Yes, but you have to realize that just won't work (well).

That said, all of the other views are pretty bad ass as well.

edit: Wait, would it be possible to animate this?:

This would never work in XBMC.

Yes it is.

When I was messing around with stuff for my own skin I wanted an effect similar to the 'waves' on the PS3 menu. I achieved it by making a very long image and simply adding a slow slide animation to it.

Looked good.

Oh wow!! I LOVE that home screen. This skin could have been a potential aeon-killer. The "showcase" and regular wall view still look great. Hopefully someone could create something similarHuh Big Grin

Phyek: “[. . .] So we put Surface on hold and decided to work on my other concept instead. [. . .]“

Probably quite a long ways off though.

Voted best looking skin that doesn't exist.

It would work if there would be a wall view where you can browse in all directions and if you have hardware which is fast enough to load/render all the covers without delay. ^^

Out blood standing, the flow the lay-out is breath taking keep up the amazing work.

Personally I'm a huge fan of this lay out its clean and still gives you the details you want along with that. All I can say is I want it now lol

Wall views don't really work as you have to fix them in one direction so that it's possible to navigate out of them (to get to view menu etc)

In static mockup images they look fantastic but in practice they don't work anywhere near as well.

Most of all you would need wall with fixed focused item. All of it has already been requested here http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?tid=55591

Phyek,

I've been out of this scene for a long, long time...just getting back into it...but I had to write when I saw this concept.
This skin looks STUNNING!! ELEGANT, CLEAN, SHARP, POLISHED! The font and glow are perfect.

It's BEAUTIFUL.
I literally gasped when I saw your movie 3D wall view screenshot!!

Please, please, make this skin! =)

This concept is too gorgeous to just stay on paper! Can we get some sort of confirmation that Phyek or someone else is working on it?

If not maybe we can go the "Alaska route" and find someone that will.

Any updates on this skin?

Unfortunately I think not. Was really looking forward to that gorgeous home screen. Sad
