it's a little detail, but well, I like corporate things.
Basically it changes the blue color texts in the Weather/WeatherPlus section into the corporate CirrusEx orange.
It would be nice if Butcha could make this mini-tweak into 2.05

Cheers,
2 very nice little edits there that make a big difference
The weather screen looks more fitting now, its still got double images and needs work, but it looks more fitting with the rest of the skin.
I like these little changes and edits nowall... Do you have any more
Is it possible the volume bar was to the right to avoid overlapping the time/date etc when on the home screen and reducing the volume? I personally don use xbmc for volume control so never noticed but for the sake of OCD i have moved it to 480 lol
Ive added your settingds backgrounds in and i agree that the second version you posted were the better of the 2.
Im considering adapting your grey background and the boxed icons to work as part of the home screen in the same way. They are very nice and look very clean.
My revo moves slowly between menu images (as menu/system images are not dds) so i am constantly looking for the fastest/lightest/most elegant and efficent way to run mt HTPC. Thanks to CEv2 this is possible without loosing out on any features
@butcha Looking forward to the next release, let me know if you need it bug testing and ill get right on it. Also looking forward to seeing how others use this skin, its so configurable itll be nice to see how it fits in with everyone tastes and HTPC power etc
Edit:
@butch... Yea, I think all the posters need increasing in size margonally... including the focussed item. They dont need to be increased a lot, but i do think there is a lot of wasted black space around them that could be used to increasing their visability at 10ft... if that makes sense lol
It may be better to do it as an option rather than increase them for everyone as some may like the smaller version if they are viewing on a smaller set such as a laptop etc... on my 47" 1080p tv from 10ft they are a tad small.. Maybe an option "Enable large Posters in fanart" in the skin settings?
