Just wanted to say thanks for this skin, i stumbled upon xbmc (plex actually) when I was trying to find something to play 1080p stuff on my hackintosh HTPC. I had played around with other media center apps before but basically gave up, they were either too flaky or too complicated or too ugly, but this is great!
I have a couple noob type questions, apologies if these have been covered before, I did read the entire thread before I posted this and didn't see anything.
Is there a version of xTV with hi res icons being worked on? I saw mentions of a new version but wasn't sure if updated HD icons were part of that. I did manage to figure out how to replace the generic drive icon with a 512 x512 pixel version (took me awhile to figure out that I had to compile the build on a windows machine, but I got that sorted and it looks pretty good) the thing is I don't want to spend a bunch of time replacing graphics if a new super great version is right around the corner - any hints? weeks? months?
Oh and in the main page there is kid of a "glow" or light coming from the top right corner - is this part of a png image or can one turn this off in a menu somewhere? I prefer an all black background.
Anyhow it works great so far and looks fantastic. You guys have all done an amazing job.
