I've just added a shutdown feature, so the juke can be configured to shut down windows.  This should make it possible to run the jukebox as a shell, although I haven't tested it.  The way it works is you have to both set SystemShutdownEnabled=True and exit the jukebox either through the new BTN_SHUTDOWN or by closing the window or pressing the power button to request a shutdown.  Exiting via BTN_EXIT will not shut down the system even if SystemShutdownEnabled is enabled.

Is pulling artwork out of mp3 on the horizion, or should we start looking for a program to do that for us?

It's not something I've really looked into.  Theoretically, it's easy; once I have a song loaded, the tag gives me a pointer and size to the embedded image data, and if it's a JPG or BMP, I just point to it and display it.  However, I need access to the image when the song is not loaded, meaning I'd have to go through and extract all of the images to disk during the indexing phase, which sort of screws up the point of embedding the images in the file in the first place.

This may be something that happens in the future; but it's not on my short-term To-Do list; thus, if this is a feature that you need, it's probably good to look into an external utility do do it for now. Sorry about that!

If you were going to add the feature next week, I wasn't going to bother extracting the images.   http://mp3imagetagextr.sourceforge.net/ is available to do it if anyone needs to extract them, I just hate to junk up my folders with jpg files.
