Wow.... this skin is incredible. First let me say, I'm using the SVN version I got off of the passion repository, I'm not sure if that's the latest or not. I just have a few questions. I'm sure most of what I want to do is probably already possible and I'm just overlooking something but here it goes:

1. When using the Hulu add-on with this skin, it allows me to choose Hulu view for everything except for the item lists themselves. For example, I can use it for the menus right up until you browse to a content area with actual artwork/videos, then it's no longer an option. All of the other views either squish or stretch Hulu's images so I was really disappointed. Is it possible to enable this view somehow?

2. Is it possible to play trailers in advanced launcher with this skin? I know it's possible to do by editing an XML in Cirrus so I figured I'd ask about this since Cirrus is your skin.

3. You know how you press down twice to get to the full view? In this view it shows a large cover image. Is it possible to stop or prevent the gray bars from showing around the cover image? I thought maybe it was just the background panel showing through, but I tried making an image the same size as the screen area and it just scaled the picture down and the bars remained.

4. I've set the path to studio icons in the options, but none of my studio icons are showing up in advanced launcher. Any idea why that is and how to fix it?

5. Most skins have support for current condition weather backdrops, I don't see an option for it in this skin, is it possible?

6. None of my plots seem to be rolling on their own, except in the extended view after I press down twice. I don't see an option to enable plot rolling in the settings, am I missing something?

7. Is it possible to turn off the faded backgrounds? If not, it would be a nice feature in combination with the alternate menu feature.

Feature Requests:

1. In a future release it would be cool to see a bottom menu option as well as a text menu option. The icons are great but the ability to choose between the two would be amazing.

2. For Advanced Launcher, it would be nice if we could have the default fanart image for the sub-section appear for all items in a list. For example, if I make a Games for Windows section, the fanart used for the Games for Windows main menu item would be used for every item in the Games for Windows list, except for those which have fanart otherwise specified. It's better than having a blank fanart and would save a lot of time for those with big item lists as opposed to manually selecting the same fanart over and over again for each entry.

thanks
