The default media player can be skinned to use a number of ready made skins or skins created by with Wimpy Skin Machine.

Skins can be added in a few quick steps:

Find or Create a Skin

The wimpy website has a number of options for skins: http://www.wimpyplayer.com/skins/browse_mp3.html

If you would like to create your own custom skin you can use the Wimpy Skin Machine: http://www.wimpyplayer.com/docs/mp3/index.php?m=skin&p=skin_machine.html

Make sure that the skin created references the background image with a relative link.

imageURL="skin_bkgd.jpg"

Not

imageURL="http://example.com/skin_bkgd.jpg"

Upload Your Skin

Upload the files for you skin to your server. Then create a file named "crossdomain.xml" and upload it to the root directory of your website. Inside the file inclue the following text:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<cross-domain-policy>
   <allow-access-from domain="my.ekklesia360.com" />
</cross-domain-policy>

Call the Skin

When you call the media player from the API simply add the needed parameters to the tag. You will need to know the width and height for the skin first.

Example:

__audioplayer skin='http://example.com/skins/your_skin.xml' width='400' height='245'__
