yep,it should at the end be embedded too or if this doenst look good cause of the darker background maybe shadow underneath.

And the idea is to have multiple themes,not just this one.
We are open for requests for Color Themes.


I hate my addiction xbmc - branlr - 2011-02-24 18:25

So, despite having TONS of shit to do, which may prevent me from completing any of this shit in a timely manner...


WeatherPlus=working in ugly mode
Grajen's RSS reader widgets = working in ugly mode
Limbus comic view= working in ugly mode
Simplicity's TV Guide= working in ugly mode

Once I get a chance to pretty them up a little bit and maker sure I haven't ruined anything, I will post these enhancements.

To be honest, I can't take much credit. I am just copying other people's code and modifying it to go into Cirrus. Ronie of T!, Grajen of Grajen's RSS Reader, bridgman of limbus, the guys who work on simplicity and deserve pretty much all of the credit for all of this awesome shit.

If time becomes an issue in me completing this stuff beyond this weekend, I will be happy to send anybody the files, all of which will open and work immediately, and you can spend forever trying to make it look right Smile

Otherwise, I may be able to do these over the next few days.

In conclusion, I hate myself.

By the way, malexx or butch, does this skin support conditional weather backdrops? I keep seeing the setting referenced, but I don't actually see a setting for it. Just wondering.

well you got me .... i dont use the weather feature,maybe butcherbay knows,if not we take care and look.

Just noticed a bug I think...

In music, in file mode, viewoptionspanel.png doesn't show up behind the menu.

@branlr
thanx for your effort, just keep trying to do what you can, then send me the files and i'll try to fit it for cirrus if not we'll just share the files to download for people that are interested, as said before, we don't use weather specific features also tv guide is not on my todo list. There are other things malexx and me are planing to do, my personally priority is to get finished pvr support.
About the view window in music files, yes it's a bug Smile will get it fixed for next update.

Here are 2 Screens of what i am using so far, the question is keep it personal or integrate it as a Theme?

Aww sure, I definitely love it, it's very classy! +1 for inclusion

Reminds me a bit the fantastic design of the Welo skin

Incredibly gorgeous skin - awesome work. I love the right menu views but would it be possible to add the option for a dark fade on the right side of the screen? This would make the right menu more legible on busy/lighter backgrounds.

I think it is already faded some, but the texture could be darkened--would be easy to modify yourself if they don't want to add it officially.

I don't think that there could be an "option" for this type of thing--if there were, there would simply be too many options, but I do know that sometimes the text can be hard to read in those views, so it might make since to just simply darken it a bit to begin with.

We'll see if we can improve readability for rightlist ... i've done it in the advanced launcher games views ...

I think the font color and size could be the solution.
