Win Changing graphic for Album with no art

Question 
Hello,

First and foremost: This is a great skin. Thanks for all the effort that has gone into creating it.

I have a question: I am lacking covers for certain albums in my music collection and I was wondering how, if it is possible, do I go about changing the default image that is displayed for albums with no art?

by downloading GIT version, changing to eden branch (if you want to have stable repo version) and exchanging media/default.... .png

Thanks Phil - that was a swift retort. :-)

Just to clarify - I'm on version 3.5 on Eden: Would I still need to obtain the GIT version in this case? Do I need to build it?

yes. skins downloaded from repo save their images in a compressed file which you cannot edit directly.
this is why you need the uncompressed GIT version.

you don´t need to pack them. doesn´t really bring any performance boost.

Understood - I've just tried and left them uncompressed. Works a treat.

A double-thumbs up for the excellent support.
