## Overview

Winamp Skin visual system, translated from the Claude Artisan catalog for use in digital products. Brushed-metal or chrome-gradient panel chrome throughout; Tiny, pixel-precise controls (buttons, sliders, knobs)

- **Category:** niche
- **Era:** late-1990s/early-2000s
- **Origin:** Winamp's classic skin engine (1997 onward); a vast fan skinning economy produced thousands of brushed-metal and chrome hardware-panel skins through the early 2000s.
- **Reference:** Classic Winamp 2.x default skin; Winamp Skin Museum archive; Sonique-era hardware-panel skins.
- **Structural base:** superfície material com conteúdo em camadas

**Defining traits:**
- Brushed-metal or chrome-gradient panel chrome throughout
- Tiny, pixel-precise controls (buttons, sliders, knobs)
- Neon-green LED-style level meters/visualizer accents
- Dense, more-controls-than-space skeuomorphic hardware-panel layout

## Colors

- **bg** — #0c0d10
- **surface** — #26292e
- **surface-2** — #34383f
- **text** — #d8dde3

## Typography

- Display: 'Arial Narrow', 'Tahoma', sans-serif
- Body: 'Arial', 'Tahoma', sans-serif
- Mono: 'Fixedsys', 'Courier New', monospace

## Layout

- superfície material com conteúdo em camadas
- Use a responsive grid and preserve content hierarchy.
- Collapse columns below 768px without horizontal overflow.

## Elevation & Depth

- Brushed-metal or chrome-gradient panel chrome throughout; Tiny, pixel-precise controls (buttons, sliders, knobs); Neon-green LED-style level meters/visualizer accents; Dense, more-controls-than-space skeuomorphic hardware-panel layout; sombras e elevação; transparência e blur

## Shapes

- Radius scale: 2px, 3px, 6px.

## Components

- Buttons keep visible focus and predictable hover/pressed states.
- Cards use the surface and radius scale from the tokens.
- Forms expose persistent labels, textual errors, and keyboard focus.

## Do's and Don'ts

- Do: follow the tokens and the structural composition.
- Do: maintain WCAG AA contrast and `prefers-reduced-motion`.
- Avoid: using the style as decoration without functional hierarchy.
