Yeah, I struggled initially with whether to include a note about the svn releases because of the "as long as there is nothing broken" aspect... I updated the FAQ though with a warning about potential issues, so people will at least know there's a choice. Thanks for the feedback!

The FAQ has now been updated with sections on modding and fanart/thumbs.

Just wanted to say thanks for this - It's a huge help! If you have the chance to address it, I'd like some help getting the custom weather images working. I read that it's supported in the latest rev on github, but I couldn't get it working and got sidetracked on something else so it's still not working for me.

Thanks again for a great FAQ

Cloverfield, this is described in this thread, which is also linked in Section 2.1 of the FAQ. Basically, fanart for individual movies should go in the same folder as your movie and should be named "fanart.jpg". Backdrops for the home screen can be stored anywhere, and you must configure the Aeon settings (under Settings -> Customize -> Backdrops) to point to the location where your backdrops are stored.

I cannot figure out how to get xbmc to shutdown or exit back to ubuntu while using the aeon skin, anyone got screen shots on how that works?
