[QUOTE="hardcorehire, post: 770454, member: 71522"] Added Codeplex page as promised for project details and source code. Go To [url=http://mp2metro.codeplex.com/]MP2 Metro[/url] and click on the downloads page to retrieve the skin source code. (Not sure how to use the actual source code yet) Place all the files under the folder MetroSkin in the incubator folder in your MP2 source code and rebuild. One bug that needs looked at is I have noticed if you already have MP2 open and you change the skin to Metro theme sometimes it doesn't load (I believe this is due to the fact that the MenuModel is already loaded and when I create a new instance in metro skin it freezes) If you want just close and reopen after changing skin to metro should work Ok or you can go to the default settings at C:\ProgramData\Team MediaPortal\MP2-Client\Config go to user folder under here and manually modify Mediaportal.UI.SkinEngine.Settings.SkinSettings.xaml Change settings to reflect "Skin" <string>MetroSkin</string> and "Theme" to <string>Metro</string> Still working on the skin actively please review the code and read the documentation from the codeplex site to get a basic understanding and goals of the skin. You can download the documentation if you click on Documentation tab then click page info to view file attachments. Also I started a thread called MP2 Cheat sheet with general details on skin/plugin developement if you get stuck. If anyone is interested in helping with this skin please contact me through PM and we can discuss. Thanks [/QUOTE]
