@ rockNme2349 Thanks, great idea!
@ everybody else
So, I was thinking that this is basically an add-on so it might make sense if it were available via XBMC's new add-on browser, but there are a few question marks in my mind.
1. This is very large download, ~160 mb. This is possibly larger than what Team XBMC would like to host.
2. It is a bit different than other downloads available via the add-on browser, which I believe are exclusively skins, plugins and scripts right now. Perhaps Team XBMC has a slightly narrower definition of addon than I do...and wouldn't want to host it for that reason.
3. If this were to be made available via the add-on browser, it may need to be in the form of a small script...my thinking is that this script would install the pack after prompting you for a location and informing the user that weather fanart needs to be linked to/enabled in the skin settings, and maybe mention skins known to support weather fanart "out of the box" and warn that not all have built-in support, but mods are available in the forums? Something along those lines anyway....
Thoughts?
