[QUOTE="Anonymous, post: 6790"] Here's my two and half cents... Media Portal should come with at least two skins. I think the current default, MCE, is ideal and then another should be selected. The rest, like Harley's Xmas skin, should go into a skin library similiar to what you would find at nullsoft for winamp. (plugins, too.) I completely agree with MrMario that a skin versioning system needs to be implemented. Updating every skin for every release is a lot of work and ridiculous. Two skins would be manageable for each release, I think. The library could specify what version it is compatible with and it's up to the author/designer to update it.. not some guy who is already burning the midnight oil on this and other aspects of the MP project. I think we would need to go one step further... once the skin engine becomes stable, there needs to be some version control that prevents skin engine changes in minor releases so everytime a new release is made, all the skins don't have to be updated. Major releases are a different story. Now if we just had a perfect world... Ciao! [/QUOTE]
