Lol. Didn't even notice the menu along the bottom, yeah that'll work for my better half.....maybe Big Grin

May have to make it a bit larger then...

Nearly finished with this view, have finally figured out how to have customisable tiles, although at the moment you can only select from your favourites, will look into other stuff though!

Okay, so this is how the horizontal/tile homescreen is looking like (big images Tongue)...

The "+" are customisable ones, as I mentioned before at the moment you can only add items that are set as favourites but I will change it to include things like custom playlists (eventually...).


Metro Mockups - jmuck78 - 2012-03-10 21:09

The new skin is amazing. Love the new metro mockups, too.

I have been using the metro gui on xperience, and I love it. The only thing I would like to see is the ability to add more short-cuts to the movies, tv, and/or home screens. Adding another column of tiles to the right on the movies screen, for example, would be perfect. But maybe the better way to do that is to add a row of small rectangular tiles at the base of the center set of tiles that would allow you to add additional add-on shortcuts. The new tiles should be relatively small - maybe 1/3 to 1/4 the height of the normal add-on tiles.

Just my $0.02...again thank you for the new skin and all the hard work!

Wow this skin is coming out better and better, i like the idea to fuse skins like alaska, aeon and now xperience1080. Keep up your great job mate! Compliments!

Looks beautiful! I really like how it's all coming together. Will it be possible to set the "+" options to certain views like Genres, Years, etc? Also, I really like how you put together the music view - any thoughts on doing something similar to the TV and Movie ones to utilize recently added or featured/random (kinda like the first screenshot of the 'Home' view?
