Want to show ur YM buddies what u r currently playing in ur Winamp or Windows Media Player?
[u]For Winamp Users:[/u]
[url=http://numedecod.ro/Yahoo_Messenger_NowPlaying/]Download this plugin.[/url] (for free of course)
This works on Yahoo Messenger 9, 8 and 7 and Winamp 5.x (i actually tested it on Msgr 9 and winamp 5.x -sorry cant specify the exact winamp coz winamp update their versions too often)
Steps:
1) Download the plugin.
2) Restart Winamp if you currently have it opened.
3) Ctrl P and scroll down to Plugins stems and click General Purpose
4) and double click Yahoo Messenger 9/8/7 Now Playing [V 4.5].dll
5) Then customise the format on what details of the song u wish to be displayed on ur YM Status.
***If you havent got winamp, download the player [url=http://www.winamp.com/]here[/url]
Good Luck
