Very well themed, good use of color. Nice icons and "squishy" buttons.
What paint program do you use?

Very great skin!!!!

I would like to know what you can do with the light and the control fonction?

Light just sends ir from usbuirt to control my EIB electricsystem (European installation Bus) I also experimenting convert ir to rf like this:

You will need X-10's Powermids. Sends 418MHz in N. America & 433.92MHz in Europe. Could be used the other way as well, rf to ir, so for example by mounting a switch to your mailbox that sends a rf and convert it to ir will trigger a "mailman has delivered the morning paper"-overlay.

Controlmenue controls my soft and hardware. In my house i have built stuff like a food elevator and food fan that you can higher or lower. More about this when i release my skin.

Hmmm, I can't view the skin OR the web page with the sample shots. Do I need a special program to view this?

rika,
Very nice work... I like the simple/elegant design and the menuing system.
I'm tempted to use the skin myself.

If I can make some suggestions to make it more touchscreen and TV friendly:

1) If you can make the 'home' page buttons a bit larger. Thus moving the XLobby 'oval' more towad the center to allow for the larger buttons.

2) On the picture viewer... can you make the overlay larger to fill up "most" of the screen? This would make it nicer to view.

I see some things that look pretty familiar

"The sceenshots are up again... "
Well that's just freakin beautiful! Very elegant and creative.
Is there an EASY way for us in the masses to change the color or hue of your skin or would that require an entire overhall (I do a lot of skin tweaking but have never tried to change the colour...)?
BTW, I love your to do list... :lol:
