For easy reference, here are my wishes and bug reports regarding now playing tab, some of which I already posted on the v3 GUI discussion thread.

Artist Picture/Album Color Mix/Large Album view
- Font setting for lyrics & artist bio should be consistent both for left and right main panel (main panel on Large Album view)
- Make sidebar player element available (know it's planned)
- Support row span setting and split value setting for track info panel just like those of track info element.
- Support display of web content via web links like v2.5 when web browser plugin is enabled

TM view
- When you're on a TM view, right sidebar shows its header bar only (http://i.imgur.com/qDaCGtE.png)

Album Color Mix view
- In my opinion this view would work best as a background for something else. Consider providing a set of options on what to draw over that background: artist picture, album cover, visualizer.

Just noticed sidebar player option was already added. Thanks!
I think that option needs to be added to customize panel dialog too like other options under right sidebar menu (that's why I failed to notice it for days).

Please, can you tell me how to show a visualizer so big?

for the Album Colour Mix view, it now defaults to also showing a smaller artist picture in the main panel.
That can be disabled from the configuration menu/ Main Panel/ ...

Looks much better than the empty background. Thanks!
