♥ About Flele

★ What is Flele?
- Simply put, Flele is an open source animated desktop mp3 player. What sets it apart from other such applications is that its skin takes the form of a character that will sit in the corner of your screen. Because it is animated it will look as though the character is singing to you as music plays.

★ What are shells?
- 'Shell' is the term used for the different skins, or characters, that you can apply to your Flele. This is the image that will display on your screen.

---

★ What can you do with Flele?
- The primary function of Flele is to act as an mp3 player though most shells also contain dress up options so you can also customize your characters too.
