EDIT: we now have the toolbars on our wiki https://sourceforge.net/apps/trac/mp...Toolbar_images

Hello everyone,

Starting from nightly build r1706 we now support skinning of the toolbar buttons.

play, pause, etc...

mpc-hc.exe will look inside the directory you placed it in for "toolbar.bmp" if found it will use that instead of the internal icons.

A short how to:
First select the height you want your icons to have (between 1 and 32 pixels)
Then multiply that height by 15 to determine the total width
Each icon itself is as wide as it is high

bitdepth can be <= 24, in which case RGB(255, 0, 255) is considered transparent or of bitdepth 32, in which case the alpha channel is used for transparency / gradients
Compression is NOT supported

Sample regular size toolbar.bmp:

Sample giant size toolbar.bmp:

Here is another example by one of the mpc-hc users:

You can edit these samples to create your own skin, or design them from scratch following the above guidelines.

Please share your creations with the others on the forum.
