Cool, I'm always interested in this kind of suggestions.

Making suitable graphics could be a little challenging for me, though :-)

You and me both.

Quartz offers a combination of two things that no other skin seems to: simplicity and useful customization. Not only can I add a "children's" section to tv and film, but my gf can see it, and navigate to it without help. Now he's had a bit of practice, my 3yo son can now get from the home screen to peppa pig, and without having to scroll past reams of unsuitable content.

Personally I think it deserves a wider audience, and some input from a decent artist

Once you're finished with the current update, I think it would be worthwhile getting it in the skins section of the forum, and maybe some other people would be interested in doing some work on it. Perhaps you could release it on a "bug fixes but no feature requests, unless you can implement them yourself" basis (given a stable code base, I'd be happy to learn how skinning xbmc works and add the per menu custom graphics option).
