axialix ... take your time, for such an awesome skin cannot be rushed, we appreciate all your work and understand you have other commitments (sp?) too.

Either way, we love your work thus far (even though I already said that)

Long Live clearONE

Yes, there will be a final release.  I'm working on it right now, but it's rather slow because of my busy schedule.  I've already added a few items (main window freeze, notifier stay on top option, etc.) and given it a totally new look, but there's still a lot left to do.

I do want to thank everyone for the continued interest.  You won't be disappointed.  :)

A totally new look?

How totally new is this new look?

Kidding - I'm sure it'll be great :D

Can't wait to see what you have in store for us

I do remember it Barisko, but check out the Mac OS X Panther skin by Martin Deimos: http://www.martin.deimos.de.vu/

It retrieves covers from the web as well as your hard drive, so I plan on using something similiar for clearONE. Also, you can select an image to use if no cover is available. How does that sound?

The old graphics were pretty basic, so I've tried to be creative with the new ones. After all, it isn't called "clear"ONE for nothing.

holy moly that has got to bet he best skin i tried to achieve something like that with foobar but with no luck this sure got it. :D

just a question when i change the song and everything winamp shows the album cover but when i user the coverart there is no image.. is there anyway the image it shows when playing a song is loaded up for the coverart as well?

Also is it possible to make the playlist (window) transparent?

:edit: is there an easier way to have album art for certain albums as i have a few mp3s which dont ahve album art but i can get them fromt eh internet and i dun have my mp3s organized as you have in your screenshot there all in 1 big folder :( so is there anyway?

Nope. You pretty much have to have it the way shown in Axialix's screenshot for the cover art to work. Otherwise you can use 3rd party programs to show coverart for mp3s that are not organised by albums.

As for playlist transparency, go through Window Settings->Opacity and set it at what you'd like.

ssssssssst, here's a secret for ya.... don't tell anybody else.... :)

Axialix is still working on the skin... and it's getting better and better:

and he is planning to add "web-cover-art" feature :happy: . In other words: one day the skin will be able to get ANY cover from the web.

So when that day comes there's no need to place/rename cover-art in the right folder!

That's cool! That means no more questions about it too :D

thread cleaned

as for making the taskbar like that, it's not going to be easy. technically, the xp theming engine by default cannot handle per pixel/layered transparency (which, as i understand it, windowblinds 5 will be able to do). so you won't be able to get that effect by default.

you have several options. you can use another app that will add that effect, or you can create the "transparent" taskbar bitmap and replace it in the vs (e.g. create the effect manually).

thanks i knew about the opacity thing but that makes it all transparent even the coverart i just wanted the play list transparent its not really a big deal, and now i hear of this web thing and it sounds great..

I should really start properlly tagging my mp3s but im jus soo damn lazy as i have over 800

    • This one baffles me...so they are creating a museum based around the Ship of Theseus? A museum is supposed to preserve things. It doesn't really work if the conversation goes, "I gazed upon Starry Night the other day, the colours were beautiful!" "Yeah...I didn't expect Godzilla to show up, though." Create a building devoted to displaying AI work, fine. The rainforest idea sounds interesting and I would consider visiting if they pay me a few bucks. But don't call it a museum...
    • >defenders of AI-generated artworks often claim that AI is just a tool It is not. It is the inhuman artist replacement. The human writing the prompt is the employer/manager requesting the work product of the artist -- a supervisory/descriptive job that doesn't carry with it any rights to the copyright of that work product at all. And since AI is not human itself, it can't gain copyright for anything it is asked to regurgitate or hallucinate, so it can't transfer that copyright to the employer/manager/human who asked for the output. This was all legally reaffirmed last year. So, no, while there are AI tools, AI slopware generation is NOT a "tool" in the legal definition of that word.

    • Google is opening the world's first AI museum in Los Angeles by Ivan Jenic Image via: Google Ever since AI image generators went mainstream, the debate over whether AI-generated art is real art hasn't let up. Those who don’t consider AI to be art say that if a machine does the creating and anyone can prompt it, there’s no skill involved, and therefore no art is produced. The counter-argument is equally persistent, as defenders of AI-generated artworks often claim that AI is just a tool, and that every major technological breakthrough, like the camera or the computer, was met with the same skepticism before eventually being accepted as a legitimate creative medium. Google’s position in this debate is clear. Which is no surprise, as the company is investing billions in AI infrastructure. And now, in efforts to encourage people to use its AI even more, Google is opening Dataland on June 20, which it's calling the world's first AI arts museum. Located inside The Grand LA, a Frank Gehry-designed building in Los Angeles, the museum spans 25,000 square feet. The museum is built around a collaboration with media artist Refik Anadol, who has worked with Google since 2016. The inaugural exhibition is called Machine Dreams: Rainforest, and is powered by an AI model trained on “an extensive dataset of the natural world.” It generates 1.2 billion pixels of visuals in real time and reacts to visitors dynamically. The space also generates soundscapes, real-time emotion sensing, and algorithmically produced scents. Image via: Refik Anadol Studio / Google Google says that the museum is powered by its Gemini models, which run on Google Cloud. So, everything is generated inside one of Google’s AI data centers and is streamed to the museum. Alongside the museum opening, Google Arts & Culture is funding an AI Artist Residency, giving four artists $25,000 grants each, along with mentorship from Refik Anadol Studio and access to Google's machine learning tools. Their work will be shown at Dataland and on the Google Arts & Culture website later this year. Google’s AI museum will undoubtedly initiate a fired-up debate on social media, and we can’t wait to see the first reactions. Via: Smithsonian Magazine
