Thanks for your comments. Problem is the only movie view Ayala posted is a fanart view, but you got me thinking on a compromise between the single DVD cover and the need to see other DVD cases in your collection while browsing. I will post shots when I get this worked out. Also, I hadn't noticed the very slight glow behind the DVD case in Ayala's shots. This I will add also, as well as a DVD disc in the lower left corner. I think this cleaner view would also work well in the music section. Thanks again!

Looks like you are doing a great job at making this come to life. It is good to see people take on these concepts. Keep up the good work.
-One suggestion would be to not put the flags directly on the fanart image. Remember they are all different colors and can often blind out the flags. I think there is plenty of spots to dedicate as a flag area.

There will always be people who don't like certain skins, sadly there will always be one negative or flippant comment.
The skin itself is looking pretty good from the screenshots, and it would be interesting to try it out when finished.
I am not a massive fan of simpleness myself, but some skins suit better categories rather than others.
I use one skin for Movies, another skin for TV Shows, another skin for music, another for adult movies, and another skin for family movies.
So you will never ever have a 100% perfect skin, so you should never take heart to any negative comments, just mutter a few bad words under your breath and never take constructive criticism to heart, and too learn from that.
The main thing really is that you are doing a skin in your image, and what turns you on, so in respects if 1,000 people do not like your skin, and you are more than happy using your skin on your setup.
Sod the rest, at least you have the set up that you dreamed about and built, and that is far more important.
