They look absolutely horrible and 'hey look, i just got photoshop' amateur hour when done the way you are doing them.

Also, your buttons or icons on the player are just too stretched out. They look cheesy. I made a little graphic that I think illustrates my point.

I can't help myself with gradients, I start out making them subtle and then, well....

The buttons stretch because the original player size was 320x240 and I made it
bigger without making all the buttons bigger.

I'll try to change that in the next skin.
