@wizard123 loving the skin, just what I've been looking for clean, simple, uncluttered & stylish. I do have two observations to make, which I hope are constructive:

• The TV Guide with 11 rows is a little too small to be viewed comfortably from a distance, i.e. on a 32" screen from the couch approximately 2 meters away.
  • The ability to switch to a 7 row, as is the case in the Titan skin, would be great.

• The TV preview screen, when TV is on, in the EPG and home screen is too small

I hope that what I am trying to say makes sense. Thanks once again for all your hard work...

Hi @wizard123, you wrote "MovingPictures *required" but I don't use it. What do I have to expect if I use your skin nevertheless? Or what do I have to change?

I designed it fairly small so it does not overlap other items that you might want to see, i will keep it in mind though.

It was designed using 50" screen at 3.5m away which looks great for me but i can look into adding a 7 line guide in an update.

Technically you can use it without moving pictures it just means you will have to use the videos tile to enter myvideos and movies tile won't do anything.

I will be adding questions like Hawkeye's to the wiki here for your information:

Yes, I did notice that and I see the lack of space is an issue here and unfortunately I don't have any great idea that might be of help with this.

Perfect, that's great. Thanks again
