Thursday is my favorite day of the week: New Anime Day. Today's even more special though. Once I see the structure of the skinning system I should be able to start sketches.
On a similar note. Can the buttons be switched? (They might not work well with certain backgrounds)
I'm also wondering about the placeholder images that show up when there's no image for a person or movie.

Nope. The buttons and the scrollbars are drawn by the OS. They can't be skinned. You'll only be able to change the font of the buttons.

Yep, I thought about it, and you can change the color of the placeholder.

Bmp buttons ? Do you mean that I should draw my own custom buttons instead of using the system buttons ? Personally, I don't like this idea very much. The system buttons always look better, and the program shows several system dialogs, which of course have system buttons.

Stef will be happy
When he made the screenshot, I remember that he told me how much he liked the result with the bricks mixing seamlessly.

sorry, I meant can the current bmp buttons be switched. e.g. ratings, play, wish, etc

I figured there was some joker behind it. Didnt seem like coincidence.

Ok, the icons. No, they can't be switched, only made bigger.
If one day we have a set of better icons, we'll replace the current ones.

I'm happy to announce that Coollector Movie Database has been updated on the Mac App Store.
For several reasons, the Mac App Store version wasn't updated for a long time, but now that everything's settled, it should stay as up to date as Apple's review process will make it possible.
On a side note, I now have a twitter account:

With the release of version 3.23.2, Coollector just got a new look, thanks to a new default skin. I hope you'll like it.
But if you preferred the old skin, you can find it in the Skin Selector as "Legacy Blue".

55 mb update, isnt that a wee bit more than usual?
Has there been some major update, or is my connection being jacked by some unknown hacker?

Yep. This new version has more movies + more videos + way more persons (substantially improved the casts, especially the series casts).
kakashi wrote:my system says version 3.23.3
I forgot to update the list of changes. Is that what you mean ?
Doesn't the title bar say "Coollector Movie Database v3.23.4" ?
kakashi wrote:same as download.com...
The program yet hasn't been updated on download.com. That can take some time.
You must download from the link on our homepage.

No, i didn't update as yet. I just meant that I thought I might've already had the latest version.
