Nocturne is a skin mod heavily based on lastFoodly by Kabuki by me, dsync89. This is my second skin following Amadeus.

Dude you must have WAY too much time on your hands.  Seriously though - awesome work.  Here's my complaint!   ;)

Last winter I spent many hours learning and experimenting with a whole range of fb2k configs - some of the names I remember are catrox, dark one, silent night, nuala....   It started innocently enough with Columns UI, then it was ELPLaylist, and before I knew it I was spending hours working through Panel Splitters and WSH Panel Mod and the marc2003 scripts and next thing I know I'm trying to learn how how objects and functions work, jscript, and so on. It was all very entertaining and educational but eventually I decided I wasn't really getting anywhere insofar as actually making a functional music player for myself. So I too a break for a couple months to just pay attention to how I actually listen to music and figure out what functionality I actually need.

So a few days ago I come back the world of fb2k skins and I know what I need to do. I have a plan: simplicity will be the key - after all, I have a very specific way of accessing my music collection, so I will cater to that and leave out all the other bells and whistles I never actually use. And then I see your Nocturne 1.1. Two days later I'm right back in the deep end with way more complexity than I need or want. But it just looks SO good.....   Sigh.   So far though, it seems to actually *also* be functional, which is even more impressive.  So once more into the brink - crawling through skin-code trying to tweak this, remove that, and make everything just exactly perfect (for my own use) without breaking things too badly.  Totally going against my whole plan of Keeping It Simple, dSync89.....

If things work out I'll definitely drop a little something in your Paypal box....
