!! CD ART DISPLAY 2.0 SKIN !!
in the process of creating a new skin i often come to a point where i want to add more and more things to a skin. that's when i remind myself to an often quoted motto. as a matter of fact it even became part of my philosophy. Less Is MOre this skin is supposed to be a tribute to this motto. for further information about the skin and some versions compatible with CD Art Display prior to CAD2.0 check out the initial skin release topic: [link] cdartdisplay.com: [link] CAD forum: [link] Comments
thx!
to list all changes or new features in CAD2.0 would break up this reply. ...but check out this topic if you like ---> [link] Ditto.
I put the "limo" folder in my Winamp/Skins directory and it comes up in Winamp in the skins listing, but when I select it, I get the old, gray, boxy looking skin (same as Winamp Classic). -- The less a man makes declarative statements, the less apt he is to look foolish in retrospect. macthemes.net poll - [link] I figured it out.
Go here and download and install - [link] Put the "limo" folder in your C:\Program Files\CD Art Display\Skins folder. Open CD Art Display, go to skins, choose "limo". Play a song. -- The less a man makes declarative statements, the less apt he is to look foolish in retrospect. macthemes.net poll - [link] Like 50 choices and the one I want isn't there...
I just want the front cover with the info display beside in the "blank" style. The only ones that have the info next to it are the ones with the clear box next to it. -- The less a man makes declarative statements, the less apt he is to look foolish in retrospect. macthemes.net poll - [link] well, well, well...
i thought it was all self-explanatory, but apparently it wasn't. as i've written this is a CD Art Display 2.0 skin. no winamp, no iTunes, no WMP no whatever. however CD Art Display is a frontend application that can be used together with all the players mentioned above (and quite a few more) to nicely show the cover art of the currently played song. i've linked to CD Art Display in the release notes in order to get some more info about CD Art Display. now, if you take a close look at the screenshot you'll notice that there's a hotspot configured to show/hide all the additional elements (i.e. text, ratings and progressbar). so when your mouse-pointer enters the area at the top of the cover, it will change itself into a hand cursor. make a click there and you'll be shown all the missing elements. you can switch off the hotspot in the Skin Editor if you like. the "clear box" as you call it, is the case for a back-cover or any picture CAD will find in the current song folder. you can assign certain search patterns in CAD's options to explicitly point to a folder. please note, that this is a skin for CD Art Display 2.0. if you're running CD Art Display 1.0 not all features of this skin will be supported. as written in the release notes, check out the skin's forum topic to find the according and compatible skin version. i hope there will be a day when CD Art Display skins will no longer be forced to share a gallery with winamp skins, but would get its own gallery instead. the days when CAD would work with winamp only were long gone and iTunes, WMP, foobar, qmp and so on users would finally be able to discover some cool skins for an amazing application. besides there would be no more questions on how to install a CD Art Display skin in winamp. not your fault sgraves. thx for your patience ....OtisBee |
