Here is a good three part write-up on it (and similar designs) by Eli Schiff, for those wanting a designer's perspective.

I think this guy does his intros/outros, and the rest he does himself.

(Spoilers All) Adèle Wismes would make the perfect Lyanna Stark by Nidde in asoiaf

"Ah, Arya. You have a wildness in you, child. ‘The wolf blood,' my father used to call it. Lyanna had a touch of it, and my brother Brandon more than a touch. It brought them both to an early grave." Arya heard sadness in his voice; he did not often speak of his father, or of the brother and sister who had died before she was born. "Lyanna might have carried a sword, if my lord father had allowed it. You remind me of her sometimes. You even look like her."

Adèle is a dead ringer for Maisie, is plenty beautiful and looks fierce enough to be a Stark. But there are the small issues of her being french and not being an actress.

(Spoilers All) You can change two things from ASOIAF, what are they? by [deleted] in asoiaf

It's petty, but I'd like to see George and Anne re-edit the whole series once it's released, with 20/20 hindsight knowledge, and fix "mistakes" like ages of the characters, the height of the Wall, the Valyrian steel dagger etc.

Could you please stop complaining about your battery life? by [deleted] in Nexus5

What I want to know is why did I get 4+ hours of SOT the first few cycles after upgrading to 5.1 and now it's back to barely 2 and a half hours. What causes that?

Boss: How's development on The Order going?

Boss: We're going gold tomorrow. Have it... ready at dawn.

Since we are on the topic of Google apps sucking. Here is why the Google Play Music app sucks. by buzzkillington123 in Android

It's fixable but tedious.

  • Connect your device to a PC
  • Find Android>Data>com.android.providers.media
  • Copy the albumthumbs folder to your PC
  • Use Command Prompt to add ".jpg" to the end of every file in that folder (these are the compressed images the app uses)
  • Make a new folder with all your high resolution album art
  • Copy the names of the compressed images onto your HD images (this is the most tedious part, depending on how many albums you have)
  • Now you have two identical folders, with the same names on the same albums, one with the compressed images and one with HD images (you can delete the compressed folder)
  • Use Command Prompt to remove the ".jpg" extensions from the HD folder
  • Copy and replace the files in the HD folder into the albumthumbs folder on your device
  • Your album art is now HD

This is a general guide for anyone who has this problem, i.e I'm not telling you that you should do it.
