Upon my first install of xbmc (and the searches related) I came across a skin with animated backgrounds.... But I just can't remember it's name... Any help here please ?

as far as i remember any of the Aeon skins has this feature "Ken Burns effect"
No doubt there are others but i can't remember which ones sorry.

XBMC Frodo 12 - Windows 7 - Asrock Ion 330HT - Aeon Nox

Night does it. I think the whole Night family does.

I think BackRow and Transparency! do also. Probably some option in skin settings worded "Use animated Backgrounds" something like that...

Well, when I say 'animated', I'm not thinking of some diaporama effects, like the ones used in the pictures section !
The skin I was talking about is very bright in colors (at least inthe home screen) and had some lines (!?), waves, like the logo of that old windows NT, waving and undalating. Gosh, what a damned I had to uninstall my previous xbmc..

Aeon65 perhaps? That has a smoke effect in the home screen iirc.

Aeon65 seems to be the candidate even if my memory is a brighter picture for the home screen... The animation is what I remember though !
I wonder if this is why this skin as such a lag between major screens ?
