Here is a preview shot of my new skin "LiveWire". It is just about done, all I need is to add the overlay to the thumbnail to make it circular. I would like to get some feedback on what can be improved or changed.

LiveWire 1.0

Come on, you can't find anything wrong with it? Heh, I guess that could be a good thing, but I just don't want to release 20 different versions like on my first skin. I want to get everything squared away for one release. Oh and for people who had problems reading the font on the last skin. I added a black shadow glow color to the back of this font so it is much more clear to read.

Lol, but Mountain Dew LiveWire is orange. That would totally kill my summer vibe

But a widescreen version....maybe if it was requested enough.

are the movies/thumbnails stretched?

Yesterday I tried a skin (forgot the name) and the preview movies were stretched, it was ugly.

I am not sure what you should change. I like the skin as it is...

You have any ideas yourself?

Nah the movies are not stretched, that is just a widescreen shot during the madden clip. If you downloaded my other skin, you will know what the thumbnail will eventually look like. I tested it out on my bigscreen and everything seems to look good. I may just keep everything as it is.

Looks great dude... I'd definately use it.

Well I am waiting on the overlay for the thumb, then this baby is completely ready for release. I really feel this is a step up from SecurityX. The skin just looks better in every way. The newsfeed support really adds to it and the more readable font helps alot. Anyone who liked Security X should love this one. Hopefully

I've used Security X since I've been using MXM an I love it... but this is Nice. I like the orange, nice break from the X-box Green everywhere. Keep it up... THX Going to miss SecurityX.

It should be going up here soon. It;s completed and sent to KoldFuzion to test and look over. If all goes well he will have it posted quite soon.
