Hi, and a mod question - zemaree - 2010-10-08

Hi all,

first of all tnx for the great skin, i just moved from Aeon to T! cause i like to see my fanart Smile

I find this skin simply gorgeous Nod

But i also like the homebar of Aoen:

I try to find the texture of T! to try to change the background of the homebar but in the skin texture are compressed and in the FAQ where you said that i can find it in clear i was not able to find it.

I also take a look to this guide: http://wiki.xbmc.org/index.php?title=XBMC_Skinning_Manual but i'm not able to find how to uncompress & compress the texture.xbt

I'm thinking to port only the home bar with the shadow but without the rss feed and the episode/movie etc number and the time/meteo etc etc...

Is this possible? Can you give me some hint of where to get some further information?

regards

a noob skinner Big Grin

as far as i know there's currently no tool to uncompress .xbt files,
but the images in Transparency! are all available in the T! svn:
http://code.google.com/p/transparency-xbmc/

use a svn client (for instance Tortoise, if you use windows) to download the files.

as for porting the home menu of Aeon, i'm sure it's possible.
if you have any specific questions, feel free to ask.
