Adding "sticky" embeddable player
I think it would be awesome to give users a sticky footer option for the the embeddable player. Basically the goal would be, while you scroll the player follows the user at the bottom of the screen. Very similar to what they have on the live365 site. I've included an example of a station in San Francisco that has that implemented it. I'm not sure how hard this would be to design but I think it would be great addition to the widget features.

John FarrellTo be honest, this can be achieved with very simple CSS. Simply wrapping the player in a div with the CSS position:fixed;bottom:0;
However... The current players would look odd down there given they are so big. In a support ticket, I suggested having a 'minimal' or 'narrow' player option that was very slimline with all controls next to each other horizontally. Fix this to the bottom with the above CSS and hey presto, that would look great. Likewise it can sit in the header of the website. The current players aren't designed with this positioning in mind but with modern web design this is a must in my book.
