Hi all

After more or less usefull suggestions (like weather fanart or artist viewtype) here is my first actual work for XBMC:

The Director posters based on the movie genre icons by asphinx.

The whole thing started when i thought I need extra genre icons for my Chaplin and James Bond movies, after that I thought I need another for my Kurosawa movies. Switchin to a slightly different style with it I started to make more and more of them and now here it is the Director poster edition 1.
Each Poster consits of the actual genre poster background by asphinx, a slightly faded greyscale picure of and (when I was able to find one) a signature of the director.

Very cool.
Wow, these look great. But how do I install them?

Thanks in advance
I don't know if you're still working on these, but I though I would give you the link to the original work file, in case that helps you. Smile

These look great.

I love how they match the the genre series and now the music genres.

Do you think you could make a default one for missing directors?
but having no job can make u pretty busy.
Here i have the 2 that started everything for my- worked them in original style of the genre poster until I realized that wouldnt work for my Kurosawa movies so I started the other ones.
