I'd have to agree here.  Although somewhat subjective, I find the white too bright and stark. Unless you really prefer the white, I'd also like it toned down a bit.

VERY nice job DJ . . . you have made it into my top 3 favorite skins list   ;D




Ok, i'll have a look at that  :)

And ....  thank you  :D

Lise, could you please explain where you find the white too bright and stark. I'm probably looking in the wrong spot. Give me an example.

Thank you Lisa.

I changed Selected Back "FFFFFF" in three places with D6D9DD and now can see what you mean.

DJ,

I'm so impressed with the latest track info, excellent stuff. All I'd suggest would be to move the info box a bit to the right to allow the cover art to be bigger.

You've just about got MC looking the way I always wanted it!

Cheers.

Thanks!

I'm currently playing around with different sizes for the track-info (depending on resolution). You're absolutely right, the cover art should be bigger.

... I will find a solution for that.   :D

Yes.

I think the cover art will move to another place. Then we will have more space for additional buttons. 'Notes' will be one of them.

Hi DJ
Just noticed that the lyrics are not properly shwn with page breaks on your template.
Also, the text in the Action Window, while in 'File Properties -> Detailed Info' you cannot read the text until you mouse-over and get the pop-up . . .  is that a bug?

I love the package, keeps getting better and the track info template adds alot.  Overall it has a nice look and feel.  :-)


Any way to add an Artist Bio button on the main view to access the King's artist bio field in my tags?

Hi

Are you using the latest versions of the package?

In some previous NightLife-Betas there was a wrong color-definition which made the file-properties unreadable.

There was a problem with the lyrics-display too. But this is fixed in the current version.

The bios-display will be in the next version   ;)

trackinfo request

Is it possible for the info not to reset to "main" everytime the currently playing track changes?

If it's possible, can we have it, please.
How does everyone else feel?
I would prefer if I click "audio" for example, it stays there till I click something else.

I would prefer this too.

But if MC switches to the next title, it generates the info based on the 'index.html'. And this is the 'main'-info.

If i can find a way you will get it within one of the next versions.

I think the only way to get something like that would be to add links with
target="blank"
so that these pages would be opened in a new (external) browser window... you can then watch these windows until you close them while the TrackInfo in MC follows the NowPlaying tracks...

EDIT: You have to use javascript to hand over the values to the external HTML... I made a quick example you can build on ;)
Install "ExternalShow" Example Track Info

I've tried it and found out the following:

If i go to mini-me and change the option to 'Always on top' it doesn't work. But if i go back to mega-me and then switch again to mini-me, it works  ?

I've tested it with other mini-me skins too, and it was the same.

Hi!

Within the first post you can find the latest NightLife-updates.

For a list of changes see change-history (first post).

I also have added a link to some toolbar-icons.

I hope you like the new version  ::)

DJ_Hazelwood, you should be really proud of this skin. It's an awesome package.
One of the reasons I like it so much is that it's crisp, clean, and looks really good without drawing focus away from the stuff contained within it (our files).
The trackinfo template is as sweet as a sweet thing now it's not resetting, and to cap it all off, toolbar icons too!!! A "first" in MC skinning.

Thank you very much indeed.  8)

Due to some design-changes they had to go   :(

But if you like them you can download it here and replace the corresponding gif-files:

Rounded buttons for Mega-skin

Rounded buttons for Mini-skin

Rounded buttons for Trackinfo

Hi DJ,
Thanks for all your work with the skins, THey are really good.

Now that I buttered you up...

Is there a way to change the track Info Template to match the color of the Opus skin?
I really like the Track Info but kinda looks funny with the Opus skin.
