[idea] amaroK playlist with album covers
Source (link to git-repo or to original if based on someone elses unmodified work): Add the source-code for this project on opencode.net
It could be nice if amaroK shows the cover in the entire albums of the playlist. I'm speaking just about entire albums, but not about partial or not organized albums in the playlist. So the only case I mean is when the user selects and album in the "Collection" tab and dropes it in the playlist (or press "Add to playlist"). If the user adds another artist's song inside an album the cover simply dissapears.
The purpose of this is to show easily the differents albums in the playlist and recognize them faster. For example it could be useful when loading two albums of the same artist in the playlist: it takes some time to me to recognize both of them if they are together.
Note: If you like the idea you can vote for it in KDE-bugs:

2.0: The idea has changed, instead of colorize the albums now amaroK shows the cover in entire albums of the playlist.

i like the clean look also it would be great if amarok would use the same qt stuff that xmms and audacious use so you can theme the player completely instead of just the window to the left that displays the album art and collection.

Have anyone tried the new iTunes? If not, take a look at this:

(However, this idea is more advanced :P)

So I decided to improve the idea.
Maybe you are right and I should create a new mockup.
PD: I'd like to know all your opinions, which one is better?

Maybe just a column in the playlist, that shows the colours? And then you can choose the "highlight" - sort after album, artist, genre...
Just an idea. I'll maybe make a mockup later.

Also, an amaroK theme is something more specific: a theme just for the sidebar on the left (which is actually a KHTML page), using CSS and sometimes images.
"Mockup" or "idea" in the title would be a good idea though.
