Shade: Official Release Thread

Broads Wrote:Well done with the release. It takes a lot of effort to get to where you have got, and yes there will be more effort to come as the user requests come in.

I think the new home images are infinatly more suitable than the previous images and now really gel with the home page.

As I find myself playing with this skin more and more, I find the thing that its missing is subtle little animations, that would make the skin feel more alive, that said this skin has some great views that bring all the relevant user info to the user.

Again well done.

Broads.

Could you list some areas where animations are needed, I can add them if you tell me where to put them.

I put it in the scripts folder in the Shade folder, where else do you suggest?

i was talking about having a button "get logo" on info screen. you can also put the script in the skin folder and integrated a button in option for bulk download, like we can see in night.

Believe me I taught Simon Cowell everything he knows. If your stuff is in storage and you are using old equipment, then obviously you are not using equipment such as 16:9 monitors.

As said before XBMC has come into the 21st century, you admit that you are currently using cheap old equipment it would be like me having a black and white TV and moaning that XBMC was not in colour.

The skin and XBMC is now going into the future where 16:9 screens are the norm, and it needs to move forward rather than trying to cater for the past.

Guys, lets stay on topic.

It still is no worries about that one, but people cannot expect to have new skins that are suitable for 4:3 monitors or tv screens, it would be defeating the object and creating more work for skinners.

Can someone upload Shade to another host, download from google right now is painfully slow.

i can add you there if you have a svn or git host :
