Alaska is on GitHub as per the first post of this thread.

Cool!

Anyone up'd a copy anywhere other than GitHub - for non Github users ?

You don't have to be a github user, you can download an archived version of the skin right from the GitHub project page and it will be the most recent version.

i've installed the latest nighty SVN on my laptop (windows 7) and my XBOX... Alaska works fine on Windows but fails to load the icons in the settings menu on my xbox and most of the fanart in the main menu boxes. Anyone having this issue?

This may have already been discussed, im not sure. But 56 pages of pointless babble and posts of photoshop mock-ups makes it hard to search through and find that little nugget.

Thanks in advance guys!
Cheers.

Yep can cofirm this - latest T3CH and alot of Alaska is missing on Xbox....

can't say i've tried this yet but i'm planning on it soon. this is the alaska fork for use with plex. some stuff had to be changed because plex uses an older version of the skinning engine which i'm guessing the xbox does too? in any case, the stuff changed to work with plex may also make it compatible with the xbox. worth a shot.

Really? It looks nothing like Alaska to me, other than the light background.

This skin is great Hitcher! But ...

... can can't wait anymore, so when is it possible to download 'nightly builds' via Github!? The last one (Initial Release) is four days old.

Thanx

That's because it hasn't been worked on in four days by hitcher. Check the "Network", you will see others involved with the project too.

go hitcher... i'm happry that you are working on that project
looks very good ....
thanks to djh to do the "ground"work

If you would this skin to work more smoothly on xbox go into the media folder of the Alaska skin and open up the filter.png file in your favorite photoshop program and drop the resolution to 960x540 or lower also go into the media/list folder and do the same for vignette.png and vignette2.png.

Should you not say that alaska looks a lot like that?

Considering that theme has been up there for months prior to alaska being developed
