where do you guys get your album covers from, i want to get them so they look like the cd's in the picture?

#224848

hmm i dont understand why when i pick this as my skin for avetunes it just says itunes with no album artwork or anything sigh....

#224851

I actually get almost all of my CD covers from either the IRC network that I browse on, or at Amazon.com.

This is exactly what i was looking for...thank you! :D

@nkj - Awesome skin!!! Got a question - how do I switch libraries? I've tried right-clicking the desklet and selecting the library from the menu, but then I get asked if I really want to duplicate the desklet. Am I doing something wrong?

@Maynard - I use TheGodFather to find my album art. It'll search Amazon and other sites.

I have 1 quick question about this skin. I was wondering where and how to change the font color for the Artist/Album/Song test to a different color ?? I love this skin, but need to change the color.

Thanks for any help everyone !!

edit the ini file.

colours are RGB and A is alpha

#232076

edit the ini file.

colours are RGB and A is alpha

Could you be more specifc as to how we would enter the variables, I've tried a few things but nothing seems to work. (and yes I have saved the ini and re-loaded the skin.)

[ExtraInfo-1]

FaceName=Lucida Grande

size=11

left=16

top=155

width=250

height=20

type=name

HAlignment=0

Style=0

#239620

Add in the following properties:

ColorA=xxx

ColorR=xxx

ColorB=xxx

ColorG=xxx

A is the alpha (transparency) value

RGB = Red, Green, Blue

Many thanks Sketching didn't know you had to add colour before the values!

My next problem is when I double click for the controls it reverts the text back to black, click again and its back to my new colour...

...where do I edit those variables?

#239661

u will need to change the colors in the other skin file to the one it switches too it should have the '2' suffix to it

#239668

the link is dead... dear me... :slant:

#243285

the link is dead... dear me... :slant:
Hmmm.. it seems to be working for me...

Try "save as.." or dragging the link ro the tab bar...

btw @nkj, thanks for the skin and great skin.. :)

#243297

I could finally download it... apparently, it was my connection in Turkey that was messed up for some reason. sorry for the post, but i gotta say- i love this skin! Thanks @nkj.

#243899

Am I the only one having the 'flash of unalbumarted case' when you click to view the controls, or mouse over?

A fix would be nice, as this skin is real nice, now that I use album art.

#244045

I have that flicker issue as well. would be nice if it was fixed, if @nkj has the time for it. thanks again for the skin!

#244236

#244243

#244270

Could a mod let me edit the first post . i can;t seem to edit it.

#244274

#244313

#244316

Hi nkj!

Thanks for the update! It fixed my problem with flickering. Lovely! :)

But..

I still have one problem with your skin. See here:

cdcover-error.jpg

Long track names, and long album names doesn't work.

As you can see, if an Mp3 has a long track name, it will interfer with the artist name.

is there some way that you can fix that too?

Thanks alot for a great skin.. and keep up the good work.

Best regards

#244334

I am not sure how to fix that . it will only happen with long names so i guess if u want u could edit the ini file and icrease the width of the info display part.
