Thanks, Emph.
I started with the boxes left-aligned (see filmstrip view) and tried the indented version for the details view.
I haven't yet decided which one I prefer.
I found the labels to be a bit "overpowering" when they were bolded/all caps.
It's easily changeable though.
All the best,

Just to point out exactly what I mean, I did these:
I guess you're right about the bold font for the labels. It could also be tricky to make it look better than it does now.

I haven't decided which margin(s) to go for yet. I think it's all a matter of preference really.
I'm happy with the balance between readability and design for the labels.I guess you're right about the bold font for the labels. It could also be tricky to make it look better than it does now.
Can't seem to find a way to save a playlist in my music. Is this missing?
Great skin by the way.
No, but the hidden menu with all the buttons should come up if you either use the right-key to step right a couple of times (NOTE 1), or use the mouse and hover it close to the right edge of the screen.
(NOTE 1): Because of a weird bug in MediaPortal (or design-feature) you have to use the UP-key when focus is on the up/down-control. up/down-control is only visible if your playlist has more than 8 items.
(Not user-friendly, I know, but MP was apparantly not designed to work with a menu on the right side of the screen, only the left)
Thanks for the reply, but I can see access to playlists etc. but as I use the scrobbler function a lot, in otherskins I can save the created playlist. Great to do when you start with a couple of songs and wait to see where the computer takes you.
In this skin whilst I can call up a playlist, or view the current one, I can't save the current one. I also can not turn on or off the scrobble feature. I might have a go at creating what I am talking about and let you have a look.

Correction - and sorry for wasting your time. All works fine if you have at least 8 items in your playlist. Caught me out in testing as I am an impatient beggar. Who needs a playlist of only 7 songs anyhow.:sorry:
That would be perfect!
