New album art theme for Gigabeat (Big_AA_SVN)

(1/1)

woodensoul:
I just uploaded my first theme, creatively named "Big_AA_SVN".  I'd appreciate any criticisms, praises or comments here.

Features include:

* 237 X 237 album art display which is nearly the largest for this target
* alternating subline that displays filetype bitrate and playlist info
* settings for gradient line selector to match the theme background
* settings for tango_small icons
* status bar is enabled for this theme

Monkeytamer:
I like that there is support for large album art, as I personally am a proponent for emphasized artwork of the album currently playing, but I don't really understand why the size used for album art is 247x247. Isn't the width for the Gigabeat only 240 pixels? Wouldn't part of the album art be clipped? Otherwise there would be a need for .bmp resizing. Don't get me wrong, this is a good looking WPS, I just don't understand why you used that size for album art.

AlexP:
Yes, the gigabeat is 240 pixels wide, so 247 will indeed crop.

woodensoul:
Oops, typo there.  It should say 237 x 237.  The actual WPS album art is 237 x 237.  I needed room for the status bar and the first line below the album art so I had to take 3 pixels away from the maximum size.
