I had forgotten about that one but I must have taken it in subconsciously because it does share similarities! Will post a screenshot soon

Great news Big Grin
Looking forward to see the screenshoot.

Been playing about with the low list view today and thought it was about time I posted a screenshot.

It's still a bit work in progress as I'm not totally sure on the positioning and sizing of the various elements but this will give you an idea of where I'm at with it.

It's looking good though not so keen on the font but i do like the low list view
And it does have the mediastream look to it, will you have a choice of font styles etc like you did with mediastream?

I agree with paul's feelings on the font(s?). They definitely have too much of that "comic sans" feeling to them.

It's a mockup I found in Minimalko mod tread. It's a shame it didn't got made,
because I loved it Big Grin

This actually is working screenshot, not just a mockup. I had this view working. Never released it however.

I was thinking the same, I would have go with a more... serious, minimalistic font (helvetica? avantgarde?)

I think the movie poster could be smaller to show more of the fanart unless there's a way to hide it.

A thin, more stylish font would do a better job, that one is too cartoonish.

I love the idea behind this as well. The font looks very comic like. I prefer the clean, sleek look. Would there be an option for posters for tv that would look like the movie posters. I personally prefer the posters over wide banners. But once again, that's just my preference. I truly love the concept. Very minimal while still giving you all the information. Love it.

Glad I'm not the only one who thinks the font is spoiling the overall look of the skin.
No offence intended Skunkmonkee. just throwing in my humble oppinion but as i said before if theres a choice of font styles then problemo keeps all happySmile
