[QUOTE="Anthony Parry, post: 1222222, member: 160205"] Hello WMC Skin Users! First of all WMC skin is a really nice skin for MP2 and the original version reflects the actual style of WMC really well! However, while i loved the menu structure and ease of use of WMC I would always be sure to add skins and make it look even simpler - and so i've done the same to the WMC Skin. The changes I have made are for just 2 reasons: I really like plain simple backgrounds, no patterns, no animations - just one flat colour and secondly I use an OLED TV which makes anything coloured black absolutely stunning, especially in contrast to white text / objects. I have attached a few files that will help you achieve the same look. The files are sized for 4K resolution, but as theyre very simple, they will scale down to 1080p perfectly. I use WMC Dark as my base theme and the images should be added to the images file in the Dark theme section of the WMC folder in plugins. As well as a few simple backgrounds, there's also replacements for how programmes scheduled to record show in the guide and to change the MP2 logo to my rendition of what WMC logo may have looked like had it ever been given the Windows 8 / 10 treatment by Microsoft! Over time I intend to simplify some other images - buttons etc to make them flatter and cleaner - I will update this post with new additions. Here's a few shots of my screen: [ATTACH]190217[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]190218[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]190219[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]190221[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]190220[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
