I have searched but didnt find a plugin for this so i'm assuming it's something added to the skin? Apologies if this is incorrect.

I could do, I take it you want more than the icon on the top left.

Have you seen these, or what ideas have you got ?

Wow i had no idea of the options available. i was just thinking of this http://www.xbmcnerds.com/wcf/images/phot...179dad.jpg
Anything you prefer really i was just thinking it was simpler to have the weather directly on the home screen rather than having to go into the weather menu each time.

Those are some nice ones..

that way they will work good for both.

Here are uncompressed textures v.0.0.1 used in confluence.Lite.Mod

I've included "/status/WatchedTemplate.pdn" which will be the file to guide users in creating their own watched / unwatched icons, it still needs a very small pixel adjustment on the banners and also needs to be converted to a photoshop/gimp format rather than the windows.paint.net which it is now

@Everyone

Seeing how wilson.joe has adjusted his submenu items, are there any "reasonable" suggestions for which submenus & submenu items should appear and where.

Due to an earlier post about how if "Music Addons" was added to the main menu and after using that the "Music" option would go straight back to "Addons" I've added the possibliity for "Music - Artists" and Music - Albums" to be added to the main menu, which fixes that problem.

More goodies to play with. by messing with color and the images I am getting a bitter
idea of whats what when Im ready the xml files for the skin.. well off to download
those images and add them in with the 3 I have been working on and get them finished
up. looking forward to trying your new features..

If you will notice above.. this is low view, the scrolling title is in the plot area and
sometimes it will make it impossible to view the plot.

Didn't check that one, will fix

Here's an option that's been put forward that I quite like for an XXHomePanel


At first glance the only problem that may happen is the weather conditions may run into the panel heading

looks great!!!

simplicity is compexity and compexy isnt really simplicity. its moments like these i have to say the complexity is behind the scene, woman like that, that means I like it,cause I love woman... lol.. think like steve jobs, take the compexity out of the Equation that they approve that is why I like the idea of the fullscreen from the home that is why i like the idea of the search, though I think it could better. but the issue is weight put it in, let people have an option on size possible? all playlists at that size being scanned can be weight.. the main movies.. yeah..

EDIT: LIKE I NEED ANOTHER DRINK !! But I would say for go for it.. add it in..

Every place we can put text in a theme should have the ability to change its color fpr those that dont want to mess with changing anything but color and backdrop.

I say this because I come from ansi art world. Amd yes im am old school geek.
you give enough to feed off to change for basic Calisthenics and you can't more peeps interested
just saying... LOL..
