    How are you getting the blur/unfocused effect on the unselected menu items?

    Looks very cool, though! Keep it going!

    Actually this is not a screenshot of the actual skin but a mockup of the goal I'm working towards. While the skin is getting closer to the thing I want some issues aren't yet solved, like the blured effect on the unselected items. Unfortunately I'm not sure this is possible at the moment with the way the skins are created. It should be a simple thing to create however if support was added for using different fonts for selected and unselected items. I can see many other uses for this feature as well.

    Does anybody know if it's possible to right align the text in the menu on the home screen? I tried using
    Code:
    <align>right</align>
    but it didn't work.

    Thought I should give you an update on the current progress of this skin.
    Here's a screenshot of the real thing as it looks now. There have been some changes from the mockup but most of the ideas I had have been realized. Hope you like the result.

    Great looking skin! :)

    Is there any releaseplan? or something like that?
    Would like testing your new skin. :)

    Merry Christmas

    Thank you! :)

    I'm not sure when the skin will be ready for release but I'm guessing it will take some time. I have completed the home menu and most of the lists as well as the movie information but I have yet to complete most of the plugin screens, OSD and popup menus. I will report the progress I make in this thread.

    Merry Christmas to you too!

    From the looks of it this is a 16:9-skin. Am I right?
    If that is the case it is most welcome! I am surprised that so many of the skins are still 4:3. You would expect most people would be using media portal on a widescreen TV or projector, wouldn't you? 2006 is soon here...

    4.5 is really old. I'm not sure 4.5.5 even is a version that actually existed. You should be able to install .NET Framework 4.8.0 on Windows 7 SP1

    Well, I had already recognized your problem, but I still wanted to point out the basic connections once again. Unfortunately, I don't have a fundamentally different solution for you, but with this approach you should achieve your goal. ;) The idea of first setting the current genre colors with the defines is certainly a good one, as...

    Can anyone tell me the step-by-step procedure for bringing up a second channel in pip mode?

Again, if anyone knows how to do this, would be much...
