Bored of the same old plain look of your VLC media player? Want to give it some exciting new looks? Well did you know that VLC supports highly customizable skins through the skins2 interface.
Here’s how you enable the skin mode on this awesome media player:
Preferences->Interfaces->Main Interface.
Now click on the drop-down menu titlted “Interface Module” and change the setting from “Default” to “Skinnable Interface”
Now click “Save” and restart the player and Voila!!!
Not just this, VLC supports all Winamp2 and XMMS skins.
