Coming soon to Alaska Revisited

I use "Banner" for tv shows and "Episode" for episodes but there is isen't any good options for seasons that use the same behaviour or design and I would love to se that as one of the new viewtypes.

I've installed "Alaska Revisited" and "Alaska Revisited Mod" (don't know the difference) and the only thing I can't do, is figure out how to use the different "Colour Themes"... Did I read correctly, that they're not in there as yet? Or, possibly, someone hasn't updated/created them for the new 'Revisited/Mod' packages? Secondly, can we still use our own "HomeIcons" in the same way as we're used to? Thanks, in advance!

Mod uses unicode fonts for foreign use.

No themes yet but someone is working on one.

Yes, skin.alaska.revisited/extras/homeicons

Those last screen shots are beautiful.

One more question. I found a bit strange that the watched icon is on top on the selected item and on the bottom on the non selected one. Is it a bit odd?

When I hit next, does the icon dispare from the top and repares on the bottom?

Thx again.

Here's the reason -

When in season view XBMC ignores any season folders you might be using so using images stored in them is impossible.

I don't think I made myself clear enough, I want another viewtype to complement episodes and banner that use vertical scrolling and a picture for the selected season. I made a quick paint mock up to illustrate what I mean.

I see now. Maybe you'll like using Info List -

How about moving the "watched" icon under the title for the out-of-focus banners/posters...? Wink

...or have the text at the bottom in all three images

Well I've been meaning to change the code for the Watched status for awhile now to make it more efficient and now seemed like a good time.

By the way, the next update will be a little longer than I originally stated because I'm changing a lot more than I'd anticipated - it's a big update. Wink

I think that's much better, Hitcher, nice one. Wink

A big update?! Cool. Cool

When can we expect this to be released? Smile

And will it be available as a new Alaska version or as an update of the existing one?
