A Lick Of Paint

There's many benefits to developing AllDay DJ in Java. These include the usual things like cross-platform support on a whim (I'm developing and testing on both Windows and Linux).

Also, the Swing toolkit (the library I use to build the user interface) comes with support for "Look and Feel". This leads me to one of the more frivolous benefits - the ability to change how AllDay DJ looks on a whim.

After a bit of mucking about on the internet I found the NIMROD look and feel. After a bit of tweaking, this is what AllDay DJ 3 now looks like:




I'm sure you'll agree, it's much easier on the eye.
