I have been through the rigorous pleasure of setting up Hyperspin and the only easy part was skinning thanks to the Hypertheme.exe . I would like to use all the assets you have available to achieve at least one view in my skin on par or above a hyper spin wheel and collection view. I can do the basic fanarts trailer and thumbnail skinning but was curious on how to call things like logo into play. Are you using something like "$INFO[ListItem.Property(logo)" or is the only way to configure in the context menu and trick the code by placing logos in another folder like title snaps. Really like the AEL addon. Hard to get it to scrape whole selection for me but individual metadata always works.

I'm not a skinner myself, just a coder, so the help I can give you is limited

Have a look here to know all the metadata and artwork set by AEL.

For the case of a view for ROMs, I guess the infolabels you use in the skin will be like,

PHP Code:

$INFO[ListItem.Art(title)]
$INFO[ListItem.Art(snap)]
$INFO[ListItem.Art(fanart)]
$INFO[ListItem.Art(banner)]
... 


Extrafanart is not currently implemented but I will code it soon.

I was thinking something like this that fits the media center feel with animated pngs video fanart logo and thumbnail.
Hyperspin uses generic names like artwork_1 and artwork_2 etc.from what I remember. KODI could implement the clearart and character tags for animated pngs.
Also thinking about a more arcade theme used in hyperspin for fun.
