I like that idea. I was looking at the playergui stuff to see if i can replace the menus i was using so that i could get at least a Site Name at the top of the page and then the list of items. Then was going to add a subscreen to the headline to show the full headline (sometimes they get truncated) and the description. But your idea sounds good too. > - make it possible to get a blank screen from the skin. Maybe the > plugin wants to display some stuff, independed of skin settings > with no menu at all. I was thinking of doing alot of the precious stuff with Rob's gui code and a region scroller class he has or just by calling up a pygame surface. If this approach gives us more flexibility then go ahead but not sure after we blank the screen how we will draw on it other than creating a pygame surface over the top. -- Mike Ruelle [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://world.std.com/~mruelle/ ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by:ThinkGeek Welcome to geek heaven. http://thinkgeek.com/sf _______________________________________________ Freevo-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/freevo-devel
