I've been following the development from the beginning and was hoping I would be able to use this with a Revo, but it seems it has grown into a skin as complex as Aeon. Has anyone successfully used this skin on a Revo?

It runs on XBOX so all those Revos should handle it just fine, plus it's not a texture heavy skin so that helps too...All window transitions should take half a second.

Really I'm trying to not have a bunch of options and settings. I liked how Aeon was customizable but i hate checking thousands of settings. Really the only thing I sometime have trouble with is 'extrafanart' but thats due to the drive waking up and thats optional anyways...

Only thing you really need is Logos anything else is just extra. And technically you don't need logos but the skin was designed around them...
