Unfortunately it's not very easy to include such a feature (so that most users would like it I guess). Attached you'll find a design study I once did. As you can see this study adheres to the current SqueezePad layout (i.e. just uses the left menu bar). One will have bigger covers but to still print the album name there is not enough room left. Maybe looks a little bit nicer though than the current album view, but much less information -> you probably will be slower with browsing albums this way. What could be the alternative? Well - full screen cover wall of course! But: how to switch from current menu style to full screen cover in a nice and intuitive way? Also after selecting an album, we have to switch back to the track view so whatever animation we use: it might feel a little bit unsettled if the left menu always grows and shrinks. So far I didn't come up with a good idea that felt intuitive, but I'm open to any suggestion! In the end SqueezePad always strives to be more intuitive than iPeng (oh noes, now pippin will answer again ;)) and I won't sacrifice this main directive for a big but clumsy album wall too easily :) +-------------------------------------------------------------------+ |Filename: album-covers1.jpg | |Download: http://forums.slimdevices.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=13030| +-------------------------------------------------------------------+ -- bluegaspode Did you know: *'SqueezePlayer' (www.squeezeplayer.com)* will stream all your music to your Android device.
