Request: Hi Resolution Skins (widescreen if possible)

[daphatty]

Maybe I am in the minority, but I would like to see some Hi-Res skins for use on HDTV's. I'm currently outputting GB-PVR to my 30" Widescreen HDTV (via DVI) and some of the skins available just look drab and stretched. Would anyone be up to the challenge of creating some skins that are better suited for TVs of this type? I'd be happy to test them and provide screen shots of their output on my TV. (Personally, I'd love to see a widescreen version of BlueMCE.)

What are you using for a input to your TV? MVP or PVR350?

[daphatty]

I'm using a WinTV-PVR USB2 for video encoding and an ATI Radeon 7000 for output to my HDTV via the DVI interface.

You basically want a 16x9 version...right?
I'll make one, if you'll test/debug it

Well this is cool, can't wait, as I think the skins look good on my 57" widescreen. Then again, I thought Hersheys made good chocolate at one time......

All I'm going to do, is modify one of my existing ones for 16x9. Mountain Lake OK with you guys, or what? Give me some colour/layout/background suggestions...

I like a darker background if given a choice, that would be my only request.

I will test any and all 16x9 skins made so if you skinners are up to the challenge let me know.
