Hello! Noob here (at least to this forum) I don't particularly like signing up for forums as I do not typically stay around long enough to do it (I think I have adult ADD) At any rate, I WANTED to sign up here, and take a breather ...to say thank you for such a kick ass app. It amazes me what people do.....and create ...at no charge. It truely is dumbfounding at times...sort of like tonight when I found this app. I had to make my wife check it out, and will def be showing it off to some friends tomorrow. Hats off to EVERYONE involved in this as well as those handling the cover art website (DJ, I noticed you don't like sole credit...so thanks to everyone that submitted there) There was a question above about donations. I DON"T typically, but I honestly would for this app. It is just that kick ass. This thing is almost perfect!
A few things (I have read SO much on this thread and on DJ's that I am not sure it was covered) This is more for the noobs like me.
1) This works just fine...have patience...and you may have to do a little legwork , but not NEAR the amount of legwork that went into creating this
2) If you start using this and already have the cover images on your SD card, it may look all fouled up (It did for me, and I almost changed my mind about using this)
I fixed this simply by deleting all the images I had previously saved, and had Cover Flow grab them all back.
3) I couldn't get the 3-D cover art pictures to work "stock"
From the first post "*Must be 160x224 PNG" ....he wasn't joking. Now the 3D images off
http://www.theotherzone.com/wii/ are 160X225
I re-sized one of the 3D images to the 160X224 size and it worked just fine. (I now have to decide which look I like better)
Now why is it almost perfect? I tried and tried and couldn't seem to find this (Possible suggestion for any future builds?)
I like being able to quickly see the following info:
How Many games are on the Hard drive
Used Space:
Free Space:
I know I can see this while using WBFS Manager, but it would be sweet to have access to this while using Cover Flow.
If the Games/Used Space/Free Space info is there, have patience with me...I really have read a lot of posts...and its late. If it isn't and you think you can incorporate it...well It would be PERFECT in my book (It really is now as it is)
Sorry for the long book...Just wanted to give my thanks, my experiences, and my suggestions...enough so I signed up here for this express purpose
You all have seriously done such a bang up job all around with this app and the covers site. Thanks for helping me to have the most bad-assed wii my buddys have seen (and the envy cuz most of them can barely turn a computer on)
Cheers!
