@iAMl3dgend : I'm not sure why it isn't working for you, i'll download Gotham now and test it out.
@senna99 : Hello senna99, yeah i'm not too sure of what to put there on my skin either, at the moment i have just used local content. For example : $INFO[Window(Home).Property(RandomAlbum.2.Fanart)] will show random fanart stored from an album in your XBMC library, and
$INFO[Window(Home).Property(RandomAlbum.2.Play)] will start playing that album.
$INFO[Window(Home).Property(RandomAlbum.2.Title)] will display the title of the album.
and $INFO[Window(Home).Property(RandomAlbum.2.Artist)] will display the artist name.
This is about the best solution i've fount at the moment. I'll let you know if i find anything better.
@ADHDMedia : Yeah at the moment your avatar isn't displayed anywhere, the gamertag script is being used to get your gamerpic, recent games, gamerscore ect.
Sometimes the gamertag script will fail when it can't get certain content for one of your 5 most recently played games. Also if you continue to get problems with it then it can be disabled in the skin settings by toggling the "link gamertag" option.
@chisharpe : Yeah i was going to upload it to mediafire, but at the time i couldn't access the website. I will also be uploading it to Github soon.
@ADHDMedia : If you are experiencing dependency issues then try replacing the addon.xml with the one on the first page of this forum thread.
@ADHDMedia : I'm not sure why that is happening, are you sure that you have downloaded the most recent version ?

When you install the skin, make sure the setup is ran. if not then go into settings and untick the option that says "Uncheck to run setup on next boot" and this should enable some of the things that might be missing.
There is also a small few fixes that i have recently added in here : http://www.mediafire.com/view/57h7jjb1xo...s_home.xml
Just copy and paste into your skins 720p folder.
