Hey Kode,
hey all others around...

I don't know if it's a help, but regarding cdarts, one of our xbmcnerds.com users made a gimp-fu script for cdarts...

just copy the script to \~\GIMP-2.0\share\gimp\2.0\scripts\
restart gimp
and then you have a button "cd" in the menu...then just opening the png from what you want to extract the cdart and click the button...finished...
if it doesn't fit, there's a slider to adjust the size of the cutted area...

you can find the script over at xbmcnerds.com in the download-database, exactly here:
http://www.xbmcnerds.com/index.php?page=DownloadDBData&dataID=36

hope this helps...

cheers,
mm

Will definitly giva that a try. Does this also reduce the file size because that was my biggest problem so far. Keeping it under 600kb

To be honest, I never cared about the file-size, so I did not check, yet...
but this would be quite easy for all users I guess...the worst part is done by the script...or someone takes the script as a basis and develops it further to also reduce the size under 600kb...

Well me neither however it's a soft limit for fanart.tv
If this can be done semi automatic this will definitly increase the number of cdarts uploaded to them.

Let's see, will take a look at the script later on...first got to do some bugfixing in my skin Wink

Hi, I'm too stupid. Where in the menu I have that button?

Sorry for being a newb, but does this only work with neon?

I've started making a CDart video tutorial. CDarts aren't my speciality though, so it may take me a day or so to do it. I'll upload it as soon as it's done (might be later today, might be tomorrow).

I'll aim to make it about 15 minutes - it could be shorter, but I intend to cover 3 different types of the most common CD design.

hi, how is going with tutorial? I will have a lot of free time in the weekend to make some CDs.
