haha, i'm actually doing the buttons as we speak.  nice job.  the only con with your mod is that you can't have the extras with kai enabled, which is why i added it as a separate button in information management.  though some people use kai, they still want the look of the old extras blade.  seriously though, sweeeet job.

the old extras blade looks just like when the kai is disabled in your mod except for the live button being there.  i was just saying some people like that look and still want kai enabled.

as for the effect, you need to include:

CODE
button-shadow


into your shadow blocks(if they aren't there, i didn't check).  that should give you that effect.  i have it in my mod which i plan on releasing tonite.  i'm just trying to add a new script to net apps.  i'm feeling lazy so i might not work on skinning it.

i'm hitting some obstacles with the next release, but i know people will be happy for the delay. wink.gif  if i can rush it, maybe tonite, but it's looking like tomorrow.

as for when kai is connected, it's just like the old extras blade.  if you hit the start button, you'll see kai controls near the top of the mc360 guide blade.

hey manturafs, do u happen to know which part of the code in the live.xml is for that XBMC LIVE logo on the xbmc button, i can't seem to find it, i want to shift it over a bit so its centered.

EDIT: not the one above the info the image on the button itself.

you can't change it.  if i remember correctly, it's hardcoded into the image of the button.  not just an image on top.
