Excellent work, Hitcher, my fav XBMC skin by far.
Quick question: how do I remove the red "play" icon that appears on the posters?
I'm pretty sure I saw the option somewhere but can't find it now that I need it.
Edit: I found it, under Settings > Alaska > General.
I quite like the idea behind the icon though, I just find it a bit too intrusive.
I would personally prefer (and use) it if it was 3/4 of its actual size and placed on the bottom left of the poster.

Ok, I'm a convert... ...almost. I've installed "Alaska Revisited" and "Alaska Revisited Mod" (don't know the difference) and the only thing I can't do, is figure out how to use the different "Colour Themes"... Did I read correctly, that they're not in there as yet? Or, possibly, someone hasn't updated/created them for the new 'Revisited/Mod' packages? Secondly, can we still use our own "HomeIcons" in the same way as we're used to? Thanks, in advance!

You rock!
Those last screen shots are beautiful.
One more question. I found a bit strange that the watched icon is on top on the selected item and on the bottom on the non selected one. Is it a bit odd?
When I hit next, does the icon dispare from the top and repares on the bottom?
Thx again.

I think I read it in the original "[RELEASE] Alaska Revisited" thread.

I use "Banner" for tv shows and "Episode" for episodes but there is isen't any good options for seasons that use the same behaviour or design and I would love to se that as one of the new viewtypes.

No themes yet but someone is working on one.
Yes, skin.alaska.revisited/extras/homeicons

I don't think I made myself clear enough, I want another viewtype to complement episodes and banner that use vertical scrolling and a picture for the selected season. I made a quick paint mock up to illustrate what I mean.

Well I've been meaning to change the code for the Watched status for awhile now to make it more efficient and now seemed like a good time.
By the way, the next update will be a little longer than I originally stated because I'm changing a lot more than I'd anticipated - it's a big update.

When can we expect this to be released? And will it be available as a new Alaska version or as an update of the existing one?
