As promised here comes the latest buil, Beta 2.
This is a complete build including all updates.

The skin is now about 98% fully skinned i would say.

Todo:
- Fix fonts used so they has full charset
- Add support PAL 4x3, NTSC,720p and 1080p
- Integrate some extra scripts into the skin.
- Clean up XML code and unused png files
- Skin the last 2 percent of the graphics and xml.
- Streamline some gui and text elements trough the skin.

Install instructions:

Download the skin here:

NB! The skin only supports standard PAL 16x9 at the moment. Using any other
resoultion will make everything look wrong !

Some new Screens:

also, is there a way to change how files are highlighted in my files.  in testing the skin, i couldn't really tell what files/folder were being highlighted.  the only way you can tell is if you have the filesize showing, which isn't default on folders.  just some things that i caught.

Manturafs:
Thanks for the feedback. Gonna fix everything you have reported. Great
to get feedback on those things. Since when you edit in the pace im going
its hard to spot everything yourself

Also as an added goody i have editet the "XBMC scripts" so it
matches my skin:

You can download the script here:
NB! completely delete your old "xbmcScripts" folder first !

hey this skin is really growing on me. I use it as the default for my bedrooms xbox. Good job and keep up the good job.

[theboxhead]

Sorry for no updates. Real life like family and work
has kept me busy.
Last week i was at a kraftwerk concert here in oslo norway. That was my second Kraftewerk
concert and what an experience !! For those who dont know... Kraftwerk along
with some few others pionered electronic music and sampling. They even built
their own sampling devices

Also i have become and uncle 4 days ago.

So all in all its been a week full of events.

But dont worry. This skin wont die. Im dedicated to make this skin into a final version.

I just hope you guys dont give this skin up. It takes time and im all alone so be patient

what do i hear, excuses all the time..  

for gods sake, quit your job, kick out the wife, quit spending time with the family.. then this skin will be done faster ..  

oh and also, stop sleeping, that is just a waste of time too, and food can be run in the mixer, drink with straw so that you can have both hands on the computer..  





  other than that, skin is starting to look good.. keep up the good job, take your time to make it right
(regarding the stuff above: obviously i am kidding) ..
and congrats to being uncle

When I click on programs, nothing comes up?  Is this just mine.  It does work with the latest build of xbmc, right?
