, just to keep you all on the edge. :lol:

Difficulty-wise, it's not a problem, and I'm pretty sure you'll get a skin sometime soon-ish.
