[QUOTE="mortstar, post: 539224, member: 66294"] From the screen survey carried out by MediaPortal Team only 1 year ago, 33% of users had a resolution of 1920x1080. That means 67% of users do not use this resolution. The largest majority was 1280x720 + 1366x768 at about 36% (I've lumped these together as they are almost identical and split the vote unnecessarily when comparing 'HD Ready' vs 'Full HD'). By creating textures suitable for a 1920x1080 skin you are putting higher workload on HTPCs for the vast majority of users as they have to store larger textures that then need to be downscaled - all using extra resources on the machine whilst MediaPortal is running. Also, if the skin is developed for 1920x1080 then perhaps this will look very cluttered downscaled to 1280x1720 etc. [/QUOTE]
