I added an option to use a text only now playing notification. When that is activated then various views will utilize the formerly reserved space in the lower left of the screen by either allowing more plot text, listing the genre, number of episodes, or by showing video source & closed captioning flags for movies. That was obviously turned on for the previews.

I'm going to double check for problems tomorrow & hope to post an update either late Friday or over the weekend. I'll sign up at github & see if I can figure it out in order to post this as a fork of Alaska. I'll also still upload it to mediafire, of course.

Thanks & sure, I'll take a look at making an option to use Banners in the Fanart view today before I upload the new version. It shouldn't be too difficult.

It's been a while so I can't really remember but I think I had made it from a poster graphic I found online. It's not part of this mod though. It's just an image file that I overlay on top of a poster in PSP for a bluray movie then I use the modified jpg. Let me know if you want it & I can post it here.

After strip out thousands of glyphs I didn't need from the fonts and packing the textures into an .xpr, I've got the memory usage for this skin working on my xbox with 30mb of free ram to spare. It looks frigggin-fantastic! Thanks Amra!

Cool. It will be included with the big update I will post this weekend (maybe very late tonight). I want to test things out on my TV first by actually watching something instead of just tweaking the skin. Rolleyes

You're welcome but big thanks need to go to Hitcher for all the hard work he did (WAY more than any little tweaking I've done). Thanks again Hitcher!
