MPC's Background Logos

I think it's fair to say that the background images are pretty average looking at best especially when it's a modern player supporting modern video technologies.

I think it is time the built in logos got updated with nicer, more modern ones.

Here's one that I put together and am currently using:

I know the background logo is seldom seen by most but it's something that improves the visual appeal of MPC nonetheless.

Perhaps a community effort to create a few new logos that could be patched into the ongoing dev builds?

That's a lot better than what's currently available. There are some good ones available, but they're sized badly, so don't look as good as they could.

I would personally love to see non static images. IE a screen saver type logo that would also kick in if a media file is paused too long.

Please add a feature request to the tracker to support different backgrounds from file.

Add a seperate request to allow random/changing backgrounds.

The example in the first post cannot be added to mpc-hc svn for obvious reasons
