[QUOTE="fstx, post: 1224505, member: 161626"] In my opinion, this is the right thing [IMG]https://www.howtogeek.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/sshot20100328011142.png[/IMG] Some notes on the attention to detail that interface exhibits: [LIST=1] [*]Navigation uses the four arrow keys. [*]When an artist has more albums than one column, more columns will be used. The spacing between columns for the same artist is just a few pixels, but the spacing between artists is larger. Note that there is more space to the left of the artist name than to the right [*]The squares with only text means missing album art. Note the backgrounds of those are different colors from the light end of the spectrum, but about 25% from white. [*]The selected albumi is slightly enlarged, That movement that results when you step around makes it easier to follow where you are. [*]The vertical text is tilt-your-head-right. I suspect they tried tilt-your-head-left and found this to be better. [*]You get into this view directly from the main menu. Focus will be put where you where last. [*]The view options and search are accessed by just going to them with the arrow keys [*]The views are listed above the albums. Note how font size and color are used to mark the current view. [*]I find this interface a good look. The content (album covers) is emphasized, and the interface is the background [*]I t is also a very good feel. Navigation is simple and efficient. [*]More importantly, so does the other people using it. [/LIST] Btw, the present view does not show album covers at all for me. I have embedded coves into the mp3 files, and a folder.jpg file in all of the folders. [/QUOTE]
