I think I found the difference between the v17 and v18 skin.  If you go to my v18 mod folder and look for xml/MusicVisualization.xml you can change line 43 from:

Code:

<aspectratio>scale</aspectratio>

to:

Code:

<aspectratio>keep</aspectratio>

I think that will revert back the behavior.  I've been pretty consistent about not wanting to change much of the default Estuary behavior in my mod except for the home screen customization, so I need to decide if I'm going to consider this a bug and fix it or just leave it.  I just hate the idea that any time I update my mod that you'd have to manually make that change.  So maybe there's a new option to add to the mod.  '-)   

 Ok I changed it as suggested.  It does change the behavior back to the original.  

There is however another problem.  The images are displayed on top of the fan art, and the fan art always displays around the edges. 

With it set to scale you just can't see the fan art because each image covers the whole screen.  In previous versions the fan art displayed as the first image and then the slide show started.  

OK, now I feel like I really am going to have to do this as a setting.  But here's something else to try.  Right above the multiimage control you just modified is another one that looks like this:

Code:

            <control type="image">
                <aspectratio>scale</aspectratio>
                <fadetime>400</fadetime>
                <animation effect="fade" start="0" end="100" time="400">WindowOpen</animation>
                <animation effect="fade" start="100" end="0" time="300">WindowClose</animation>
                <texture background="true">$INFO[Player.Art(fanart)]</texture>
            </control>

Try deleting all that.  I'm pretty sure that's what is showing the single fanart in the background of your non-full size images. 

I deleted the code as suggested, and that does get rid of the fanart in the background.   However now the fan art never displays as the first image.  Instead the last image of the previous artist is displayed briefly,  and then it goes into the new slide show.
