Another problem I found is that when I watch it fullscreen on my PC (that I think has a 16:10 aspect ratio) the whole thing gets deformed, so the angles look all weird... I had to set XBMC to windowed mode and force 720p 16:9...
Is there anyway to tell XBMC to letterbox the skin if the display is not 16:9?

I think Feanor and Watzen should join forces and bring this skin to fruition! The more i look at the skin the more i love it, something fresh and different from all the other skins in development..
Cant beleive you have the main menu up and running already, any chance of a youtube preview when you can?

You could try a fade animation based on which "slot" you're in in the list.

how would you go about doing that? several conditional animations on the single item in the <itemlayout>? and what would that condition be?
I mean without doing a custom layout using the coverflow technique, and not having static content.

You want to know the slot number, not the item number. I was thinking of Container.Position, but it works the wrong way around. As I re-think about it, it's not currently possible, as the listitem doesn't actually know where the list is when it's being rendered. Not sure of a nice way around that one.
You could probably do it if you have a static set of items (i.e. that never change) as you could fade them based on what has focus. Would be kinda icky though!
