Hi

first i would say for that great skin! i love it.

i'm relative new to MP. so before i do the whole trial&error thing an question regarding your skin:

i running MP with an Zalman Case with integrated 7"-LCD. configured as clone.
i would like to increase the text size in the scrolling text (filename) when for example playing an mp3 via the
"My Music" option. And, may it is possible to change the font to an better readable one? it looks like Star-Trek -

what XML file i have to change?

thanks

regards

I'm going to be the guy with the other opinion on the 1.07 release. I have to say I liked the style of 1.06 better.
I found it cleaner and my main reason is I use list views for music and videos. With the old version you could see more file displayed (longer list) on the screen at once.
My main reason from switching to MP from MCE was the list views.

Thanks for the new version. Like a lot of it

But, is there a way to switch to the previous version's look (without the horizontal lines running across in the new one.) It just looked really clean and modern..., this one is a little busy to my eye.

Hi all,

I have the issue that when I switch to the MyTV page, there is no way back to the home screen by hitting ESC on Keyboard or Remote.
The only way back is clicking on the () sign at the top-bar.
Also the text of the running show is overlapped by the desciption of the show.
Resolution is 720p.

I do not use Basic-home screen.

Cheers

Seems like I can not get the album view to work with this skin. (I just love that view type - See signature).

I agree : 1.06 like better for me! for now i back to blue...

Thanks for all comments good and bad.... When we decided to change the layout from the "bluetwo standard" we realised that this might upset some people, how ever I will stand by the decision we made. If someone wants to carry on development of foofaraw (classic) send me a pm and I will try and help you as much as I can. However Foofaraw is worked on solely in my lunch hour, and there just isn't enougth time to support another variation.. hence foofarw1610 and foofaraw43 have not received any updates in a while...



All the font's can be changed in the fonts.xml., if you change

<font>
<name>wipeout</name>
<filename>wipeoutfusion</filename>
<height>25</height>
<bold>yes</bold>
<start>0</start>
<end>1536</end>
</font>

for

<font>
<name>wipeout</name>
<filename>Franklin Gothic Medium</filename>
<height>25</height>
<bold>yes</bold>
<start>0</start>
<end>1536</end>

</font>

or something similar you should get the effect you are after...

Seems you can't please all the people all the time as you know! But for me this skin is even better so thanks for that!
