firstly. as a complete n00b, i have done much reading. lots of it, and i need two things answering, the first is a simple one, how do i change the background of the columns in columns ui, ie, the artist, length, album etc background? - told you it was simple...

the second is not so easy. i have a creative zen mp3 player, and would like to get an album art viewer for foobar2000 that lets me preview album art when im playing music, but also autosyncs with the zen to put the .jpeg files on there. any ideas?

cheers,

jordan.

for the UI columns, first, see if you have to define your colors in the global tab under display-> UI columns-> playlist view (especially if you use an already made .fcs)

else, see something here, not yet complete, but it will be soon

you sir, win at life.

cheers.

now, about that album art sync...

haha!

Have you tried foo_uie_albumart, which will at least allow you to view the album art in foobar2000?

I'm not a fan of anything that automatically moves or copies files around, but what I might add to the Album Art Panel is something where you can hold ctrl, click on the panel and drag it into a Windows Explorer window and it will copy the album art image to the folder you dropped it on. I'll have to see how hard that is to implement, though...
