I'm not sure this would be possible without a huge rewrite, but was wondering if it would be possible to include various user mods to an external folder and then have the skin look there first for an image/xml then fallback to the default. That way any Mods people do are not reset/discarded when a skin update is pushed. Marcos has done an amazing job making this skin customizable in just about every way, and I think this would add another cool way to customize the skin.
For me anytime I reinstall the skin or an update is pushed I have to remember what mods I had, where the files are, which ones I have to replace. Understandably there would be some problems, like if I modded the myvideonav.xml and part of an update was to that xml, my Mod would break. But if the fallback was the file in the skin then other than my Mod not showing up everything would continue to function.
Just throwing that out there to see if it would be possible or if anyone else would be interested.
