Your mod is the only current Nox version with cases, but there is no true wall view with this feature. The wall below would likely suffice if you reduced the size of the poster to accommodate the cases.
Just an idea...I don't want give you any extra work when you could be enjoying the work you've already done. I have no idea what to do with the onfocus condition. You would have to replicate the muted overlay effect of the unfocused poster onto the surrounding case.
Spacing issues could also be a problem...just an idea.
Good idea for the wall view... I do not mind the extra work... It makes sense to me... that being said....
The first time we crossed paths on these forums I asked you (what I thought at the time to be) an innocuous question... since then I have tried to carefully word myself... My question was about code I posted when asking for help in solving an issue I was having when I first started learning about skinning. You never answered my original post for help but what did happen is that my exact code was posted in your thread... you actually used the thread start date against me in our first conversation 
I guess the whole point of this rant is that I've tried to work with you. I've even offered to collaborate and you declined. Instead what happened was responses saying "I do not want to be involved, I am done modding" but after saying that I suddenly saw opinions on what I was doing (going so far as to question my "artistic vision") My letting go of things has been rewarded with upsetting comments and demands for changes in a skin you apparently do not even actually use (yeah... guess how much that statement pissed me off) . While I like some of your ideas... there is an issue... take the knives ice guy and when you "attacked" him calling him slimey not realizing it is the same thing you scolded steveb for doing in the Aeon Nox 5 thread (manners police). That being said I have moved on and felt it was needed to be said to make that a permanent thing and not something that would fester further... I will most likely add your recommendation for cases in Wall view it is a good idea and fits the theme of offering cases. It is up to you how we proceed after hearing my comments cause it is not meant to push you away only to try and help show how frustrating things can be sometimes. Hopefully things won't take a turn for the worse but I could no longer not say anything... apologies to all reading this it has now become too long but I am committed and what's done is done 
This is an enthusiast forum for this skin, Mike, I am enthusiastic about anything that goes on here. By the wording of your post, it sounds like a professional relationship. I just add things for fun because I like them. I am not trying to gain sway as a coder. I don't want to mod much of anything else because I enjoy what I have. I give advice because I like to and I think I'm capable of doing so based on some experience with this skin. I used your label for movies weeks later. I didn't steal it. I liked it. And I didn't expect anyone would mind. Everyone is convinced you are stealing their priceless ideas. That's probably how this post started.
As for my comments directed at other members. I told off steveb because he told a new poster that he was a lonely loser who should go f***k himself. I can't hardly see the problem in that. Steve was way out there and the guy never returned. It is my opinion. This is a forum. The two connect, to me. The Knives guy was talking to me for an hour until I realized he was duping me into changing something, not necessarily because it was broken but because he wanted it that way. I still helped the guy, so I can't see anything wrong with that, either. I just told him that, in the future, he should not dupe others into doing work for him. I'm not a kid, but I sometimes think I'm talking to them. I not stupid either. Not at all, so you can't just have one over me. Knives never replied to say otherwise. After pushing me for an hour, I never heard from him again. I am fairly certain I was right. If not, I'd address him again. I make mistakes.
My keyboard is not barbed, but based on your comment, I think you have the impression I'm out to attack you. Sorry, it was probably the artistic intent comment. I get into some of the design ideas you post, and after some community influence, the final result is not always as great as what you started with. What I meant to say is I think you have better taste than them. There are few if any personal attacks here. If you have other ideas, you're not reading closely enough. Look at all the threads I post; clearly, I'm here to help.
Now come on, you made me post a wall of text to say I'm sorry, but I'm still following your thread. I tinker with things, so of course I have my own version of the skin. That doesn't mean I don't have some taste in what works and what doesn't. A forum is a place to find information and provide advice, but everyone should remain respectful of others.
So I guess the next piece of advice is to not take yourself too seriously.
I am a friendly person, I promise.
P.S. I'm trolling here because I'm interested in what is going on. And yes, I do use your skin, but it's on my laptop, which is not used all that often. My advice is based on that of an observer. I'm not wanting to jump in and take over. Whatever you do is fine with me. If you don't want my opinion, just say so. Using your skin is not a requirement to provide an opinion.
Joking
