Skin: Razor (1 Viewer)

That is a relief to hear Raven!!

Please do not interpret what I've said in any other way than an expression of great admiration of your work. However, I have seen far too much art- and designwork go cluttered when designers have lost perspective on their work and have not known when to stop fidgeting with it (not saying that you don't! ) so I just needed to spill my guts.

My personal opinion is that you got it exactly right the first time. The only change I might approve of in the latest CVS is the slight brightening of the colour of the background. The original looked a little dull on my projector. It looked better on LCD though!

Again - big respect! And please post when you have made new changes so we all can have a look.

Im with you Kamrat,

The telly looks like a laptop and the DVD cover thing is ordinary. I loved the film reel. The tvguide is awesome. Its simplicity was what made it attractive. No disrespect to you Raven, just constructive criticism. Keep up the good work.

Here's a screenshot of a design I'm currently thinking of going with.
Of course nothing is set in stone. I really appreciate your comments. I totally agree the telly looks like a laptop!

Looks much better at first glance!! It's hard to say how it compares on the big screen but as soon as it's in CVS I'll have a look.

Raven - what you are doing to the look of MP is a real quantum leap forward!

I've commited the new iconset. It should be in the next CVS. Let me know what you think. By popular demand I also decided to switch back to the reel icon for my videos. Not sure if I'll keep it later on, but for now it'll be there.

Raven, have you considered a basic home screen for future development? The bluetwo version is getting some great reactions, and I for one would love to see it as a standard skin option within MP.

I haven't planned one yet but it's likely I'll make one in the future.

4:3 pleeeeeeeeeease???

Still the same response I gave you last time you asked. No, there will not be a 4:3 version of Razor.

Maybe you could give me some advice on how to port it to 4:3?
I have tried to use it and it seems not much needs to be edited in order to get it to work.

One question on another matter though:

It seems that Razor is using the images from BlueTwo in my installation. e.G. when I remove the BlueTwo folder it sais: "This skin is outdated"... Also it uses the round BlueTwo buttons on the top left, you know? These Shutdown buttons aso.
Any ideas?
