Hi.
First of all, superb work with this skin. Thanks for your efforts.

Now, the question. Is there any way to have custom icons (and/or backgrounds) for movies and tv shows genres?
I dived into your repository at github but found nothing I can use. Just a couple of references to a 'DefaultGenre.png' inside 'shortcuts/movies.shortcuts' and 'shortcuts/tvshows.shortcuts' files. Nothing else.

If not possible, do you think it could be a feature in future releases?
Let me please know some examples, i.e. skins which use this feature.

Thanks

Ciao.
For sure, I can bring you a couple of examples.
Aeon Nox has a nice 'genre iconset + backgrounds': http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?tid=141714 (Aeon Nox at github in this link, just in case looking at its source code somehow helps you: https://github.com/BigNoid/Aeon-Nox)
And Xperience1080 seems to also have this feature (no backgrounds, I think): http://www.stateofdecay.info/?p=47 (Xperience1080 at github here: https://github.com/Black09/Xperience1080)


Grazie e arrivederci Smile
Ok, i'm having a look at it. Added to my to-do list.
Maybe for the next release.

Thanks

Very nice.
Don't hesitate to ask me for help if you need it. Don't know anything about XBMC skinning but I can learn fast. And it can't be harder than my job anyway XD

Saluti.
