... (see my other threads)



PS this one uses (70x70)px bitmaps for Albumart.

Is multifont support already in SVN?
nice theme, though.

Not yet.

It is a nice theme indeed... although I really don't feel like resizing all of my album art again for my iPod color.

[BdN3504]

How big is your album art currently? i could create a costumized version for you without the next up info... Or compile a build for you which includes the album art resize patch.  PS: this theme works on any current build. multifont is not needed, it uses the system font and helvB12.

How big is your album art currently?

On my iPod color, I use 75x75 artwork.

[BdN3504]

OK, i've just created a 75x75 version. I didn't think that this would fit but it does very well actually.
What do you think, which one should i commit to the wiki? I have created two gif files one showing the difference and the other one showing the theme with the (75x75)px Albumart.

I think that this theme and all of the Free State ports are perfect, except for one (tiny) thing:

You use 2 fonts in the whole theme, the bigger (I think Helvetica?) one is great, but the other one looks terrible in my opinion (the sysfont, is it?)

It kind of reminds of a horrible looking system default font which just doesn't flow with the other font and the whole theme.

I know that right now only two fonts are allowed by multifont, 1 user configured font and the sysfont, but once full multifont support gets committed, will you PLEASE consider changing the sysfont to a cleaner small font that fits the feel of the theme?

Good luck with your porting!

I appreciate your feedback. I don't know if multifont support for more than two fonts will ever make it into the svn, but if it does, i'll change the themes immediately. Do you have any suggestions for a nicely fitting small font?

Hi,

the WPS looks really nice, but i noticed one little issue that could probably improved:
From the screendumps it looks as if the "Times Played" string always has to scroll. I was wondering if this couldn't be replaced by something shorter, so it doesn't have to scroll. Maybe "Playcount"?

PS: I prefer the 75x75px album art too.

[BdN3504]

Thanks for the feedback again.

Here is what it looks like, and yes you're right it's more convenient to have that line resting rather than scrolling all the time.

UPDATE:

[wintermute23]

Are you sure you uploaded the correct version to the wiki? It seems to have 240*320 backdrops, and 100x100 album art...

[BdN3504]

Thanks for the hint. i have uploaded the correct version, but posted the wrong link in the wiki. Sorry
