[QUOTE="2BitSculptor, post: 744763, member: 65661"] Because I want to get the skin operational for my HTPC as soon as possible, I will approach the screens I use in day-to-day operation first. I started working on Last.FM, I will tranfer the appropriate TVSeries layout changes over to Movies and other media screens later. As a result of sizing the fanart space down to the width of the screen, keeping the aspect ratio (1080x602), and set the fanart images to keepaspectratio and be centered, I added a soft oval mask to the texture control, so odd shaped images from last.fm would blend in nicely. I also duplicated the basichome_fanart_overlay (at colordiffuse=60ffffff) on top of the fanart, replacing the previous overlay, as the fanart was displayed with some transparency from the mask and was too diminished with the Lyrics_overlay. I might create a more appropriate (less transparent) mask later. now just gotta move all the stuff on top over to the middle of the screen. - Chuck [/QUOTE]
