woah, why didn't I see this?

I don't use windowblinds or stylexp, but nojac is right about just arranging everything. I don't usually have the visualsation going, but I like to show it off for screen shot porn.
I do use a few custom backgrounds that I think I included in the download, but I prefer to extract them and have them scroll with my list so as to maintain the spacing.
it usually just looks like this when I start it up,

but sometimes the album art doesn't show, so I have it in the album list (but my external isn't connected right now, so there is no music to be seen
I only really use the websearch panels for tagging or youtube surfing, and I just like the monkeyrok stuff on the right, because it lets me know what tagging inconsistencies I have.
I don't really know what to say
it's all just trial and error
thanks so much for the respect and I hope to get MM3 up and runningas soon as I do a serious overhaul on my laptop

PEACE

oh yeah, and by set up to look good I meant that some small things are hidden from the screen cap, like the inconsistencies with scroll buttons (some look like a blue pill, while others like a painted brick) and a pretty screen is surprisingly useless when it comes to managing my collection (adding music, tagging files, and learning about the artists)

cheers nojac. He's also using Style XP or Windows blinds or something. I'll try and out cool him once I get the hang of it!! :D

The short version:

1. Install the skin from http://www.mediafire.com/?1duxthho5mz

2. Install all the scripts Aidan is using from the Scripts forum. (BrowseByArt 4.9, WebSearch Panels 1.3, EmbeddedVisualisation, MonkeyRok 2.3, FavouriteNodes 1.1, TweakMonkey 1.0a,
StartupNode 1.1, AutoAlbumDJ 2.6, ScrobblerDJ 1.26)

3. Move the components around until you are happy :)

But as Aidan says: "this shot is totally set up to look cool " It is not the setup you will use to manage your collection....
