More Options

You can change the size of the album covers from the default setting of 130x130.
-a imagesize
for example: -
-a 100
gives you album tiles 100x100.
Collage Options
You can specify how many album covers are used in the collage by using the following flag: -
-n numberofalbumcovers
Example: -
-n 60
would use 60 album covers.
Glass Options
You can choose to display more than 7 albums in the Glass mode by also using the -n flag.

The size of the covers will decrease as you increase the number.
