This way, Arctic also uses clear art in the main sections ...I have updated the info screen for RCB on the latest git. Can you tell me if the video previews are working when the info screen opens? I've never used preview videos with RCB and I'm having a lot of trouble getting RCB to scrape my video files with my roms and so I can't tell if I've implemented it correctly or not.
Thanks for the positive feedback on RCB. I know it is a lot of work, I'm just happy it is considered for this great skin. I will gladly help with testing as I have a great collection set up in MQ4.
I also checked out the Picture section. Most skinners don't do anything special for this section, maybe one day Arctic can set an example, making this section less boring (not just file manager type of view). I have some suggestions here I would gladly share one day (although I understand this is far from priority). Edit: I know notice that in GIT version, the picture section has new additional views. Wasn't aware of this. Sorry, it looks already great! Maybe one day we can add a view that also supports text containing notes we like to add to the picture sections (if we create our own nfo files)
Pictures should have additional views in both repo and git version. They are only available when you are in a directory with picture content. There are currently three views - big list, a small list with a big preview thumb, and a thumbnail wall. I also have planned a view that is like the info wall (small thumbs with a large preview thumb).
I've thought about using clearart in the osd, but because they aren't consistent they can be a bit of a pain to get looking right.
