Is there anyway to view the album art alongside the now playing list when you "minimize" mediamonkey?

only when you use the floating / mini player and the skin you use has been made to view album art.

most of the skins being made have been designed to show album art with the mini player.. some of mine do not do that.

but there is no way to put album art on the micro player that goes on the taskbar.

...and if you could it would be, umm, micro and you would not be able to see it

I think the real question was:
when the now-playing list is out by itself, for example, with some miniplayers, can I have album art with it?

I'm pretty sure the answer is no.

Edited for stupidity.
Hey, at least I'm honest.

no your not stupid.

but the answer is yes you can have album art with the mini players, IF the skinner has told the mini/ floating players ini file where to put the album art and if they have made the player big enought to have a space for album art.

but the micro player as mentioned is way to small for album art.

If you're talking about MM2.5, then no, there is no way to, although you could try something like this: http://www.closetosoftware.com/?s=cdartdisplay

Thanks for the replies. I'm sorry for my lack of detail.

I wasn't refering to the micro player.

I guess I was asking if there was a floating album art display that can be displayed alongside the floating now playing screen when the MM is minimized.

Also, I have MM 2.5.

nohitter151, thanks for the link. I think that might actually work for me.
