The Winamp Skin Museum is powered by a sqlite3 database containing 1.2gb of metadata about 86,000 Winamp skins.

It's all exposed in this explorable GraphQL endpoint

https://api.webamp.org/graphql

A bit about the data...🧵

Replying to

It includes:

* Original filenames and md5 hashes of each skins * Names/metadata of all files compressed WITHIN the skins (file size, date, filename) * Text content of all text files found within the skins ...

* URL/likes/retweets if the skin was share by (or on Instagram) * Full metadata/info about each skin's

page * Info about manual reviews (good to tweet? NSFW?) * URLs to download skin files or screenshots

...

Kind fun data to comb though (if you're like me).

If anyone is interested in getting the raw DB to play with, or has ideas for extra stuff to expose in the graph, get in touch.

(more weird stuff found in Winamp skins)

Found a Winamp skin which would not parse correctly. Turns out that instead of image files, it just contained a .pdf form to rent an inflatable bowling pin mascot costume.

Rental includes (1) "Kool" tube!
