I like to keep my foobar simple, with all the other fancy functionalities hidden under the hood. I have enough clutter on my screen :wacko:

Oh, and I cheated. Some of the extra buttons are just plaintext. Too lazy to draw them (and they look nice as is)

Looks like you are missing the font Corbel, which is what the artist names are supposed to be. As far as text overlapping, I know it happens and it's something I need to fix. :rolleyes:

Hey guys. I'm using the foobar customization found here:

http://www.fooblog2000.com/2007-03/fofr-co...ration-pack-v05

However, I have absolutely no idea where to put my album art, what to name it, and how to size it. If anyone could help me out I would be very grateful.

you put your album art in each album folder.. and label it folder.jpg. For example, if you have a folder for say Nelly Furtado - Loose, you would put the folder.jpg in that album, it will then show up in foobar. it doesn't get any easier than that.

Oh I see. I don't have my music organized in folders (rather, all my music is in one folder). Will I have to create folders for everything, or is there a way to maintain my current structure? Thanks for the help.

Egads, man! :blink:

Luckily, Foobar has some wonderful functions to move and rename files based on tags that are great for organization. Read here.

If you don't want to edit any part of the config, then yes.

(Although it wouldn't be difficult as it can be automated by foobar)

if you don't mind, you could go change the path's to the coverart to something like:

...My Music\covers\%artist% - %album%.jpg

and then place and name the images likewise.

Eitherway, you're going to need a properly tagged collection.

    • Windows 11's big performance boost is finally available for all

      There really isn't anything magical about the low latency profile, other OS's do this as well. All they're doing is using your CPUs boost clock options in a more smarter way.

      So we shouldn't have the option because of people using their laptops on battery? OK? LOL

      If you hear that fans for a limited time the CPU spikes to open a app I don't think the problem is with the software. There shouldn't be enough time spent at the higher clocks to produce enough heat to peak the fans. Maybe it's time to crack those dell laptops open and clean them out?
