And actually looking at the numbers ...

in the collection:

the number of .wsz skins compat. with xmms-audacious-oscp-winamp2 (and backward compat. with winamp5 ... ) is 2057 (there seems to be a duplication of some.. so the initial number is 2935 .wsz skins...after the redundancy is taken out it loses almost 900 dupes.)

the number of .wal skins compat. (for now only ) with winamp5 is 871 (as well there seems to be some redundancy considering the original number of .wal skins was 1216...meaning that there were some 455 dupes.)

The winamp5 .wal skins were unique in their structural variance from the typical block look stylized in .wsz skins.
so the big question is...even though .wal skin offers something really different in visual approach...
Is it worth the work to make .wal compatible for only 871 potential structurally varied (albeit beautiful) skin options?
