PC owners using Windows Media Player as the primary program for playing music, videos and viewing photos have the ability to personalize the program's appearance to fit their personal taste. Windows Media Player supports downloadable skins to modify the appearance of the media program, with free options created by various sites available for download from the Microsoft Windows Media resource website. Media Player skins offered for download include selections based on popular games and movies, in addition to original designs.
Instructions
1. Visit the Windows Media Player Skins website. Browse the available skins, sorted alphabetically.
2. Click "Download" next to the skin you wish to download for your Windows Media Player. Click "Open" when the file download window opens. Once the file finishes downloading, Windows Media Player will open and display a message asking you to confirm that you wish to download and open the file with Media Player. Click "Yes" and the skin will be automatically installed into your Media Player. Click "Close" on the file download window to complete the installation.
3. Click "View" from the option bar at the top of the Windows Media Player display. Click "Skin Chooser" from the options listed. The new skin will be displayed in the list of skins on the left-hand side of the screen. Click on the skin to preview it in the Media Player window, then click "Apply Skin" to finalize the choice and apply the change to your Media Player. In order to revert the player back to the full-view mode, click the icon displayed on the skin that says "Enlarge" or "Return to Full Mode."
