apart from the official reissues of halfwayaroundthesun and the full circle, i recently updated the installers of some other old packs.
-the full circle nov 11, 2001 (classic installer /w intro)
-the missing suitcase may 06, 2002
-thirteen jun 02, 2002
-full circle remixes jul 02, 2002 (classic installer /w intro)
-Heimcomputer jul 02, 2002
-hybrids 720° oct 21, 2002
-God Jul IKEA dec 12, 2002
-remixes jan 02, 2003
i tried to preserve the look of the original installers as good as possible, but all of them use the latest and greatest pimpbot. in the next days and weeks, i might update some more of them packs, but the priority has clearly been on these big ones.

Join us on Discord
So, it's been a while since I last posted here and I don't even know if anyone of my old friends and followers will even get the chance to read this post. I don't plan to go into the details of the last 10+ years. Life just happened, as they say. However, for a couple of months some old AVS people have been hanging out in various chats and we have now found a new home on Discord. As you might have heard – there has been a bit of buzz – Jordan Eldredge's has reimplemented Winamp 2 in JavaScript. This project is know as Webamp, and includes a collaboration with the Internet Archive. Together the two also host the Winamp Skin Museum. Through all this, we got into touch with Jordan and have our own #avs channel on Discord. We primarily talk about the development of a new AVS version by @grandchild, but also about other, related projects such as now-abandoned Webvs. Either way, if you're interested or think you can contribute to one of these projects, feel invited to join us
The new VISBOT website
Alright, so here we are in late 2013. About ten years ago visbot (https://www.deviantart.com/visbot) was founded, and if my memory serves me well, the first release came out in February or March 2003. We had a bunch of shabby websites from early on, some revisions can still be viewed on Wayback Machine. Throughout the years, the layout changed a couple of times and so did the backend. But for a group of people busy in the visual field, our website had all been remarkably text-based. Sure, we had screenshots here on DevianArt, or on Customize, Winamp and some other sites that are long gone. It was possibly difficult for outsiders to get an idea of our craft, but that is abo
Good news for AVS artists
As a follow-up to the provocatively titled End of AVS, here are some good news. Thanks to Moonbeam13 (https://www.deviantart.com/moonbeam13) and the deviantart developers, it is now possible to upload .pimp files to the visualization galleries. This is probably the best results for both sides: AVS artists can still distribute an installable format while DeviantArt does not have to worry about corrupted executables.
Now, what does this mean for AVS artists? You might not have known, but for several years, PimpBot has produced two files:
1. an installer for distribution (.exe)
2. a project file (.pimp)
These project files contain all the data for the installer and can be loa
