It should be there now, I misplaced the file on the web server.
I just checked and it should be ok now.

I have yet to see a skip, but I haven't really been overtaxing the machine
here.  I've got winamp at home, now that thing skips like a schoolgirl ;-)
There might be a knob for buffering, or now that I'm thinking about it,
there's a 32k buffer allocated in mpg123.c, maybe that could be bumped.

What I've seen is that if you unzip the skins, it'll re-use that one
next time you start.  The skin is saved in ~/.x11amp/config; if you
use a zipped skin it shows up something like /var/tmp/XXX.  But If you
unzip the skin in your ~/.x11amp/Skins/ dir, it'll point to that.

Anyway if you find a skin you like, unzip it in your Skins dir and it'll
be persistant.
