Very nice. I like that it's not overly complicated looking. Sharp and clean.

Why not put xbox nickname in the orb?  That way everyone can have their name biggrin.gif

i can do that!

Skin looks awesome! This will be my next default skin as soon as I get home. Does the current download let you use your MXM XBOX nickname as the name in the orb?

Again sweet job on the skin!  beerchug.gif

yes. but some names that are too long will overlap. it may have to be adjusted. i set this to my nick witch is 8 letters. your name should work perfectly.

I just installed the new skin. Couple of comments/constructive criticism:

The X logo on the left gets cut off in half. Would it be possible to scoot it over just a tad for us HDTV users? The rest of the skin gets overscanned fine and is nicely centered.

Would it be possible to overlay the thumbnails where the lightning and nickname is? I kinda like having thumbs. If not there, maybe a partialy transparanant thumb under where the menu items are?

Also, maybe try adding some kind of sound when moving up and down through the menus.

All in all the skin looks great!  beerchug.gif

ill see what i can do for you.

Sweet! Thanks for the thumbnail! A couple more things:

Some of my thumbnails don't show up in your skin. They all show fine in the other skins I've been using previously. I'm using MXM_THUMB.*** All the cached thumbs in the games menu work though but not the MXM_THUMB's.

Also, how about adding the Green "X" xbox startup wmv as a default underay for the thumb?  wink.gif

The "X" logo on the left is still being cut off.  sad.gif

Yea, this is an awesome skin. I love it. This will probrably be my default for a while. I kinda changed it a little bit, just to personalize it a little bit, but nothin big. I also changed the way the menu works. The default setting in the xml file only has like 2 items on at a time. heres a pic of what I edited it to.....

that does look cool. but, it would look cooler with better fonts. play around with it as much as you want.
