I created the repo for my friends and family to keep up with my mod. I posted it mainly to share/introduce stoli to some ideas I had come up with. Pushing so many patches can become difficult for the developer to review properly and make sure it is the best practice. and the way I have gone about certain things is totally different.
For example the way hidden views has been implemented. The fixedlist/panel/wraplist is hidden within the view in metropolis, I have disabled the whole view from the MyVideoNav.xml.

I understand now, but you're posting in a thread that is about Metropolis development, not Megalopolis development. If you want to fork the skin, you're free to do so, but by posting it here and offering it to users you're just bifurcating the userbase of Stoli's skin.

It wasn't clear at all from your original post that you weren't working off of Stoli's repo.

No disrespect intended but I think I'll just plod along with my own mod, My build is much older than you might think (its from when Amra first made his repo available) with some of stoli's patches added.
Like I said previous I was meaning to share some ideas, so feel free to use any you like.

Most or all of these ideas are already listed as Issues on his github repo and people like myself are working to correct/add them to Metropolis. By selecting the most-desired issues and forking the skin you're simply going to attract users to your fork which IMHO isn't fair to Stoli.

I was trying to help Metropolis development by sharing some of my mods and ideas, if you don't like that, that's fair enough, don't use them! As far as bifurcating the user-base, I've only mentioned my build Megalopolis once in all the time stoli has been developing the skin and that was because of the size of the mods in question. My build is not officially posted anywhere on this forum and If your worried about people using my mod, that's pretty petty and I'm sorry you feel that way.
