Cheers
On the Movies & TV Shows screen, Im using the Video Poster view which is perfect. I tried the Poster wall but the images were just slightly too small for my preference.
On a 40" LCD at a distance of about 7ft.

+1 on everything, 42" Plasma at about 3 Meters viewing distance.

The version available in the old thread is already brilliant!
I hope a new alpha/beta with new features (like custom homescreen links to addons) will be available soon.
The only remark i have is that on a 30 inch low res (1024x768) screen the plot is unreadable. It is simply to small, perhaps there can be a setting to make the font bigger (or is that a pain in the ass to make?).
Anyhow looking forward to new developments

Hi Smobbo,
I've slighty increased the font size on all areas of the skin. Hopefully it will improve things.
Regarding things like custom home screen links, i expect i'll sort that after the initial release in a future version.

Welo 2.0 is as much waited as Avatar 2, Ghostbusters3 or Jurassic Park 4!
(not Indiana Jones 5 though, Harrisson is a bit too old now)

The skin hasn't even been released yet - what you're using is a very early build and parts of it are just placeholders.
- liquidskin76 - 2011-02-20
yep, ignore that in the handover build. it's been sort in the new build.
i've been really busy these last two weeks with work and installing a new kitchen at my house, so haven't done much to Welo. I'll be back on the case next week.
cheers
