Here is an official Microsoft skin for Windows Media Player. Its called "Brilliant Black". Actually this skin is a part of Microsoft Touch Pack for UMPC OEM (Ultra Mobile Personal Computer, Codenamed Origami).
Our friend, a regular AskVG reader and porting expert "Amirz" got a chance to extract this skin and now you can use it in almost all Windows Media Player versions.
It works in Windows XP and Vista and Windows 7 too. You can use it in WMP 9 and higher versions.
Just download the ZIP file, extract it and double click on "Brilliant Black.wmz" file. It'll automatically install and apply the skin.

Wait, maybe not, but it tried to download a .pdf and Windows Live OneCare found a virus in that, but the file is fine. If it tries to download a .pdf, don't do it.

Is it possible to uninstall or disable this skin after its installed?
VG
^^ Sure. You can change the skin from "View -> Skin Chooser" or by clicking on the 5th icon in "Brilliant Black" skin titlebar.

The skin is not meant to be used on a PC. It is made for a Touch Screen device hence it looks like this with big buttons which can be pushed by a finger to stylus.
