The logo you are seeing is not kodi's startup image. The skin cannot do anything about that one. You see the skin startup image. This image you can change yourself or disable it if you do not want a startup image. To do so, just choose 'no background' for the startup image in 'background artwork':
Thanks.

Hi, thanks. Just found out that this works this way.
In regards to the focus item on home screen, I have to select "settings" home screen item in the skin settings to get focus on "movies" home screen item. I need to select "exit" in the skin settings to get the focus to "settings". And so on..
