I am currently working on a new Skin called Meteorite Wide. This skin is a little way off even being in alpha stage but I thought I would post some screens to start getting some feedback. This 1366 x 768 widescreen skin, this skin uses a couple of graphics from crns chrome theme (basically the default background and menu selector).
There are a few exciting features that will be making their way into this skin.
* Skin Installer - To make this skin as user friendly as possible I will package the skin up into an installer.
*Patching System - I have also implemented a patching system which is going to have great benefits. This patch system allows me to package fixes into small files which means the user doesn't have to download the 40mb skin for small bug fixes. The patches are .exe files so the user just has to point to the skin directory and the patcher will do the rest. This also allows me to release fixes in between major builds without confusing xmls posted everywhere.
*A menu Generator - jburnette is currently helping me with a menu generator so users can have a custom basichome menu.
Current Screens - Remember this is work in Progress
BasicHome & Shutdown Menu

These are just early previews there is plenty more to be done
