New skinning concept
#1
As far as I'm designing skin for my needs I'm stack with something which could not be developed now. Hitcher explain me that we can only have one size element for list items.

I imagine that I have one place (home or we can name it "what's hot") for most important stuff for me (it could be recently added, featured, hot stuff, unwatched, etc, etc using built-it features and external add-ones), as more important that bigger size for that thing, you know as bigger and lighter than focus your eyes. I know that it should be followed by the strong alghoritm to control all of that but at the moment as I know I'm stacked with xbmc limitations.

So what I imagine, the place with movies, biggest poster for hot stuff, movies based on release day and unwatched, next smaller are featured movies as fanart, and so on... I can use static templates with content arrangement or do it dynamic.

And total mix, movies, shows and music, bigger, small, smaller:

What do you think about it? Maybe it is a worth to broke the rules and do improvements with skin development? Or just if door are closed can we use a window anyway?
