sorry, another update...

IPB Image


added borders to submenus including fileman, new logos, the other one's shine gave me a headache tongue.gif, added transparent underlay to guide (thanks edwin), was accidently missing from last version, means you can see the menus under the guides when you bring em up.

download here

edit: forgot to mention, updated screens on first page so you can see how it looks now.

But how do you make it so the background doesn't go dark when you open the guide blade?

it's his "secret" recipe tongue.gif

Sweet! It looks better now.

One idea though:
maybe you could change the blade background colors so it matches the Xbox 360 colors?
eg. media is blue, games is green, xbmc live is orange

Hi, even though i wanted it to be orange on boot (media being the default 'home') to match the only beta screen we've seen  ^i now agree, so if i update it again ill change the colours back to the normal arrangement.

You can set whichever blade you want to show on bootup in settings.

yes i know, but media is still the default (its also my home screen). wink.gif

anyway heres some matching splash's, would be a real nice touch if the skin and or theme controlled the splash like the startup sound:

Could you possibly Release this with all orange backgrounds? I would be very greatfull, I think it would be a little more like the actual beta you took the idea from, Especialy since the only photo of that beta is orange.
Please rolleyes.gif  Thank you smile.gif

those are the only changes. if you want it, its here: as xpr

also heres the unpacked files with big res logos/splashes.  unpacked image files

so now you can have all orange backgrounds if you want tongue.gif
