Thanks
Fixed my older post. If the image isn't in the media folder then you need to use special://skin/
ie
PHP Code:
<icon>special://skin/backgrounds/program_image.png</icon>

Only way i got it to work was to add new image control that gets its texture from Container(300).ListItem.Icon to either home.xml or to GlobalBackround.

They're not scraped fanart image that's why they wont work unless you add the new image control.

I broke my foundation and hoping someone can help. I was playing with the home screen, managed to make a horizontal menu and make it focus correctly. I tried to change the font. It didn't work so I thought maybe I have to shutdown for it to pick up the new ttf in the fonts folder. On opening the login screen is now blank.
I deleted the foundation folder and it defaulted to Confluence so I reinstalled Foundation but still no login screen (I have a few profiles).
I'd like to think one day I will get over my 'try first, read later' method.....but probably not.

Copy your current Foundation folder somewhere safe and install a fresh one, then try copying your modified ones over one at a time (refreshing each time).
Hopefully you'll find the problem one.
