I've been quietly idling in the background, watching and waiting. I wanted to leave you be to continue your great work xb2iris..... But I see you feed on praise so praise it shall be Wink

Every screenshot you have posted so far has been amazing. I love what you're doing and highly encourage you to continue on the same path.

It is because of Aeon and now Horizonz Mod that I have got back into my media centre. So... thank you.

I'm still trying to find time to put together some great background pictures, but it'll get there.

Over the past few weeks, the Lower Home Scroller position has been mentioned more and more frequently. So, here's a screenshot of what to expect in the next release Volume III.

Still awaiting more Feedback on the topic of Home Screen's and older versions of the Mod. Thing's won't get changed unless you say something, and obviously, flattery will get you very far to getting your way... LOL!

Your turn...!

Can't sleep. Thought I'd look if there were anything interesting going on in these forums, and this screenshot popped up!

That's the second time this screenshot captivated me. That backdrop is unbelievable! The Skin passing over the backdrop is even more sensational. I'm in love with that screenshot!

Simply stunning!

Will we have the option to choose the position for the date & time?
Personally, i still prefer it on the top right.

You're much better at the flattery than myself. Go forth and inspire xb2iris's creative genius.

Oh, and noticed the most recent visitors to your profile? You're garnering some attention I see......

I have to agree, love what you have done but time panel up the top is much better.

One thing that really upset me when using the lower home scroller was the disappearance of the rss feed. Can you add it to your mod somehow?

any mirrors for Volume II?

thanks in advance

Another great preview. I have to say, I've never tried the lower screen position since the Aeon days, and that was short lived.

Now, after checking the screenshot out, I'm pretty impressed with what it looks like. I think the time panel does it justice, and makes this view more visually stimulating in my opinion.

Really liking where this mod is going! The future is upon us, and for all of you wanting the time panel back at the top, well, this is the future. Like it or not, it's going to take a bit of getting used to, but in all, it'll feel like a new skin.

I'm so ready for this release.


- missy_xbmc - 2008-10-12 15:54

Great! I have to agree with XBDD, i like or even love the new timepanel. It works.

So many people lost their head over the time panel in the stark forum, and they've just complained about the new look in this mod. I don't understand, things need to change to progress, and it looks splendid in my opinion. I just don't get it! Do you want to progress or do u want to keep things the same?

Well, I confirm I love what I see. Too excited for words, so I'll leave the ball in ur court! Can't wait!

I like progress, but I would like to have regular updates...
If for some reason things are heading into a direction I don't like I can revert to another version...

It's very easy to get a situation like Stark... Maybe it will never come and we would have almost died to get the code he was running more than a month ago.

SVN is great for this...

There were some things missing in volume 1 that made me go back to original Aeon.. The volume 2 is missing some minor feature that's already incorporated... Well, yes... this new skin looks stunning and I would like to wait...

But I could have had Horizonz volume 2 with that minor feature for more than a week already.... I know it all sounds a bit ungrateful, but I'm doing my fair share for the public domain as well although it's not skinning.

Regular updates is the key. SVN might be helpful to make this feasable...
