    Hi Vanessa, thanks for releasing another beta.. keeps all of us interested :)

    I was curious to note that when using a MCE remote to navigate the screens, there's a 'back' button that works rather nicely to return to the previous screen. However, using the mouse to navigate the screens leaves me a little disoriented as I cannot see a consistent 'back' link through the different screens. Is there consideration for going 'back' through screens via the mouse? Do you have plans to add globally throughout the interface, 'back' capability. Forgive me if it's already there and I'm not seeing it.
    Regards,
    fc

    P.S. I'm eagerly & patiently awaiting a widescreen version as well ;) 1280x768 / 1680 x 1050, i think.

    Sorry but should she make a 1680 x 1050?
    (or whatever weird resolution someone uses?)

    Sticking to the many standard ones is hard enough already I think.

    Just wait for the 16:9 version for the widescreen resolution!
    It will look great on 1680x1050 anyhow :D

    It would look even better at 1920x1080 then.

    After all THIS is the resolution that people will max out for years.

    Also, it would be better to DOWNSCALE graphics from the top possible res, than UPSCALE them. (this has been proposed in the past by people again)

    1280x720.


    1920x1080 works slow? It's recommended?

    Because MP in short time will use other gfx technology...

    works ok

    anyway, make any nice 16:9, the larger the better (since I will have to upscale less)

    in fact for me the best resolution would be 960x540 since the system would just double everything...

    Excellent Vanessa this skin is looking great.
    I had to change the background alot darker as my mate said it looked a bit "girlish". No offence.

    I'm not sure if this is the right place to ask that you might consider some suggestions.

    The start page seems great except it is a bit hard to read what is selected. (I dont have a very large screen).
    I just edited your screenshot to give you an idea what I mean. I think I made the text a little too big but I hope you get the idea.

    All skins seem to not use the Realestate on the first screen. (Especialy when used on a TV)

    The "Welcome to Media Portal" could be a bit smaller as well. Even moved up under the top left bar a bit.

    Also in My Movies the text is greyed out and a bit hard to see other selections until highlighted. Could be just left bright as you still can see what is highlighted.

    It really is a great looking skin.
    You definately have alot of flare for design.
    Thankyou
