Wow, Kartoffel, if you put up a 1920x1080 shot that looks similar to that, I'll make it my wallpaper.

just the background?
(it's a streched 512² image)

@Kartoffel, very nice effect and when can i touch the media player?

Btw, if you are looking for some nice animated backgrounds, just check this http://videohive.net and http://footage.shutterstock.com

my favorite:
Headphones Playing Music and Equalizer (EQ40)
Disco lights scene loop
beaming blue squares musical loopable background
loopable background blue shine sound level meter equalizer

@sivan, it looks getting better, it's the new shade-c evo for shadows?

Including the visualisation on-top. It looks really cool

thanks, but I think I'll use simple images as backgrounds.

small update:
added a better background gradient and the song position is now displayed at the bottom (doesn't work properly for some songs...)


also, the song information (name, artist) only show the first 30 letters

I think that the background really should be animated, too.

maybe I'll add a slow and smooth animation to the gradient, but I don't want to use something detailed.

Don't add any details, just animate the colors, make them change smoothly or something like that.

looks realy great, kartoffel ! i also think, there shouldn´t be any details in the background. maybe the title in the bottom left, the tracktime in the middle and some buttons for play, stop, pause, loop or something else

Few days ago i remembered my old Digging/DK Imp AI demo i did a year ago.

Instead of just digging, the worker can now claim floors and walls by their own. And instead on stopping to work when a task was unreachable(game did a system halt) it now postpones those tasks and retries them later.
