More Popomundo Art

Yeah, I’m still playing and quite active in Popomundo. I suppose the older/better your character gets the more you get motivated to play. Or maybe it’s a matter of wanting to try out everything that one can do in the game. Whatever the case might be, that’s not the topic of this post.

   

   

Recently I’ve been doing some more Popomundo art work, and yeah I know these aren’t exactly super hot pieces of design, or in some cases design at all. But I still like doing the odd piece every now and then. It makes for a great break from usual designing work. Not to mention the fact that these aren’t paid designs, so people (including myself) get what they paid for.

Nyah, here we go again!

I know that I haven’t update in a while, and there probably is a good reason for it as well. I’m working on a new version of Rihards Online, but seeing that it’s not a top priority project at the moment, it’s taking quite a bit of time.

So until it’s done and launched, I’ll be posting odd bits and pieces that come to mind. So let’s start then. A new version of foobar 2000 is out. What is foobar? Only the best music player that there is. Forget winamp and iTunes, both are rubbish (unless for some reason you are locked into using one of those, then I pity you).

The new version is actually pretty cool, lots of new changes, including my favourite, a new user interface. And it’s not just any new user interface, it’s a fully editable user interface. What does that mean? Well it means that you can delete everything from the player user interface when you open it, and then add bits back where you want them.

Want to have the toolbar at the bottom? No problem. Want to have a huge album art section? No problem. You can basically do anything that you want. Having said that there are two things that I do miss. First is a proper lyrics component that supports the new user interface. And the second thing is a table of album covers just like WMP11 has it.

This is what my current theme looks like:

Sure it’s nothing spectacular, and it doesn’t have super eye-candy, but it currently only takes up 18mb of ram, and that’s with who knows how many GBs of music loaded, and the visualisation component running.

You can download the new foobar version from the official webpage where you can also check out some more screenshots of it in action.
