I actually have that link as a bookmark.. it pays to do one's research.. Smile I have already checked out allmusic.com but there genres felt too restricted and limited.. a good starting point, but not much else.. I am going to check out last.fm's.. odd that I didn't think of that myself even though I use it daily.. Smile

But I think the id3 reference will be the main source for genres to do..

Sorry olympia, I just saw that you had posted as well.. I will definitely make you requests.. as you didn't want them in Silhouette style there is nothing stopping me from making them.. expect lack of time of course.. Smile

I'm making a list with all the current requests and then I'm going to start going through it and make the posters..

Not making the Music genre ones yet though, as they're a entire project in itself..

Just as an update to anyone wondering. I'm still making posters.. I've just had a lot on my plate lately.. Commissioned work have a tendency to gain advantage over community work I'm afraid, but rest assured that all the requests so far have been duly noted and I'm still working on them, just not as often (as I would like to) right now..

how do you add these to show in library mode or file mode?? do I have to modify a xml and if so which one and what do I have to modify?? I dont see this anywhere in the thread.

also how do I customize my files so that they show in the genre? for instance monsters. How do I add this genre and update my movie to show it under the genre?

Thanks

RF

This thread should answer most of your questions, as for your files, the genre tags needs to contain all the genres you would want to show up.. Personally for example, I limit mine to three genres because I don't want movies to show in a what I think is a redundant number of genres.. Smile

how do u get the genre posters to turn up then? it is just the default image all the time for me. i have downloaded and extract it to media/moviegenre

do i have to change some codes somewhere to get the genreposters to show instead of the default poster?

oh okey, will it only work with stark or does it work with auriga to?

edit: i have installed it and it work yay
but one thing, is there a way to get the genre posters to work without screwing up the movies view? some file not to overwrite or something like that?

As far as i am aware it only works with Auriga. to stop it from breaking your existing mods you will just have to compare each new file and look for all the changes cf2009 made then cop this code into your existing files, it may take you a while but it's worth the effort.
And allways, make a back up of your existing 720p folder before adding new files incas you don't like the changes.Smile

They also work in Andyblac's MOD. I believe he added in CF2009's home customization in his recent update.

Yes I'm still alive, and a lot has changed since I was last very active. As all of you probably know life and whatnot has a tendency to get in the way of the best of us, my regards to you Duncan and every one else who is not as active at the moment. I know what it's like. And if anyone has tried getting into carlos.edgefive.com this past week will probably have noticed a lack of.. well you know.. a lack of the entire 'effin website. Needless to say, it's up again now. I needed to alter it to accommodate certain changes in my life. And all the files you could want are there. Probably elsewhere too as I have noticed that my Posters seem to be included in some skins by default, oh how it warms my heart to see that You appreciate my work. And hopefully someday I'll have the time to finish what I started.

asphinx, can you create some tutorial "how to create own Silhouette Poster"?
I try to create one, but have a problem with similitude.


- asphinx - 2009-11-13

I wish I could be more helpful but alas I am currently overwhelmed with work and life. I have been considering releasing the Adobe Photoshop files of the Silhouettes Posters. That would probably help if anyone ever wanted to continue on my work.

However as I am writing this anyway I could try to give you a few pointers.

Use the default_2 as base, seeing as it's exactly like all the other Posters except without an actual silhouette it might be as good a start as any. The silhouette itself consists of two layers. Hope that helps a little at least.
