Hiding the Home Menu ribbon

Question 
Hi guys,

I've been digging through the XMLs but I don't really know my way around them. I'm just trying to disable the ribbon on the home screen, the only two choices appear to be to have a static image or the animated one and I'd rather have a nice clean Home screen (more stuff I want to remove in the long run). I assume it would just be a case of find the right include and annotating it out, is this correct? Anyone got any guidance?

Cheers, Andrew.

Never mind, I found it.

Inside the 720p folder with all the XMLs, find the IncludesHome.xml file. On line 16 there's a tag <control type="image">. Annotate from here to the end of the tag on line 25 where it says </control>.

This only hides the animated version of the ribbon though, so it must be enabled in the skin settings. If it's not selected and the static version of the ribbon is used it will still be visible. Hope anyone else who wants to do this finds this post. This looks good with the curtains_diffuse.png background from the Night skin.

Regards.
