Would anyone kindly look at this pic and tell me what font is used? i'm pretty sure its just Microsoft Sans Serif but when I apply this fcs.. the special characters (music symbol, heart symbol) wont show up :(

Simple, but it gets the job done.

Toast gives me the rest of the album info, as seen on my desktop.

Tahoma, and MS UI Gothic (applied for Japanese character, because of Windows font mapping).

I am trying to set up bobs skin, I am new to all of this, so I was wondering what I do with his quoted text and how I use a FCS file

Dunno what you mean by a bobs skin or the quoted text, but I do know what you do with a fcs file. FCS stands for foobar customised settings or something along those lines. It basically saves your foobar. You can export an FCS file (saving it) and import one (opening it). To import or export FCS files, you'll have to go to the preferences. Here's a screenshot of what it looks like. Sorry about the size of it, I can't be bothered cropping it (yes, I'm lazy).

not working here

Go into the foobar preferences and look for Display > Columns UI > Columns tab.

Here you can create, delete, edit and move columns and change what appears inside them. Have a play around. :)

I figured that much, escept I've only ever worked with HTML and CSS< never with SQL or whatever this is. I don't understand all the restrictors and stuff. How hard is it to just display artist or album or whatever? Why can't it be just as simple as $artist$. Or is it? I have no idea, lol.

Edit: Additionally, how do I make it so that it only reads files from folders, and not from any RARS inside those folders? I'm getting tonnes of doubles.

It can be complex, but the easy parts are as simple as what you said, except it's %artist% as opposed to $artist$. In the prefs go to the title formatting page and hit the help button. It'll pop up an html page with all the tags you can use. If you don't want to make a whole script, just use the simple parts.

This and this[/uel] might help as well.

You have to go to the components folder and remove the archive reader DLL. You must've installed it with the special installer (it's not part of the standard install). You can go to Prefs --> Components to figure out which DLL it is.

It's weird... menu and window title font is Tahoma, but the rest aren't :p

Thanks for your help =) Aside from some things it is pretty well much how I want it now, thankyou. Except for the Archive-Readr. I've scanned the component library, and the folder in Program Files, but I can't figure out what it is. There isn't anything called archivereader.dll, lol, or anything I can see along those lines.

They explained how to import an FCS file, but the text in the code box is for the Trackinfo plugin.
