Is there a skin out there that makes the JRiver software interface look like iTunes 9, if so can anyone please direct me to a download of it?
-
itunes.com?
-
whats so good about the itunes "interface"
??
-
doof did a skin a few years ago that looks like itunes colors. Take a look on the Third Party board here.
-
It could take a while to get this right. See the attached image for a couple of hours work on header...
-
I think this is done.
-
I hate it.
In other words:
Well done! Congratulations, marko! You achieved your goal. It looks like iTunes. :)
-
Alex, thanks, and I know what you mean!! I kept asking "Why?" whilst putting this together.
I've attached a heavily optimised version for anyone that wants a look. If there are no problems, I'll post a higher quality release.
An updated file is attached a few posts below....
-
I kind of like it, please post the high quality release, many thanks. :)

I still hate it. Thanks.
... and then the first bug report:
The dividers between the display and PN list and between the tree and the right pane are too thin. They are very difficult to grab. The divider between the view splits in my screenshot is "normal".
The "Media Center" text doesn't work with the buttons and text labels on the top toolbar.
The right edge ends quite abruptly when there is no scrollbar. This a matter of taste, but perhaps some kind of a thin frame would look better (also on the left).
(see the attached screenshot)

Agreed. See this post (http://yabb.jriver.com/interact/index.php?topic=55635.msg378149#msg378149) for more on the divider behaviour.
As it's a 'catch all', so the horizontal divider in this skin is also 1 pixel wide, whereas in the iTunes skin, the horizontal divider is more chunky, I'll change it so they're both like the horizontal one in iTunes.
The "Media Center" text doesn't work with the buttons and text labels on the top toolbar.
I'll take it out. I use the bottom toolbar as 99.99% of the time, my top is covered by my permanent PlayingNow popup. (see attached)
The right edge ends quite abruptly when there is no scrollbar. This a matter of taste, but perhaps some kind of a thin frame would look better (also on the left).
I agree here too. There were many areas where I had to stop myself from adding my own improvements. I had to keep reminding myself that this is meant to be, as much as possible, a copy.
The left and right edges are actually 1 pixel width of transparency. I'll think about filling them in.
Thanks for the feedback. :)

This is great.
Could you increase the size of the file to ~80MB? Perhaps also make it run really slow and exhibit sporadic behaviour?
Cheers.

Wow!, so much hate :o, what did this skin ever do to you? ::)

All appears to be good with this, so I've moved it to the Skins Forum (http://yabb.jriver.com/interact/index.php?topic=55829.0)
