First thanks for the great base skin. I have been playing with it and trying to get backgrounds for each of the items in the home page as well as aligning the text to fit correctly. I am not exactly sure what I am doing wrong at this point. would love any advice from the experts.
I pasted my home.xml here:

Any pointers or advice would be great. I have played with other skins but am having trouble starting from scratch like this.
Regards,
SoBBie
PS I am starting with the 1080 skin only.

You only need the one image control that will get it's info from whatever's focused in the list.
PHP Code:
<control type="image">
<posx>0</posx>
<posy>0</posy>
<width>1920</width>
<height>1080</height>
<texture background="true">$INFO[Container(300).ListItem.Icon]</texture>
<fadetime>600</fadetime>
</control>
Then you just add the images to the items.
PHP Code:
<item id="1">
<description>Programs</description>
<label>31002</label>
<icon>special://skin/backgrounds/program_image.png</icon>
<onclick>ActivateWindow(Programs,Addons)</onclick>
</item>

Thank you very much for this! Just one question, where do you locate the Foundation skin under OS X? Can't seem to find it anywhere.

On OS X, all skins are in
/Users/doestergaard/Library/Application\ Support/XBMC/addons

The Library is not anymore located in my folder. I have upgrated from SL to Lion. :confused2:
EDIT: Problem is solved, it was hidden by default in OSX.

Waht exactly do the lines in home.xml change?
<width>1920</width>
<height>846</height>
<onup>300</onup>
<ondown>300</ondown>
<onleft>300</onleft>
<onright>300</onright>
<focusposition>5</focusposition>
<scrolltime>200</scrolltime>

The width and height of the main list; the function of it's directional controls; it's focus position in the list; and the time it takes to scroll from one item to the next.
