Someone should create a better skin that is readable from 20 feet away on a standard 20 inch television.

20 feet away on a 20 inch??? Dude, you need to sit just a little closer to your tv. Try 10 feet.

Yes I exagerated. I have a 26 or 32 inch television (forgeting which size), and I sit maybe 15 feet away. I can see most everything.

this looks terrific!! Very minimalistic, very high contrast. What is the largest font size you have seen used for the menus on this skin (if I decide to change the font sizes)? I want to get something large for those folks that are getting older, and have a hard time reading. Need something for a 60 year old great grandmother who wants to just point and click and have it work.

Thanks for your reply. In my configuration this setting is set to "no". To avoid misunderstandings, the MP window size changes on screen resolution changes, MP always fulfills the whole screen. Also, the home screen buttons size is adjusted. Only the font size is not adjusted to the new screen resolution.
