Album Cover

Does anybody know of a plugin that will show the album cover of what's currently playing on the desktop? Thanks.

Just click on the "What's Playing Now?" link on the main page.

Re: Album Cover

If memory serves me, there was talk of having that on the main page without accessing a new window. (Changes were discussed in conjunction with the new server). But that fell by the wayside mostly due to lack of time and interest.

I think lack of time rather than interest Rick. It's probably a bit of a job and as this is more of a hobby for the people that make it all happen...........

OK, it seems to have slipped off into the aether. I never got it. If you could resend it to me, I'd be quite appreciative.

Roger -Dot- Lee, You're batting 1000 with your suggestions, so I'm all ears (including that funny shaped one on the front of my face, between the ear I eat with and the ears I see with)

Re: Album Cover

I was thinking Greg was asking for something that would get the album cover of the currently playing song and then display it, big-like, on his computer desktop. updating automagically, I would assume. which would be cool, but I can never see my desktop anyway...
