We are going to share 2 skins with you: one for WMP11 in XP and other for WMP 11 in Vista. These skins can make the WMP 11 under XP and Vista to look like WMP12 of Windows 7.

You can download the required skins using following links:

All required instructions are mentioned in the downloaded ZIP files.

PS: If you are facing a wmploc.dll version number problem while opening WMP after installing this skin, then visit following tutorial to fix it:
