Hi TheBadgerKing,
keep on working on that.
It might look crazy, but that’s good.
It’s a pity that there are still only a few themes for Media Portal, so every additional skin would be great.
When it’s finished I think a lot of people would like to use it.
You should test it on your TV to see if it’s to dark, but I think you...

You can just write an XML? Well well well, that opens new possibilities :). I will look at this :) . Next week I'll be on vacations, and I'll bring my PDA and laptop, but I won't have permanent Internet connection, so that may be a problem to get it done any time soon. I'll try anyway.
