skin teaser: olbia

[n@boleo]

Nearly perfect here ! All translations fit ! Just a little glitch on main screen with long record title

Man I can't wait to get home and try this!

EDIT: Well, I finally made it home and installed Olbia. I love the horixontal menu, too bad it's only on the main menu (maybe something for the future?). Also I find that the font size of the main menu icons is too small. Maybe it's just my TV but I found them difficult to read. Are those sizes hard coded or is that something I can adjust through the skin.xml file?

Also, as a suggestion, is it possible to have the font size of the highlited menu option use a larger font size than the rest of the menus?

just edit main menu/skin.xml and look for the textstyles. you can edit the whole skin, there is nothing hardcoded there...

i think, i'll release this skin today in the next few hours. i will upload two photoshop-files to the wiki, so anyone interested can easily try to skin other plugins.

i will skin cdplayer and the actual my-series myself, maybe weather-plugin. but this will take maybe one week.

thanks for your help!

Hey, this is looking very very nice!

But it doesn't look quite right when you try to cancel a recording, the "Are you sure you want to cancel this recording?" text are moved outside the box (which looks a bit big btw ).


Edit: whups, didn't see your new release... I'll go try that one instead

If someone would skin Xrecord,Video Archive and XSearch, I would be in heaven.

I tried the teaser yesterday and I also found the font too small to read comfortably. Also, shows with longer titles (for mr it was Law&Order: Criminal Intent) run really close to the date/time. Maybe putting it atop the vertical menu across from Main Menu?

This is easily the best looking skin out there, I can't wait till it's complete!

I'm trying my hand at skinning XSearch now. I'll give myself until Monday to get it done, being as this is my first skinning project.

you can download photoshop files from the wiki, could be helpful. thanks for skinning the xseries, since i don't use those plugins....

dottore, this looks really, really good! Any chance of getting a selection of colors in the future?

[dottore]

i have planned to add appearance-manager support to the skin. we'll have to wait for the next gbpvr-version for a full support. backgrounds and selection colors (currently it's cyan) can be changed in future versions.
