That's funny Panic, that was one of the first things I coded for myself a long time ago (you can't help but see that empty space in PM3 as a good place for em), I also added the dvd case the video screen, and it isn't too hard to make it conditional. I used three elements, the nocdcase.png then the the listitem.icon on top of that, then the transparent outside cd case over all that, that way if the icon is missing the background doesn't show through.
I wonder how many other skinners started the same way? Keep up the good work.

Thanks for the hints. The idea with the cover in the back is brilliant to hide the background. Will try it in the evening. I am also trying to add dvd covers *G* same idea ;-)

Will try more and post the screens.

If anyone is interessed and willing to test i can post the diffs of the xml's or the xml's for the latest PM3 svn....

The MediaStream has it, but I changed my mind since and have to say the I do not personally like it.

Always read the XBMC online-manual, FAQ and search the forum before posting.

i still like this look, it gives a nice gloss and consistency to all the album icons. I would love to figure out how to do this in pm3 for movies as well...
