icons and what they mean

Following are all the possible icon / buttons you'll see, and what each one does. Note that these icons are specific to this image set (as chosen in "admin->preferences"). A different image set will have different icons, but they should perform the same function.

Icons are context sensitive; that is, they appear where they "make sense." Also, some features may have been turned off by your administrator, and you may therefore not see some of the icons listed below.

	bump up	moves a song up in the play order.
	bump down	moves a song down in the play order.
