A "Tip" for Audiosoft
I know you was looking for a solution to enlarge correctly the skin graphics of the now playing panel, because currently the texts are ruined when you
stretch the player...
Well, I have a solution!
You just need to enlarge the actual graphics in Photoshop using the "bicubic" resizing option. So eJukebox will not have to do this difficult job
anymore, instead it will just need to reduce them eventually. l get a very better result!

The actual panel when enlarged:
Not very good...

And the final result...
It's a screenshot of the real eJukebox, not a montage in Photoshop!

And no problem when you reduce the panel to its original size...

I hope that will help you to program the next version of eJukebox including the "resizable images" feature in the Now Playing panel. 
Unless you have already found a better solution, of course!

Pirk,
Thanks for the tip! It will help when designing skins so that they stretch nicely.
As for the Large covers in the Now Playing Panel...as you know the horizontal sizing works pretty good...I still need to do a little more work on the
vertical sizing of the now playing panel so that it works right with the other sizing abilities...after that allowing large covers will be easy.
