Because i see import migration scripts but i don't know what it is

When I made the original "Thumbs" & "Now playing" scripts, I was very lazy when it came
to creating folder names to save images in. I created one folder per artist using the
foobar2000 $crc32 title formatting function which created a bunch of randomly numbered
folders. These are stored inside a folder named "wsh_lastfm" inside your foobar2000
profile.

This new script creates new folders using the actual artist name so this means it won't
recognise any images that you have previously saved. I know people have
built up large collections of art they won't want to lose which is why I've created this
script. It checks all artists in your foobar2000 library and then matches them against
the old folders and moves them into a new folder named "wsh_data" inside your foobar2000
profile. Now when you import the new "thumbs.txt" or "now playing.txt" into a panel, it
should display all your previous images just fine.

At the moment, this script will ignore any old folders that were created by playing artists
that are not in your library.

Before using "migrate.txt" in a panel, make sure you backup your "wsh_lastfm" folder.
This script will destroy it's contents so you'll want a copy just incase this does not work
as expected.

the instructions for that install are no different. also, you seem to have a stray floating rectangle in your script???

function CalcNewImgSize (img, dstW, dstH, srcW,srcH, strch, kar, fill) {        // Calculate image's new size and offsets in new width and height range. 
	if (!img) return;
	if (!srcW) srcW = img.width;
	if (!srcH) srcH = img.height;
	if (strch==undefined) strch = Properties.Image.Stretch;
	if (kar==undefined) kar = Properties.Image.KeepAspectRatio;
    if (fill==undefined) fill = Properties.Image.Fill;
    
	var size;
    if(fill){
        size = {x:0, y:0, w:dstW, h:dstH};
        if(srcH/srcW < dstH/dstW)
            size.w = Math.ceil(srcW*dstH/srcH);
        else
            size.h = Math.ceil(srcH*dstW/srcW);
    } else if (strch) {
        size = {x:0, y:0, w:dstW, h:dstH};
		if (kar) {
			size.w = Math.ceil(srcW*dstH/srcH);
			if (size.w>dstW) {
				size.w = dstW;
				size.h = Math.ceil(srcH*dstW/srcW);
			}
		}
	} else {
        size = {x:0, y:0, w:srcW, h:srcH};
		if (kar) {
			if (srcH>dstH) {
				size.h = dstH;
				size.w = Math.ceil(srcW*dstH/srcH);
			}
			if (size.w>dstW) {
				size.w = dstW;
				size.h = Math.ceil(srcH*dstW/srcW);
			}
		} else {
			size.w = Math.min(srcW, dstW);
			size.h = Math.min(srcH, dstH);
		}
	}
	size.x = Math.floor((dstW-size.w)/2);
	size.y = Math.floor((dstH-size.h)/2);
	return size;
}

from a quick glance at that, it already appears to support different display options like fill, stretch and keep aspect. are you sure there aren't any options on the right click menu or in the panel properties?

finally, i've uploaded a full customisation page. it's bound to be full of typos and errors.

http://marc2003.x10host.com/customisation

it doesn't cover topics like fetching stuff off the internet yet. i'll get round to it oneday. 

i don't mind helping out with little code snippets but i'm not even going to attempt to look at that.

what you can do is look for instances of FillSolidRect in the code.

Does someone know some other biography site beside wiki and last.fm?
I try to use MTV bio, but they don't have a huge database..
