Would you like something like this?

PS. I coded it as a separate skin, i will integrate a "position CD/vinyl case right" into the present skins. Update will come soon.

short question: how is "no album art" picture handled? is it defined in skin or popup+ component itself define it over skin?
You can define it in both. In the skin I put a "no cover" picture behind the layer of the avatar (albumart), which means if there is no cover found, the avatar layer will be blank and you can see the the picture behind it (you can still replace it with your own)
Defining in pop+ means that the avatar layer won't be blank at all, it will be always filled with image.
Go Preferences/Popupplus/Advanced
insert:
$replace(%path%,%filename_ext%,*.jpg)
$replace(%path%,%filename_ext%,*.png)
$replace(%path%,%filename_ext%,front.jpg)
(etc etc, you can define to put different pictures for audio cds, radio streams, search for it in the forum)
images\nocover.jpg
Put your no cover picture in program files\foobar\images\nocover.jpg This will be the no cover picture but will be displayed as an avatar so it still overlays the nocover picture in the skin. This must be the last entry, otherwise the other expressions below it wont be noticed. The component scans from up to down and finds the first true expression (the "images\nocover.jpg" is always true)
I hope I explained well and you understand now.

And could you tell me how to make the buttons in the task bar? (like the screen you showed)
Extract Taskbar Shortcuts folder into Program Files\foobar2000
Extract Taskbar folder into Program Files\foobar2000\Images
right click on taskbar: Toolbars > New Toolbar
navigate to folder: Program Files\foobar2000\Taskbar Shortcuts > Select Folder
right click on the new toolbar > tick out show title and show text
and it should work
