You can do that yourself in case pecinko prefers to keep it as is:
1) create a plain black background png to the transparency of your choice
2) edit the view_videos.xml file, and search for the word "Vignette" ....there are several entries so experiment until you find the one you want (I don't know the one for fanart 2 at the top of my head). You will see something like <texture>img/Vignette_somenumber.png</texture> ...change this to the image you created...eg <texture>c:\myimages\vignette.png</texture>
Edit: oops too late...just saw pecinko's reply

Cool reply!
I'll make it easier. Look for
<control type="image">
<include>Dimensions_Fullscreen</include>
<texture>img/Vignette_58.png</texture>
<aspectratio>stretch</aspectratio>
</control>
in View_Videos.xml and make it
<control type="image">
<include>Dimensions_Fullscreen</include>
<texture>img/Vignette_58.png</texture>
<animation effect="fade" end="85" time="0" condition="true">conditional</animation>
<aspectratio>stretch</aspectratio>
</control>
Added line will lower transparency to 85% on an existing image. You will see at ones why I said it's not that easy. I have to remake Vignette_58.png to make it look proper.
Thanks for the replies
worked perfectly!! Allows the fanart to breath a little more. Thanks again. By far my favorite skin!!
Actually changed end="85" to end="60". Just my preference.
