I really do not like the bouncing ball animation. There should be a little more thinking to the animation in my opinion. The skin is still great but the animation needs work.

I'm pretty sure it's there just as an example. Check the changelog on January 25 -- Added: Temp Background animation...
I assume that means Smoke will replace it with something better eventually.

I am aware of that. just stating my 2 cents.

You should think one up and impress us all.

I'm using Msan compilted latest build of 0127 and XBMC0124. I also think this version of skin causes XBMC to freeze everytime when I stop playing a video. Changing back to 0125 version and PMIII skin, the problem is gone.
When the problem happens, the background animation is disabled.

Also a suggestion for the background wallpapers: How about adding a few effects to change the wallpapers automatically? Like those in a slideshow. I think that could be cooler than a background animation.
I think ths is simply one of the best skins for XBMC. Thanks to Smokehead for your hard work making Xbox more enjoyable.

I noticed this as well...

I only noticed this too, but only if I have any of the animations enabled.. by default I now have skin and background animations disabled, and it seems to be fine

Still no newer build yet, Msan? I'm counting on you.
Thanks. Because of the stopping video bug, I'm using the older 0125 build of yours.

Nothing yet.. You can always check here https://xboxmediacenter.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/xboxmediacenter/Clearity/ first (take a look at the changelog)

this might be even easier for a quick check to see if anything changed: http://xboxmediacenter.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/xboxmediacenter/

Yeah, your second link is a easier way to check. But downloading from your site is fast too anyway. Thanks.
Don't know if this 348 build on Jan. 30 has fixed the video problem or not.

Updated today, does seem to have fixed the video problem. Thing is I dont think I had it until I switched from Clearity to another skin then back... Guess I wont be switching again!!
Only reason I switched was because I was trying out some of the scripts and they don't seem to display properly using Clearity. Is that more to do with the scripts than the skin
?

Noticed that behaviour too. But no response or fix for that until now (earlier thread here). Hoped that smokehead could say something about it. :-(

Great job on this skin, i love it.
One question. Is it possible to have the "Now Playing" overlay show up after 30 seconds when you are on the Home screen? It seems that it only comes up if you are in My Music or one of the other sub menus?
Thanks and keep up the great work.
