PM3 mod : visuals/movie overlay

hi britneyparis - love your mod to pmiii.

i have changed a few things to suit myself. one thing though.

on pm iii (fig 1) you can see there is the xbmc logo. this fills the home page nicely.

on yours, pm iiix (fig 2) it looks a bit "lost" without any logo there!

fig 2 pm iiix

yip but next version i might add scripts folder as i have intergrated lots of scripts into my version

ive reput on a modded version of the xbmc logo choke did just a bit smaller thought it was 2 over powering. after i finish a couple of projects im doing ill write an xml guild to what each xml does and what to change to add buttons etc, it needs doing so people can customise the buttons to there tastes


? inside mod dont know what that means

i can add cd stuff easy as kotix has left his stuff open and is great to deal with Smile


id like to release pm3 mod uncompressed with packing to texture.xpr file in folder so people can do it themselves is there legal issues with this?

bp,
i like some of the mods you have made to the skin. i have incorporated some of them.

on the pm3 xbox logo... it looks very nice, gives the home screen a polished look.

i've yet to see any menu button panel that really looks great with the home screen. the bottom button is always too small to accomidate a long button name. i was thinking of a shape that would look nice and still conform to the style of the screen. maybe having it actually "complete" the entire shape but only have the section in the middle be the actual buttons... the rest can fade away. that would look cool. here's an idea of the general shape where the buttons would be. also, instead of the "led" like lights how about adding a glow to the button itself like choke does with the cancel button and some of the other regular buttons? i use a button scroller so only the middle button on my menu panel is used. i think this is a much cleaner interface then having static buttons and having them all over the screen.

let me know what you think...

I'm not an expert but I play one at work.
