I like the fond and I see that you have a direction regarding the style, which is good.
I like the Time capsule view, especially combined with list (and I also like the vignette you used on time capsule view).
The critique: I don't like the colors that much but the that should be decided when more feedback comes. I like the fact that it is clean but I'm not sure that I like the minimalistic style of it. I'm not against minimalism but I know that there are [in development] some skins (MiniMeedia, Serenity, xTV, maybe other ones) and i don't think that another one is needed, or is worth developing since this skins are [will be] niche ones (@
keeganl you said you want something like MediaStream or Aeon - the next big thing for xbmc skins - so I guess that something more complex, that addresses more users). If you don't want a minimalistic skin than you have a lot of wasted space in especially in the home screen and the time capsule view.
Anyhow the design looks good visually and the layout can be tweaked if you want. We should receive more feedback on this.
PS: I am working on some mock-ups of my own for this project (which I understand that is firstly a brainstorming and secondly a project). It is a slow process because I'm not so good with graphic editing tools. I will use your idea for the home screen with some tweaking.
PPS: keeganl you should ask the moderator to move this thread to the developer forums since it is still so conceptual. There are more skins under development, and even more concepts out there and that's why it would be a good for feedback imo.
