Yep, CD Art Display 2b5 users can now have a matching skin to go with the original WLM skin.

The reason I chose the beta version of CAD over the stable 1.0 release is that I found the beta to be really stable already, and elements such as text glows and pretty much skinning in general were impressively refined. CD Art Display is an awesome bit of software that is incredibly versatile.

You can find 724 for CAD here.

On another note, SevenTwoFour itself is coming up to its third incarnation. Version 2.5, as I have said previously, could be seen as just a bridge between versions 2 and 3. I have yet to have a few things done for 2.5, mostly boring stuff such as cleaning up the code, especially the SkinInfo. It should be out by the end of November, at the very latest.

Yes, a new version of 724 is in the works! This halfway point between 2 and 3 will include fading watermarks, an updated options panel and some general optimisational tweaks here and there. The major bugs will probably not be fixed in this version, but I may able to find time to get the Color Picker dialogs how I want them. All in due time!

Finally I am rid of Freewebs for good…WordPress is much more powerful and flexible (but the theming part was a slight nightmare, and IE doesn’t like the sidebar for some reason. Get Firefox).

I’ve really got nothing to say at the moment, but I will be announcing and updating all my skins here on CmYK from now on. I’ll be putting up a redirect page on Freewebs for a short while (maybe a month and a half) and then I’ll shut it down.

Adios amigos!
