I love what mcborzu has done with the Night skin and also missed some aspects on Aeon so I am working on putting a 'new' skin together with aspects of both.
Almost all of the media views are straight out of Night - so all credit there goes to mcborzu. I'm primarily focusing on the menus, dialogs, info screens, etc.
At this point it is maybe 98% done...getting there. :-)
