CD Art Display 2 released

amakrits CAD

*Bobbyperux and I have collaborated on this CD Art Display skin.
it's minimalistic, it's animated and it's awesome.

RooLa Dock

RooLa Dock is currently ranked 2nd in the category of "most popular deviations in ObjectDock ever submitted".

thank you all so much for that!!!

CD Art Display

CD Art Display is a free desktop program that shows the current song cover in a skinnable display.

or in other words, ...an app to actually 'WATCH' your music playing.

ThaWall-DLX

Daily Deviation, 2008-06-12

Daily Deviation ThaWall-DLX by =OtisBee ...Imagine you're having a party and you want to offer something a little different for playing music. This skin does just that. The interface spans your entire screen with one of many cool wallpapers, displays the album cover and information of the song playing, as well as giving you the usual interface controls. Anyone can enjoy using this "jukebox" style skin. (Featured by ^mrrste)

A winning Shot

as promised...


...here's the winner of my 33.333 pageview capture contest! [link] :excited:




:iconpsyrix:



...while browsing this deviant's gallery it often comes to notice that most of his works have been created (as the artist claims for himself) "out of pure boredom" :giggle: and i can tell you, the wallpapers he created during these periods of particular and personal distress -which i'm sure we all know so well- are definitely worth a closer look.



so, check out ~psyrix' gallery and make sure to give him the proper :+fav:s and :+favlove: he deserves.

hi, i'm OtisBee...


...and apart from the occasional wallpaper and dock skin i mostly do skins for an app called CD Art Display 2.0 (aka CAD2.0)


...it has always been both my pleasure and purpose to create skins that show certain capabilities, features or functionalities of CAD and then combine that with a touch of my own style.


...also i'm an admin of the cdartdisplay.com forum.
so, whenever you feel like it and whenever you'd like to get some more input, info, talk or help on CAD, just consider yourself as being friendly invited.

Devious Info

  • Personal Quote: i am schizophrenic. ...and so am i.

ThaFeed

Pimp my Skin..

..if you ever feel like you've done everything you could to setup your CAD skin, but still have a slight impression that something still can be done although you just don't have a clue of what that might be, then this forum thread could be the place for you to post your skin and either =barberioX or I will excessively scrutinize that skin's skin.ini file in order to see if there's anything that can still be pimped.

i hope that this service comes in handy for you in any way and besides, that you make use of it. it's completely free and we won't even take credits for our efforts.

:eager: so, keep them skins coming. :D

Thanks man, glad you liked it. The pleasure was all mine.
cool. :lol:

btw.... i saw that in the past you've been using my ThaPorthole skin quite often.
now, since you seem to be a real fan and long term user of that skin i wonder what your opinion might be on this skin's recent update [link] .
did you like it?
or did you like the previous version better?

I didn't get anything.
Was it freshlyill24@yahoo.com?


thanks! :D
yes it was! :nod:
maybe my message got intercepted by a spam filter? :confused:

anyways, ...here's what i wrote:

"...hi!

..please make sure to install (copy/paste) a skin in a pattern of:

C:\...\CD Art Display\Skins\ThaUpright
and NOT
C:\...\CD Art Display\Skins\ThaUpright\ThaUpright

besides, ..whenever you'd find a "cskin" filetype in a downloaded resp. extracted archive, make sure to doubleclick on such a file as this will automatically install an according skin to the appropriate folder so that "copy/paste" isn't necessary anymore.

i hope that was helpful. ;)
please check the cdartdisplay.com forum in case of further issues.

best regards....


....OtisBee"
