i think bp is free to screw around with pm3 and show what he has done to his heart content... i dont think anyone thinks he is the orginal author and i dont think there is any confusion.

-the help screen i think is a good idea for usability but looks a little too bubbly to fit the sleakness of the rest of the skin.
-i like the effect of having the video in the background while the video is in the small overlay... (how well does this work btw? i didnt think that was possible since i thought the xbox only had one overlary... )
-the osd has an interesting design and looks like it would be great to navigate (all buttons within two or so clicks looks like) but again lacks the elegance exuded by the rest of the skin. why is it green anyway?
-the icons look liked they were originally cheery and bright and bubbly but have been recolored to be dark and bubbly.
-i am not really a fan of the original pm3 logo or your refinement as neighther really fits that space well...
-the right-click menu confuses me... i think the icon on the left might be the chinese character for "write" or something but that doesnt tell me anything of its function... the 4 on the right look like bookmarks maybe? website? no clue on the rest... if you cant tell the function of an action from its icon then the icon isnt pulling its weight.

i encourage you to keep on experimenting as there are lots of good ideas you are developing even though the execution isnt top-notch yet.
