Hello Bart,

you know i like your Amber skin. But i miss some Features. And the Amber Skin have potential for one of the best Skins in for Kodi!

- some buttons are cutted at longer words in german. it is not possible to read the content from the button
- please ad a choose options in the skin setting to turn of the colors in the program guide.
- please take a little bit smaller font for the programm guide. the long titel of the movies is not readable
- i know, in the programm guid we can use the forward button from the hand sender to jump 24h forward ore back. the direction is worng. please fix it. when i press right, the time line go to the left. please ad for the fast forward button to move the time line in steps with one hour.
- please ad the logos from the Movies or song artists in the overview and while playing. i can create a proposal how i mean this.
- is it possible to show 3 of the great shelves and not 2 ? The space on the screen is availible.
- please make a choos botton in the skin settings to activate or disable the vote for musik oder movies, disable rotten tomatos and all other votes and let acitiv the IMDB vote
- Disable the background behind the text in the views. is the background of, the background picture is better to see.
 
Android 
i like to use the same skin on TV and my Smart Phone Tablet. Some Features are missing for me
- Player buttons stop, play etc on the home screen. When i go back to the home screen there is no way to stop the music or live tv. You can ad the buttons in the top area on the screen. There are the home button, back and the tooth wheel.
- please make the buttons home button, back and the tooth wheel bigger. they are a little bit small on an tablet or smart phone
- please ad the home button, back and the tooth wheel to all views. 

If you don´t understand me, i can create a proposal and show the picture here.

Is this OK when i write my wishes for the Skin?

regards Stefan

@Grinario, yes, it is quite all right to post your requests here. And please, by all means provide proposals of what you would like to see.

I will look tomorrow in more detail at your requests and let you know what I understood from each one and what I can do and what I cannot. Again, thanks for your feedback.

Regards,

Bart

@Grinario, my apologies for the very late response. I did get your emails, but real life has taken up all of my times this last month. I have not forgotten about your issues or requests. I just got back yesterday to skinning. There is one thing I am working on that I will release today, and then I will start looking at how to accomplish what you asked for. Please bear with me. Thanks.

Regards,

Bart

@Grinario , by all means, please post your proposal.  I am aware of the artist slideshow issue.  I am waiting for the developer to solve a problem the new version of the addon has (it uses a lot of CPU), before chanign the Amber code to support the latest from artist slideshow.  Thanks.
