Designing Process
First of all you have to design your skin in a graphics program like Photoshop or GIMP.
In the designing process you should think of the following components:
- A main window containing:
- a play/pause button
- a next and a previous button
- a faster and a slower button
- a stop button
- a time slider
- a volume slider
- a mute button
- text information about the current playback
- other buttons with specific functions like shuffle,repeat or making other windows and dialogs visible
- A playlist window. Either integrate this into the main window or create a separate window for it. The playlist window should contain:
- a button to add and a button to remove items from the playlist
- a button to export and to import playlist files
- a button to sort the playlist alphabetically
- An equalizer window. This might also be included into the main window or elsewhere. This window should contain:
- A slider to control the preamplification
- 10 sliders to control the different bands (60Hz, 170Hz, 310Hz, 600Hz, 1kHz, 3kHz, 6kHz, 12kHz, 14kHz, 16kHz)
- A button to turn the equalizer on/off
