[QUOTE="Lord Raiden, post: 216253, member: 62662"] Hi everyone. I hope this is the right forum for this. What I'm after is a basic theme for Media Portal that works well with the visually impaired. My mom is up in her early 60's and due to diabetes in the family, she has issues seeing small fonts on the TV, and Media Portal has plenty of those. They don't bother me, but they bother her because they're too small. I've gone through my entire media portal setup and made everything as use friendly to her as I can, even boosting fonts in places to larger, more readable sizes. The problem with that is, while my Media Portal based HTPC is better, she has a far easier time reading the fonts and navigating on our Neuros OSD due to the way files and other stuff is displayed on the screen. [URL="http://www.raiden.net/?cat=2&aid=326&pid=3"]Here's an example[/URL] of what the menus and files look like when displayed in the Neuros OSD. I'd like something similar to that for my Media Portal theme. IE, no special side items, no extra graphics. Just raw spartan menu selections. Eye candy really isn't a big deal here. I'm after ease of viewing for a visually impaired individual and ease of navigation. Any help or pointers on where to find a theme that'll do this for me or ways to make my own is welcome. I know my mom will appreciate any help you can give me. :) [/QUOTE]
