Galleria_Classic_Flickr
This is a Track info template for Playing Now / Display View of JRiver Media Center 20.
It's a Galleria-Slideshow with a Flickr-Search for Artist-photos.
It uses the free part of "Galleria", which is built on top of the jQuery JavaScript framework.
Galleria Copyright (c) 2013 Aino http://aino.se

You can find more infos here:
http://galleria.io/
http://galleria.io/download/
http://galleria.io/docs/

1. For use with JRiver Media Center 20 for Windows unzip the files to:
   c:\Program Files (x86)\J River\Media Center 20\Visualizations\Track Info\
   (you will be asked for admin rights)
2. Play your (audio)-files in MC
3. Navigate to Player->Playing Now->Show Playing Now
4. Right click on the Playing Now-Window ->Track Info->Galleria Classic Flickr
5. You can detach the display with right click->Detach Display (useful with 2 monitors, one showing the fullscreen slideshow)

Perhaps someone has ideas how to add artistart-images of the JRiver MC library (MCWS?) or to do a better search with less obscure results (Picasa, Google?).

Cool!  It started working once I switched the default MC browser engine to Chromium. It complained about 'quirks mode' under IE. Yes, it would be fun to be able to fine tune the image sources and themes. Maybe I'll get a burst of post-holiday ambition and take a look under the hood.
Thanks for posting it!

I didn't had to change to Chromium, I am using Internet Explorer as engine (this is updated to IE11.0.9600.17501).
So this 'quirks mode' could be an issue of your IE-version?

In the meantime I changed the Galleria theme to 'Fullscreen' (which is responsive to window-resizing).
(This http://galleria.io/themes/fullscreen/ theme is not free, so I can't share it, sorry. No, I am not associated with Aino/Galleria  :))
