    Hi,

    Whats your opinion on the top part of the xfactor skin (the black background with the clock, xfactor text and all the menues). I have attached two images and would appreciate your opionion on what way to go.

    Questions to you if I would remove the black part covering the width of the screen;
    1. where should I place the time and recording indicator. Suggestions?
    2. do we need the time at all or can it be removed completely?

    best regards

    The bar is not THAT big that its annoying and there is almost never an important part of the fanart over there. Time seems usefull to me.

    also, if you keep the bar and location of the time constant in every screen (weather, music, youtube, etc etc) this seems more logical to me.

    I have also included an example with time and no black part covering the width of the screen.

    I don't really mind the bar, but being a Plasma TV owner, I have to take burn in into consideration. And the X-Face logo is in about all screens. I use the screensaver though, but having some subtle transparent top bar would be nice, just to have a sexy canvas for the time.
