When trying to improve gradient banding on the backgrounds, i mistakely used the wrong colour tint on that part. It was grey. Now it has a slight blue'ish tint.
I'm planning on changing it, however wanted to check something first...
Looking at it now, it looks more vivid and i think it makes the background more alive. What does everyone else think? Grey or slightly blue tinted?
I can post screen comparisons if needed (or check Hitchers screen comparisons from thread page 3).
Thanks
[EDIT:] so you all know... Welo has both colours in his mockups, hence i how came to use the wrong one!
Firstly, congrats on the progress so far. The skin is looking like it will be one of the few that in use do the mock ups justice.
A couple of comments :
1) I like being able to jump straight to a different section and like a few of the other posters, I select a view and stick with it.
2) I think that it will be hard to judge the difference between the grey and blue-ish middle section from a screen shot. It would be a bit more effective to be able to judge them on a TV screen while using the skin.
3) I have noticed one small bug, when you scroll through the TV shows in the recently added section on the main screen, the drop shadow on the image changes on the bottom edge. Instead of following the shape of the box, it goes straight down. I also have to admit that I'm not a fan of using the screen grab as the image for new shows as seems to be the practice with most if not all skins, I'd rather see a poster with the episode details below.
Anyway, enough nit picking. Keep up the good work and I look forward to seeing future releases.
P.S. Kudos to Welo for producing such a tidy looking design.
