In Response To: a future image window... (Karl Linne)

I like these ideas, but lets think out of the box:

How about a screen saver that could "listen" to SlinkServ and then display the coorosponding image or HTML document listed in the database. Since CDJ is moving onto SlinkServ, someone could write this as a separate project.

A screen saver would be nice since it would trigger automatically if the user is not interfacing with CDJ. Some possible features of a Screen saver could be:

- Display the image a different screen sizes (1/4, 1/2 or full screen)
- Display the Artist, CD and Track Title in a border region on the top or bottom of the screen
- Display an associated HTML document, or use a "style sheet" to create a display of image, titles and lyrics
-Even be set to display a random set of images that fit the "mood" of the music (ie. Ansel Adams pics with classical music or Maplethorpe images with Marilyn Manson!)

I would volenteer to do some interface design (its in my background), but I don't have the time to write the code. Anyone have experience writing screen savers?
