New skin

Hi guys,

first of all 10Q. I am using XBMC for a long time now and it is the best solution in HTPC, and I tried a lot before getting here.

Second of all I found this link and I said that I need to have it.
I don't have an account on deviantart, so if the artist will get here I would like to thank you him for his great work.

I am not good at skinning but I am learning, I am good at watching movies . And beside this I have 2 kids that does not leave me with much time.

Ok, untill now I have:




So, if anyone will like to help me with the skinning or ideas, I 10q him.

Since I don't know to much about skinning I am actually changing a version of PMIII HD in order to get the skin. Because it was the most documented.

Oh, and I am working on 1080.

My first question, is there a way to make this?
I would like to have that fade in the blur of the fan art.



PS: I am new on the forum so please don't be shy an cut edit my posts if they are not ok.

It's allways nice to see new skins being developed.

I think you should go and have a look on the skin development subforum.
A lot of documention can be found there (and also the foundation skin by Hitcher)!

Thank you Smobbo, Foundation is helping me a lot.

Also check out Confluence when you understand the basics and if you want to create a skin for Eden11.0.
Because Foundation is based on the GUI for Dharma and there have been some great additions to the new GUI enguine which saves you a lot of coding.

10x I've seen that, when I wanted to make the date like it is

Can I move this to Skin Development? Or could someone move it for me?

Thank you
