Cheers everyone for the positive comments so far!

Looks disgustling nice and simple to use. (Typical PS3 owners lol)

At this rate, going to need more computers and TVs as so many top notch skins are coming out, getting harder and harder to pick a favourite now.

Look forward to the release of this.

Nice, I like this a lot - clean and simplistic.

Cheers! That's the idea... to not overload the skin with to many objects, views, or features. A bit like Alaska.

i expect the skin will be 720p. Hopefully the only performance hitter will be the backdrops at 1080p/720p, hence the backdrop overlay i mentioned in post #4.

Yay! Simplicity - that's the first thing I look for in a new skin.

This one looks great so far. Cheers.

This is really a nice skin! I'm definitely gonna try it out.

Keep it up Nod

On the TV episode selection screen will you have the option to display the plot summary? I just find it useful when I have a long list of episodes to work out which one is which.
