Okay, I bit.
And It's pretty freakin' rad. Very well done, mate. Just wish it did it when the song changes automatically as well.

Awesomez! I agree about the auto change thing ^ also the "hole" in the center of the disk has my art overlaid... intentional?
Edit: looks like someone beat me too it ![]()

I get a black box around it while it spins... and I still have the overlay issue. Otherwise, It's awesome and I look forward to updates!

This is really cool. Great Job ![]()
The center of the CD still needs fixing though.
Also I know this is gonna sound insane, but could someone make a skin
that looks like a turntable and the record spins when the song is playing?
I can't imagine wanting to do that, but if anyone is looking for ideas...

Big Update.. Now the small hole is black (Bowtie has cache? i have to change all the png names to take effect
), the spinning is working when iTunes change the song! A little better cd overlay!
Download or Re-Download from: http://ch405.net/bowtie/CD.zip
Thnx all for the feedback!

I really like the idea, but this theme is really broken.

Re: [Bowtie Theme] CD (with a little trick)
nice to see the animation working so smooth, looks very good ![]()
When bowtie was released I had the idea for a theme to make a turntable and let the vinyl spin on it, with some LED lights etc.
But I lack knowledge about html and other coding
so pls someone steal my idea and actually do it ![]()
