[QUOTE="rsbrux, post: 948564, member: 49539"] At the risk of outing myself as sooo last century, I have to say that I am disappointed with the new DefaultWide. [LIST=1] [*]The old version was simple, functional and intuitive. [*]I understand the desire for "eye candy", but isn't that the purpose of "unofficial" skins or the new Titan? [*]The control menu (power, etc.) is now hidden; you have to be psychic to find it. [*]The icons in same for "close" and "power" were easily distinguishable in the old version. I couldn't identify a "close" icon in the new one. [*]The home screens waste a lot of real estate, l prefer the verticl menu in the old classic home. [*]Most views seem to have smaller font but fewer lines. Huh? For example, I can now see only 4 albums at once. [*]The TV guide seems to display logos smaller than before, they don't fill the available space on each line. [*]Genre highlighting isn't working for me, but this could be due to inadequate information from my (cable) provider. [*]One major improvement is that long music track titles are no displayed without scrolling in Music - Now Playing, and in other screens when music is playing: HOORAY! [*]Another is the availability of a lot more settings within the on-screen settings plugin. [/LIST] What are the chances of getting a simple, functional, intuitive skin without any fancy background images, like the old DefaultWide? [/QUOTE]
