Avatar Factory is a bash script that creates eye candy shortcuts for music albums, photo albums, movie files, and more...
Avatar Factory is a bash script that creates shortcuts (Desktop Entry files) with eye candy icons that represent music albums, photo albums, DVD films, youtube videos, and more. When clicked the avatars can perform different actions as launching a video, start playing some music (compatible with many music players), open a folder, etc...
They can be viewed in Nautilus, Thunar or any application that support Desktop Entry files.
