Again, I want to say thanks for this skin. I feel it is brilliant - I am not sure if you are the first, but I have never seen a main menu/sub-menu interface such as what you have with this skin. I love the way it works and how, even on the home screen, you can 'tuck' it away when not in use and give more real estate to the widgets.
At this point, you incorporated enough of my feedback that I believe Horizon will remain my skin of choice for quite some time to come.
This said, below is a consolidated list of feature requests I feel would make this skin perfect - for me of course.
I have raised these points before and in most cases you have responded one way or another - I raise them again, not to be a pain, but only because I feel quite strongly about them and to centralize them so you can see them one last time. Regardless of what you do or do not do with below, I will not bug you about them again.
1. Option to set transparency level of fanart backgrounds.
I know you have noted in past posts that this is not something you are planning on doing. I hope you will reconsider - this will be the last you hear of it from me.
2. Improved user experience when changing views.
You have indicated this is on your to-do list, but is a decent chunk of work.
3. Provide option to show time remaining instead of elapsed time on seek bar.
I know you indicated you wanted to keep the same sort of info (time) in the same location on the seek bar and it would be too cluttered to show everything (hence my request for a toggle). However, looking at how a few other programs handle it (apple music and simple control remote), it seems fairly standard practice to have the time remaining show at the very left of the seek bar and elapsed time on the very right. I think adding time remaining to before 'now playing' could work in Horizon - in the event a remaining/elapsed toggle is not feasible/desirable.
4. Option to set the background for each home screen item to random fanart.
Bello 6 has incorporated this very nicely - it provides a number of different options for 'system' generated backgrounds - some are styled in such a way, that would not fit well Horizon - I am speaking more of the available content.
That is it, that is all. Thanks again for this great skin and, as noted above, regardless on the what you do or do not do regarding the points above, you will not hear a peep about them from me again - unless I am saying 'thanks' because you have incorporated some of them.
