I agree, but it's very difficult to find a good backdrop for music. I'm using this one at the moment:

Perhaps a photoshop expert could make it a bit more 'music style' Big Grin

Another music background, not finished yet, just a test Wink

A jukebox, ofcourse! Why didn't i think of that Big Grin

Looks really nice

The camera background from SteveB looks good Big Grin

For me most of the backgrounds in T! are fine, I'd only change:

- The TV bg in the Home Screen
- The default bg while browsing Music (the colourful psychedelic one)
- Maybe the Settings bg

But of course I always am surprised by your creativity, the jukebox looks tasty. I'd emphasize more the covers and the machine front instead of the big tubes though.

this one's been mentioned quite a lot, so if anyone has a better backdrop, feel free to post it in the backgrounds thread
(it's an old post, but you can still use it to contribute your favourite backdrops.)

I can't seem to get this working. I've loaded the movie.png which works fine, but Im not clear on how to get the fanart to cycle with the image.
