First off, thank you so much for this great program. It has become indispensible for me.

What I would really love is a way for CAD to release the track information and art when the player is closed, but still remain on the desktop. I would love to exit my player (foobar in my case) and have CAD sit there on my desktop with a "No Cover" image or something like that, and empty text, and use it as the launcher for my music application.

Does that make sense? Basically it would serve as a "super" desktop icon that launches my music player, then responds to the art. Right now I can leave it there and use it that way, but it still shows the art and information for the song I was playing when I quite foobar.

Carlos, I think an option to "Keep album art for last played song when player is closed" would be the ideal thing here, since people want to keep the last album art on CAD, and some people don't.
