Changes: Imlib2 is used for rendering. True transparency and gradients are supported, and no more drawing errors are produced. Colors can now be configured on the fly with instant results. Rendering of bevels is supported.


Changes: A segfault that occurred on startup was fixed along with a problem where GNOME and KDE icons were overdrawn at startup and when quitting. A workaround was implemented for cases where XMMS had problems with the plugin being enabled on startup. Drawing issues involving falsely drawn peaks and bars were fixed. The data manipulation config variables were made stereo capable and an experimental "display" config was added for specifying the X server.


Changes: Stereo support was added, with both channels drawn and configured independently. Drawing errors (in the form of shadows) were fixed. Many critical fixes were made on configuration updates.


Changes: The plugin now can be configured by editing the xmms config file while running rather than only during compilation. Some cleanups were made.


Changes: This release adds configurable peaks and shadow (not affecting peaks), strange optimization of the drawing function, mirrored frequencies on orientations 2+3 (bass is now on bottom), and enhancements to the README, and removes About and Configure as they aren't functional yet.
