[QUOTE="2BitSculptor, post: 628177, member: 65661"] [b]Re: aMPed 3.1 User Mods[/b] Hi Dadeo, I'm jumping into skinning again ... it's been awhile. I hadn't done anything special to my 800x600 skin and have gotten behind on skin code changes. There is a lot to change for the upgrade to 1.1 final, and I still haven't gotten all of my skin working, so I'm shifting gears and using aMPed as a base for my new skin... ya, I like how you've done things in aMPed, and I'm just beginning to figure out your xml's. I found I can bump aMPed up to 800x600 pretty successfully by batch-changing all posX and posY to shift the screens over and down, allowing for my TV's overscan mask. Then changing the skin size to 800x600 in references.xml I still had to tweek the backdrop/Fan-art size, because it still fell well inside the overscan mask. I ended up separating the background image from [COLOR="Red"]common.window.bars.xml[/COLOR], making a separate import screen, then moving the [COLOR="Red"]common.window.bars.xml[/COLOR] to overlay the backdrop images, with [COLOR="Red"]common.window.background.xml[/COLOR] underneath the backdrop. Then I was free to re-size and reposition the backdrop to fill my frame properly. Once I get aMPed tweaked, I will explore other design ideas for my own satisfaction. Thanks for such a GREAT skin!
