Hi Pablo,

Couple of years ago I wrote the new skin mimicking xbmc. It's a high resolut=
ion skin meant to work in 16:9 mode. You can find it on a branch of 1.9.2 in=
 GitHub. It's fully functional and mostly complete. I have extended the orig=
inal skin rendering code to cope wuth some new functionalities I have introd=
uced.

You can play with it to your heart's content :-)=20

There are most likely bugs and some additional work can be done.=20

It has never been merged into the main trunk of 1.9.2

Cheers,
Maciej

    Hi, I'm Pablo33, and this is my first message.<br>
    <br>
    I know that it is no much activity in freevo, but I prefer to write
    this than shut up forever: I have started to create a new skin.<br>
    <br>
    There are many questions rounding my head, it may be a bit late for
    this. Well, I'll go on and if you think its a good skin you can
    include it in later releases or may publish to other freevo 1.9
    users.<br>
    <br>
    <br>
    I've read freevo wiki "<a href=3D"http://www.freevo.org/wiki/1.x/Skins.h=
tml">http://www.freevo.org/wiki/1.x/Skins.html</a>"
    and tried to understand the structure. Even I started learning a bit
    of python a month ago, but for my surprise skins definitions are in
    an XML file XDD .<br>
    <br>
    I've uploaded the files into a compressed archive, so you can take a
    look.<br>
    <a href=3D"http://ubuntuone.com/4TodYdqBziwmum0o5UIodo">link to the
      file</a><br>
    <br>
    <br>
    Although base resolution for skins is 800x600, the skin is intended
    to fit only into full HD resolution, so my base resolution is
    1920x1080.<br>
    I started to draw a set of icons, in high resolution (maybe too
    high). (they are mixed with a set of icons that already were there)<br>
    <br>
    More or less everything it's working properly, the
    folder_game.png-icon doesn't work (and I don't know why).<br>
    <br>
    I don't know where to change other icons, such web_radio.&nbsp; No idea
    for now, i've seen an image-file in folder "/icons/themes/" but ...
    it shows invisible in freevo menu.<br>
    <br>
    Other issues are: I can't see other icons in action. For example:
    CD-DVD player doesn't work for me, and I haven't TV card too. And I
    have no idea of the "freevo-icon scope" =C2=BFhow many icons does freevo=

    use? =C2=BFwhich ones? from now I've started from a theme set.<br>

    items? do you think it worth for this or other releases (if they
    come)?&nbsp; Does freevo skin work for freevo 2?&nbsp; Is this the right=
 place
    to do this? Is it too late? ....<br>
    <br>
    I play freevo 1.9.2 in an Ubuntu 12.04 system. (installed from
    repository, of course).<br>
