Hey I was wondering where you got the images for the vinyl theme from. Or did you make them yourself? I think the "No Cover" image is a little bland, and I'm seeing it a lot because I've got lots of obscure internet rips and unreleased remixes.
I'd like to change it so that it shows the LP beneath it. I tried using the noSong image, but it's very difficult because the sizes of the LPs don't quite match and it has a transparent layer of gray over it.
Any help would be appreciated. Other than that, this is a great utility. Keep up the good work.

you can rename the nocover to nosong and it will show the other then, you need to modify the xml a bit to get it to the right position...
Tell me if you don't get it

Hey, im trying to get the covers to work with exaile 0.3.0.1, i created a dbus function in exaile to return the cover path, and it does actually return the cover path in the form of: file:///file/here
But the problem is... CoverGloobus doesn't show the cover anyway... Could that be because CoverGloobus can't handle file:// ?

lyricwiki.org now diverts to [link] . it keeps the same format of artist:track_name etc but i can't get it to work with covergloobus 
Also to people who don't know how to close covergloobus - just click on it and then hit ALT+Q.

Thanks I've changed it and performed some improvements

Excuse me, but I want to know, How can I modify the lyrics source ?, becouse, I listen BM, Goth, Dark, etc, so that's pretty under ground and the current source don't works for me, I want to change it by darklyrics.com or something like that.
Thanks.

It's a little complicated, it needs to load the specific adress depending on the artist and song title and then find the specific part of the page where the lyric is. There is the lyric.py where the code is.

How do I close CoverGloobus without issuing killall?
π: 0 β©: 1
Pressing on it and then pressing ESC key
π: 0 β©: 1
No luck, I'm afraid. Tried that before along with something that was suggested on a Ubuntu blog, pressing space twice I think it was.
I just downloaded it again and tested pressing ESC, but still no luck. Also, the rating stars don't seem to work when I click on them, but maybe that has to be done in the player itself and isn't a feature of covergloobus?
π: 0 β©: 1
about ESC maybe I've it in my version but I haven't uploaded it yet, about the starts in covergloobus, it just shows them, no option to controll them (By now!!)
π: 0 β©: 1
Ahh, no prob. Looking forward to the new version.

Hi, author, and any ideas or plans for the future with mpd, mpc, sonata?
π: 0 β©: 1
Are those another players? As long as they have dbus or comand line interface to controll them the plugins can be easily developed!
π: 0 β©: 1
Sorry, no good in english,
I used MPD with Sonata and MPC -> [link]
π: 0 β©: 0
does it support themes? take a look at this
[link]
i love that theme for nowplayingscreenlet; however nowplaying is not working well so i ll try ur application; looks very cool
π: 0 β©: 2
I tried the themes you gave me and them all worked without any problem with covergloobus
To install them just copy the folders into covergloobus/themes, then launch covergloobus-config.py and select the desired theme.
After it, you can run covergloobus and you'll notice the changes!!
π: 0 β©: 0
Yes it does!
I'm going to download that theme and modify it to work with covergloobus!
I'll notice you once I get it!
Or if you wanna try to do it you'll be my hero!

It is possible to make theme like in this plugin for rhythmbox
This plugin is great but not for banshee :/
π: 0 β©: 1
The reflecitons are still not possible... neither the borders cut off..
Maybe in next versions I implement reflections, that would be nice!

So i will wait to next version

This looks like an awesome program. I'm having a bit of difficulty getting it to run though.
I'm fairly new to Linux, so that may be the cause.
I'm trying to get CoverGloobus to work with Songbird with the dirty theme.
As you can see in this screenshot, all I'm getting is the controls. [link]
Here's my songbird version: Version: Songbird 1.1.2, Build 1042 (20090331141709)
This should be the newest version of Songbird being that I installed it yesterday.
Any idea what I'm doing wrong?
π: 0 β©: 2
Songbird doesn't support dbus so good, so the plugin is still not working, it may be confusing that is included in the package but I'm sorry to say that is not working, by the way, why don't you use banshee? I think is much more better than songbird, now they've just released 1.5 version that runs pretty well!
π: 0 β©: 0
I switched to Banshee and CoverGloobus works without any problem. I like it better than Songbird anyway.
This is an absolutely wonderful program. Exactly what I was looking for.
Thank you.

Just keeps getting better! +1 for the rise against love, too 
Any chance you could share the wallpaper? It looks sweet!
π: 0 β©: 1
Thanks! for the wall.. I don't remember where I got it... If I found it again..
Anyway, if you send me a note with you mail I can send it to you!

This is not a screenlet!!
If you wanna configure some things, double-click CoverGloobus-config.py
I hope it helps!
