Title: X360 Skin Bp
Post by: renz0r on July 29, 2005, 08:36:00 AM
awesome I love the tab's, look a lot less clutterd, and seems you found the perfect font as well..

cant wait

I love the tabs as well.  What I didn't like about the tabs on the other skin was that they didn't actually 'flip'...per say.  Unfortunately I'm at work and can't test this until tonight.  I love the look from that screen so far though.

DOH!!!  See what happens when I try reading, typing, and working on the phone all at the same time.  My little brain gets all confused.  jester.gif

I saw the d/l for the rar and sort of jumped the gun.

Time to look at the rest of the screenies now.

And by flipping, I meant for the page to move position with each tab...as it should.  They really nailed it right with that Nexgen skin...I just don't use that dash.

The only advantage over other skins is that  you can go from pics to movies without going to home at any time.
Title: X360 Skin Bp
Post by: BritneysPAIRS on July 29, 2005, 05:19:00 PM
You could change background pics to be animated or static, Ill choose all new ones soon or someone can suggest. If you understood skinning you would see the way it operates is alot diff and in operation its alot different to use also skins are limited by the CVS and can only have different options if it is coded I have spent some time getting features into CVS that are used in skin Eg timed visuals and Network button dissapearing with no Network, also got Opening window slectable in GUI so it can open to any folder not just home because home isnt really needed on this skin much (and yes its like Next Gen in operation but for media and prettier I believe )

Anyway I hope KotiX has had a nice day off cause now Ill need to come together with him to see what we can put together.

PS thanks to GemiServer for all the great features made CVS

Anyway I havent spent much time but seems people like it so I will spend the time now. What id like is this any

1 Top 3 things each person would like to see. I will look at each case but if its common id say it will go in, if not ill give reason why not.

2 Background pics people think could work this could include animated gifs.

3 Anyone that knows what they are doing with making xmls to convert over to widescreen and NTSC, I can do this and will do this but help directed right can speed the process, I would like to keep fixs in house with me and KotiX for a while as it gets out of control and can be managed better.

 When skins out properly I would encourage Mods to pop up anywhere, many BAD I bet, but out of the fire will come some gems im sure. Everything including layered PSDs will be released for public. So dont complain about it being locked at the moment its to control stuff if you want it in we can talk about it no worries.

Cheers anyone I will let you guys suggest now for a few days and Friday night ill make another 20percent progress on skin im planing on and sort though thought and impliment any good ideas smile.gif

Tsharkou I notice your using my vis presets..... ive updated things added a fast and a cool lot and renamed and set ratingup now
Title: X360 Skin Bp
Post by: j_guzzler on August 02, 2005, 05:57:00 PM
Here are things Id like to see:

1) A little sub menu for shares/bookmarks. Explanation:  Rightnow when you go into my videos, it goes directly into the bookmarked section (in my case its movies on the PC), and if you want to pick something from a different you hit back and see all the bookmarked shares, now what i am talking about is kind of a toggable little submenu, kinda like some skins display the scripts, press a button and a little transparent list comes up that you can choose from, this way the bookmarks can be selected.

2)For back ground I think a mixture of static and gif would be great, some ideas would be if you had a pic of a tv in the background, you would have a gif image running in the tv....or maybe a mosaic of pictures that are all gifs, they all start once the other is finished).

3) if there is room, maybe weather on every single page, like in the bottom left corner, and also track/album info as well if playing.

4)...well i have some more ideas, but the wife is saying dinners ready so will add more later....lol

Post by: BritneysPAIRS on August 03, 2005, 05:01:00 PM
Quote = Only buttons in Pics sorry about this but there is going to be some changes to standard layout abit and it would effect all button poisitions, next release maynot have these yet. Depends on KotiX for that at moment. Next one this weekend should have better home page. Slighty resized thumbpanel. And alot more of the little things fixed. Then it will need new backgrounds that change in home and buttons (about 1 nights work) then NTSC 16by9 etc about 3 nights work id say (anyone can help with NTSC/PAL fixing if they want)

blink.gif which may or may not be possible?

When sorting through the Movies view.

Instead of seeing just a bunch of ICONS is there any way to like split the screen so whatever Icon you are hovering over displays some taged info from IMDB.  Like the Movie summary - run time - rating / number of votes - cast /etc ....    

I've always wanted to be able to view the IMDB info and launch the movie directly from that screen  cool.gif  

Possible or not - I'm Looking forward to seeing the finial project.   beerchug.gif

OK KotiX did alot of work and added buttons, I completetly redid most things although it doesnt look much diff the size of panels is diff and added all latest fades. New CVS took some time to impliment had to add alot.

Right now its pretty much going, but if you give me to weekend ill tidy (needs quite abit of cleaning up position color etc) it up alot and release a Beta of a working skin in 4x3 and partially in 16x9 or do you want to see a rough working skin.

I agree with RSkilz on the tabs, they were nicer on the Beasts Beta.
guess I'll have to make my own one for that feature. By the way, are there any complete tut on xml? The ones i've found are no good.

wouldn't it be nice to navigate the tabs with the left and right triggers? no matter where you are? and, for example, saving the location (i.e. music/any_folder/any_album) when changing the tab (i.e. to games), so when you come back to music-tab, you are right where you left music-tab. and then, when you press "back", you first get to the home-music-tab; pressing "back" the second time gets you to the home-tab. would be great, i think.
the fast up and down could be located on the left thumbstick as well, so there would be full functionality.

anyways,
awesome work,
great skin!

wow, that would be pretty cool to make a similar Web interfaced to match. I can try in the meantime, although i'm only so good with web design. I wouldn't think it would be very difficult since the overall approach with website design is easier then making a skin. And that part i've been dabbling a lot with already.

I think that a lot of the content that went into the xbox360 was taken directly from the alternate dashboards that are available today (i.e. EvoX, UnleashX, Avalaunch, etc.). This time areound M$ looked at these dashboard and said "Why don't we do that? The people want it. It could sell more!".
You could argue no but c'mon. Streaming media from a pc, And the real kicker, Shut it off from the dash itself. I really think that M$ got a lot of help from us.

this isn't exactly what you wanted, but dvd boxes behind the thumbnails?

they honestly make the skin look a billion times better.

even if you dont want to keep it that way, maybe make it an option in a Readme about how to change some files to put it in.

great job by the way.

Yeah, i was going to suggest the exact same thing. Maybe use the left stick analog up/down to fast-flip through titles instead of triggers so the triggers can be mapped to toggle between the Tabs.

Also, i dont know if its possible. Could you have a video play at the startup of XBMC. That video being the new xbox360 startup video. Like clip it out of a xbox 360 video on the internet.

Would That Not Be The SWEETEST Thing Ever.

Post by: ShortGuy365 on September 07, 2005, 07:28:00 PM
also replace some of the current backgrounds, with like xbox 360 pictures in stuff(ex. in the system config, would be a good place). To give it a more 360 look.

Sorry I Keep Repostin, but i jus keep thinkin of things!

If you want a copy of the current version of this skin(beta), I can email it to you. Just tell me your email, but a new version will be comming out shortly(I Hope!).

Also, The Skin Dosnet Quite Work Right With The New CVS.

Just Let Me Know,

PLEASE! do not add any XBOX 360 crap pictures to your beautiful skin..... It would be like putting big old White Armani letters on an Armani Suit.  Or like putting those CAR MANUFACTURER stickers on a car.....duhhh I know it is a FORD, but thanks for pointing it out!  We know it is an XBOX....we spent enough hours inside and out of it to realize this....no need to plaster it all over the UI.

my 2 cents.

Keep up the great work.

I've been using this skin for a couple days now. Props to britneypairs for an awesome skin. Just one thing though, I use xlink regularly with XBMC and noticed when you enter the xlink part of the skin, it still loads PM3's skin for it. The xlink notifications are PM3's also and the pop ups are to dark to read. Britney, can you skin that part so it looks like the 360 skin. Thanks again for the great skin, I plan on using it as my default as soon as all the bugs are fixed (not saying there are many)

Thanks for the update!

I really like what you've done to the skin...I believe PMIII finally will be replaced!

I just have one question.....where is the option to power off the xbox? Can I add the option to the script menu where the weather and gametrailers are?

Thanks again....great skin!!!

Am i missing something here, but i can't see how to get to the scripts. At least when you go back it only displays "Reboot  Shutdown  Shutdown in 15 Mins". And looked everywhere else and didnt' see where to access scripts. Or was this accidently left out? Just wondering, in case i was just to tired tonight because of work. Still looking great though either event!!! Great job BritneysPAIRS!!!

Uh duh. Better delete this one so I don't look completely stupid!! Haha. Guess i really am pretty tired from work. Was forgetting x360BP uses back and r-thumbstick differently for a minute, compared to Orb and PMIII. Time to go to bed, getting delirious. I love you guys!! LOL

it will run slow if you dont compress the textures smile.gifsmile.gif


Adding my congrats on all your efforts on this skin (and other projects)

As a newbie trying to learn all the jargon and pick up some pointers, is there an FAQ or How To... anywhere on compressing textures, skinning etc? I did some editing with Fireworks for a French guy who did a 360 style skin, but that was very simple. I'd like to go to the next level.

Anyway to you and the other pros - keep up the good work. XBMC rocks - regardless of which skin you use!

I'll update The Orbs  for sure and probably work on this one too, let me just say that I was expecting something more from BP, like the Xlink screen or some new graphics, but it's ok.
Let's enjoy what we have right now.
