Name of a particular skin element

[Skoop]

I want to edit a skin to change the color of one thing, the color of the background panel that lies underneath all the album covers in album view.  I've trial-and-errored several <element id's> that I thought would be likely candidates, but I've not hit it. 

Point me to it, please.

That would be:
<element id="Content[Artwork].Body.Default" bg="0,255,0" fg="255,0,0" />

[Skoop]

Hmmm.  This skin has two existing references to artwork:

<element id="Content[Artwork]" />

and

<element id="ArtworkPanel" />

What's my strategy here, edit one of those, or create one like you posted?

I am pretty sure those two don't work anymore. I have set them to 0,255,0 in some skins of mine, and never encountered bright green popping up anywhere.
The element I gave you works for sure.

Now that I've recovered from that brief spell of epilepsy that came on me once that screen came up like that, I can confirm that inserting that element into the list does indeed change the color of the artwork panel background. 

Thanks for the help.

Yet it is a good trick to quickly find what the entries do when you have doubts.

A couple of years back I created an Excel sheet, which can compare your xml file entries against all the entries I was able to find and evaluate on their working or being defunct.
It will also show you any possible elements that are missing from your xml file.

Ah, yes, thnx. I indeed abandoned SpiderOak a while back.
I will create a new link before long...

Thanks for updating the link.  I have downloaded the file and all I can say is "WOW!"  That must've taken a lot of work to produce.  I don't develop skins.  The one under my name is mostly a modification from a previously existing skin.  But I do like seeing what they're all about.  And this worksheet will help towards that end.
Thanks again.
