Foobar2000 Skins / FooBear

Artist's Note

PLUGINS NEEDED
- foo_ui_columns.dll - http://yuo.be/columns.php
- foo_ui_panels.dll - http://panels.fooblog2000.com/
- foo_cwb_hooks.dll - http://www.bazquux.com/wiki/Foobar2000:Hooks
- foo_playcount_mod.dll - http://www.hydrogenaudio.org/forums/index.php?showtopic=52776
- foo_uie_powerpanels.dll - http://www.hydrogenaudio.org/forums/index.php?showtopic=56621
- foo_uie_quicksearch.dll - http://www.hydrogenaudio.org/forums/index.php?showtopic=44012
- Plus one extra that is included in the rar.

HOW TO USE
- Install the fonts.
- Extract the rar contents to: /foobar2000/PanelsUI/
Go to preferences > PanelsUI and select the foobear.pui file in the Layout dropdown box.
- I recommend that you turn on ClearType if you use Windows XP.
- Add and scan your Media Library in Preferences > Media Library.
- If the album title in the playlist is called "Single Tracks" you must tag your album's Total Tracks tag. The easiest way to do this is to select all your songs in the playlist > rightclick > rightclick again on the Total Tracks field and choose "Auto track number".
- To display the album art:
The front cover must be named folder.jpg and be located in the album's folder where the music files are.
Same with artists. Name those images artist.jpg.

- Tag your music!
Rightclick on your songs and choose properties. Fill in the correct artist, title, year, total tracks, album name etc.
See http://musicbrainz.org/ for the correct tags you need for your music.

- To change the background between the bear and a blank one - click on the 1 & 2 buttons next to the search area.
- The 3 top left buttons switches between, playlist, playlist switcher and library filter.

That wallpaper is from: http://djmattricks.deviantart.com/art/Vplants-9-39724532

KNOWN ISSUES
- If you use the latest PanelsUI beta 0.14.x the rating buttons won't work correctly. I recommend that you use the latest 0.13.x instead.
- Minor issue with the big play/pause button on the big cover image.

Licensing: the artist has specified that mods are allowed.

	report poma says: This is great work! I personally like to run my Foobar setups minimal, so no album covers and such. But everyone that likes those should definitely use this over Windows Media Player or other anyday! My girl is running Foobar now too... Mon, Oct 1st at 05:14am (1 year ago)
	report TheProfessor says: Like I said to Kongo already, its a cutey for sure. Running it on my girls computer. Great work!! Thu, Oct 4th at 12:31pm (1 year ago)

	report yoship1 says: I really like your work, but the problem is that i´m a idiot... :D Could you please explain how to install your skin in detail. Ex. where do i find "PanelsUI"? Where do i put all files? What ClearType? How to start up this amazing skin? I hope can get an answer. Thanks. =P You can mail me at: a-games@hotmail.com Wed, Oct 10th at 02:16pm (1 year ago)
	report yoship1 says: haha, btw, du kan gärna ta det på svenska om det underlättar :D Wed, Oct 10th at 02:23pm (1 year ago)
	report neohappy says: thanks alot! Sun, Oct 14th at 12:04am (1 year ago)
	report littleman says: Excellent skin mod. However it's still largely incomplete? Stuff like fixing up ease of editing the playlist section and the interface of the library would be great.. Or maybe it's just my computer that's acting up, because some of the stuff doesn't show. Regardless, please keep working on it. I usually keep my music players minimalistic, but this mod skin changed my mind. Sun, Oct 14th at 11:24am (1 year ago)
	report s33m33 says: Excellent skin. So simple and soothing. Thank you very much. Mon, Oct 15th at 04:35am (1 year ago)

	report geekmaster1 says: Any idea why pretty_popup is finding and using album art (bottom right) and Foobear skin is not displaying them (not all though. maybe half) http://www.347media.com/screen-captures/ pretty_popup.jpg Wed, Oct 31st at 06:19pm (1 year ago)
	report bruners says: This is really one of the nicest skins I have seen! keep up the good work. I made some changes and added that so you can view track ratings in the playlist with the code $alignabs(250,15,$sub(%_width%,162),18,l eft,middle)$font(Calibri,8,,$if(%ispla ying%,110-110-110,130-130-130))%date% $font(Calibri,9,,208-128-60)$if(%rating% >0, %rating%/5 rating) Maby something you can add properly in your skin if you like it aswell :) Sat, Nov 17th at 08:14pm (1 year ago)
	report xr7vr0 says: Awesome skin! I just felt like the red hearts were a little out of place so i just had to make orange stars that kinda go with the theme. I just thought i would share. http://i36.photobucket.com/albums/e16/rm 2xrco/foobear/rating0.png http://i36.photobucket.com/albums/e16/rm 2xrco/foobear/rating1.png http://i36.photobucket.com/albums/e16/rm 2xrco/foobear/rating2.png http://i36.photobucket.com/albums/e16/rm 2xrco/foobear/rating3.png http://i36.photobucket.com/albums/e16/rm 2xrco/foobear/rating4.png http://i36.photobucket.com/albums/e16/rm 2xrco/foobear/rating5.png If you do use these, you have to clear your temporary files and restart foobar or they won't show up Wed, Nov 21st at 09:29pm (1 year ago)
	report bruners says: awesome! just what i needed for my black&orange version of foobear! http://files.ipwn.se/foobar2000.jpg Fri, Nov 23rd at 07:56pm (1 year ago)
	report kiubik says: Guys! I'm really impressed of this foobar skin, it's awesome! I'd installed it, but not everything works properly :( 1. not everyone album cover is shown (but it's in direct folder and called folder.jpg) 2. playlists list doesn't work. i'd tried to use all commands - NEW, LOAD, SAVE etc. and still nought :( Sun, Nov 25th at 07:40am (1 year ago)
	report tosemusic says: I can't install the skin! There is not enough description for the installation! Can someone please tell me a detailed description of installing, or add me on MSN tose-jambi@hotmail.com and explain? Please! Thu, Jan 31st at 10:30am (1 year ago)
	report elepop says: I absolutely love this skin! The one thing I like less is the fact that you have to put all the covers in the album folder and name it folder.jpg because I have too many albums and I'm too lazy to do all that. Thu, Mar 6th at 01:45pm (1 year ago)
	report dioptric says: Bra jobbat lassekongo! :D Tue, May 6th at 04:50pm (1 year ago)

	report THAANSA3 says: Do all of the foobar plugins (or components) listed above work for Vista, specifically 64-bit Vista? I ask because I was reading something on their website about certain plugins causing problems with the Vista operating system and a warning to be sure to download only those that are completely compatible. Can anyone help me out? Tue, Feb 3rd at 03:59pm (4 months ago)
