    I would perfer a darker color - but I'll probably use it anyway (if/when it gets released/finnished)

    tank you guys for all the positive replies ! :D

    Sorry about the links not working, tried it at home and it worked fine over there maybe posting the screenshots on another location will help, I'm going to try that.

    At the moment I'm working on the TV screen but it's not ready yet, i'll post some screens when it is ready.

    Cheezy : For the moment i'll concentrate on 4:3 because I'm using a CRT TV.

    Quiller : I like the idea of an animated background but what did you have in mind ?

    Anyway, I'm going to finish some screens and post them when they are ready.

    great work Joostie

    i hope that it will be finished from you ;-) . i have enough from those skins
    where i think "great, this could be my default skin", and then it would not
    be finished. that happens many times for me in the last year :-(

    Something subtle. The sky moving, maybe a breeze in the grass at the bottom. It would have to be done right, but it could turn out amazing!

    Very, very nice! This blue night colours, with some transparent OSD should be winning combination. Just keep good work, please don't give up. So many skiners just give up :(

    wree you logged into google when you tested those links? i think they are the *actual* location of the files within the google system and you need to be logged in as the owner to access them. Picasa Web gallery is fine, just post the public gallery URL instead of the direct image links :)

    keep up the good work.

    I've just created a screen image for the epg in Photoshop and really want to know what you think. Do you think it is necessary to insert the tv preview screen somewhere ?

    Maybe you guys have some suggestions or improvement. Please let me know.:D

    Very nice and clear. Readability is very important. I think the TV previewscreen is not a must, but you could show it in the program details part on the right.

    With almost all skins I fand it hard to read the scrolling details text (like with PMIII in the IMDB info screen). I think you could shrink the guide part a bit an create more room for the program details and you could add the Chanal logo somewhere.

    just my 2 cents. :) keep it up!

    edit: The time-bar! I would surely mis that. I find that part unclear in many skins to.
