IIRC, you need to have xadmaster installed to be able to open the file. Then you need to have the right data type installed to be able to open the picture file (most likely a bit map data type). Hope this helps.

 I´ve installed the bmp.datatype,but it still doesn´t work.
 Here´s the info i get from system:

 
 
      There's a problem, the following
      picture(s) couldn't be loaded:
      cbuttons: Dtype: No PicObject
      main: Dtype: No PicObject
      monoster: Dtype: No PicObject
      numbers: Dtype: No PicObject
      playpaus: Dtype: No PicObject
      posbar: Dtype: No PicObject
      shufrep: Dtype: No PicObject
      text: Dtype: No PicObject
      titlebar: Dtype: No PicObject
      volume: Dtype: No PicObject

      Please make sure that your
      datatypes are set up correctly
      and that your skin directory
      contains all the needed files.

Have you tried a differnt skin? It may be that that skin doent work with AmigaAMP or that the files in the skin are not in bit map format but jpeg or gif etc.

Well all I did to get skins (*.wsz files) downloaded from the WinAMP site to work was put them in the skins draw under the AmigaAMP draw, then install xadmaster and the relivent date type.

Has anyone else got any ideas?
