Baldahin: There's a few things you could try. You could pick a different skin for the winamp controller from the TLB website. There are a bunch available, and maybe one would work for you.
If you find a skin you like, but it's too big to fit on your taskbar, you can put it inside a menu (see topic here), or you can make the icons of your TLB bigger, which makes the whole taskbar bigger. To do this, right click on an icon on TLB, then select Appearance, then Large icons. This will make the TLB icons 32x32. For other sizes (i.e. 24x24, 48x48, or whatever you want), you need to add them to the TLB metrics. To do this, open up your TLB Settings menu (Right click on any icon -> TLB Settings...) and click the Metrics tab. Towards the bottom, you'll see a section labeled Additional Icon Sizes. (I'm too lazy to do a screen shot, and I don't think this is complicated enough for one
) Click the button that says New, then enter in the icon size you want. After you Apply, the new choice should be available under Appearances.
But, if you're like me, you want maximum functionality in minimum space. Meaning you want a winamp control with a display you can read at all times without having to enlarge your taskbar. If that's the case, your only other option, as far as I can tell, is making your own skin. I haven't been able to find any sort of guide for doing this, so I guess I'll just have to write my own. I'll make it a new topic under General Discussion, so watch for it.
