What would be the most "universal" skin?

PierreLo · 2007-10-02, 08:52

Hi all,

Back to MP after a loooong time, I must admit I'm a bit lost with skins. It seems not all skins support all plugins.

So my "newbie again" question is: what is the most "standard" skin to use to be able to validate MP with most of the plugins (like My Films etc...). My goal is to have MP work flawlessly, no matter the skin, and afterwards to experiment with more recent skins.

Can you help me on this ? What skin would you recommend ?

Many thanks (sorry if the question was asked before)

Has to be the default BlueTwo and BlueTwoWide I would say as I understand that all Plugins have to work with these Skins.

Yep, BlueTwo is the default skin and should support all plugins.

On the other hand, I Revision and Replicant is *very* complete as well, and is in my view much nicer for 16:9 display.

XFace is not 100% ready yet, but is a killer-skin

Thanks for the answers.
I already have noticed the impressive XFace (who wouldn't...) but for the moment I'll give BlueTwo a try and validate that everything works fine.
XFace will come next.

Bye.
