Electric Lead (Monochrome mod) - Page 3

Hi all! First, thanks for your comments, and i only want report that i'm working hard making this new skin. The lack of documentation does more difficult to work, but I do not surrender and hope to have it ready in a few days, the first beta available. Although it's a pre-release version, i want that it has the smaller number of bugs that i can and soon already you will be able to help me between all, reporting me the errors that you'll find

regards,

patricon from what i see in the screenshot, is this a light HTPC specs demanding skin? cause if it is, it would be a good option for my future and modest htpc amd 1600

Currently working to finish it today... but a damm virus is trying to stop me (Virtumonde or something like that...) I'm almost finished and i'm just verifyng all screens and optimizing size to keep the skin running faster even on low-end machines

Submitted first beta of the skin (two flavours available at the moment). I suggest to use this skin with following plugins installed:

- My films
- My status (for MBM 5)
- Worldmap
- Wikipedia
- Global search
- Online videos
- My lyrics
- Last.fm plugin
- Web browser
- My news

for proper usage, set all of these plugins to "Listed in home" in MP's configurator, and also set as "Listed in home" to three extra menues named "Electric Lead...".

There is already some problems unsolved (i hope to solve them soon) as for example the bottom bar, that i need to change two things: the hide animation to bottom and also the key to show it that should be the down arrow. Please if you encounter bugs or graphic problems, report it here. I do not have a TV card (well, i've one, a PixelView PlayTV Pro 2 analog card, but it doesn't work with current version of MP) so i can't test the TV part... submit errors here and i'll try to solve them.

Soon i'll try to update first post with some screenshots also...

I hope that you all like it, enjoy it...

greets,
