Add Pictures menu item - dave77 - 2013-07-31
Hi,
Great skin!
How do I add a Pictures menu to the top of the home screen, it doesn't appear under "Manage Categories"
RE: Add Pictures menu item - `Black - 2013-07-31
Just add a pictures shortcut to the applications menu. An extra picture section makes no sense as there isn't anything to show (recently added pictures etc. not supported currently, xbmc doesn't even have a proper picture database).

Yes, unfortunately there ist no native picture database in XBMC. You can use MyPicsDB-Addon instead and place a shortcut in the apps menu as well. But for me MyPicsDB is quiet slow and I have difficulties to centralize the database via MySQL on my QNAP NAS.
However, if you just want to have a separate menu strip for the pictures then take a look at the Xperienc1080plusplus-mod: http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?tid=165481
It also creates a diashow-tile, which is quiet nice and goes quiet well with the other animated tiles in the Xperience-Skin.
Brgds,
