But let´s face it, if you´re running a media center, you probably have 500GB+ of disk space, will 1GB (if that much) make any difference at all? I know I have converted all my fanart/folder JPGs to BMP and they didn´t even sum up to 500MB.
So, what´s your opinion on this subject - compressed or uncompressed as default?
Actually the skin uncompressed (without the .xbt) is lower than higher. About 60MB less in the final size.
The problem with doing it without the .xbt is that we would loose themes. Remember that the 'themes of AeonMQ 2' swap background images, not just the textures and all the other skins. This is cool and unique feature of the skin, and not good to lose it I guess.
