Now, I have to ask, what makes this skin actually touchscreen friendly? I am not trying to be sarcastic or anything, but won't just about any of the skins work on a touchscreen?

The list is pretty small, to make it touchscreen friendly, shouldn't the list text/font size be larger to make it easier to select things in the list?

The radio buttons seem a bit small and really close together to me as well.

As most touchscreens are going to mainly be 7" to around 14" in size (Not including the new HP's of course), I would think that making everything a bit larger would work better.

Hi JohnWPB, VH should answer this but will give you my opinions.

What makes it a touchscreen skin is that all the mouse move tricks are gone and the buttons are now on screen, the obvious ones being where you need to move the mouse (or use left/right on the kb) on the home screen and the different sections slide in to view. The menus on each screen that often slide in from the left when you move the mouse to the left of the screen are gone. Good example is cover flow where a transparent menu is still displayed. Also, on the home screen the usual rollovers, weather etc are permanently displayed.

Further, the use of right click is minimised, this is a bit of a pain on a touch screen, usually involving holding down your finger for 3 seconds. This is done with the use of new buttons (Back).

I am using a 17" touch screen and I am yet to click on the wrong thing, this skin can work for any size screen but obviously if it does get down to 7" then you may need a stylus instead! As to the radio buttons, you can just click on the text for that line and it will change the radio.

This skin is awesome, taking some great stuff from other skins, I have used it as a playground for learning skinning. I hope VH continues on it and adds some more features that are coming along.
