Winamp Gadget

Winamp Gadget v1.0I was bored this evening so I decided to try writing myself a Vista gadget. Using Winamp Control Center (by Owen Rudge) I created a gadget that controls Winamp. It is really simple for now and only has play, next song, previous song functionality, but I plan to work on it some more so lets call this version 1.0.

Anyway if you want to try it out you can download it here.

The only prerequisite is that you need Winamp installed in the default Winamp directory for now.

    Agreed…mine is somewhat dated now, given that it was written over two years ago. I am not actively developing it.
