This has been waaaay overdue, I don't even know how long its been since I've posted an update of my skin. I made some pretty big changes to it since the last version. There are too many to list, but the main idea was to make it more remote and touchscreen friendly at the same time. Remote users should notice how everything is left/right to go to the next column, and up/down to scroll through that current section. I haven't had a chance to go through the screens yet to check that the navigation works as it should, but for the most part should be ok.
So far I have mainly focused on the music screens. The main menu also is driven with a database now, so if you want to add/remove an option from it, it is very easy. Also one big change is, to jump say from the music section to the movies you need to click the green box in the upper left hand corner which will show a "jump to" menu.
Here's a quick rundown of new stuff:
Music:
Complete change, two main pages albums and playlist. Individual albums show on a new overlay.
The "now playing" screen is no longer accessed by clicking on the currently playing album, now just click on the "full screen" button in the lower left hand corner.
"Open" "Play" "Queue" are all now checkmarks instead of plain boxes (this just made more sense this way)
"Jump To" ... click the "A-Z" button and you will get a quick scrollable DB menu of letters to quickly jump to that letter for the first of that artists name.
Movies:
Now basically just one simple screen with an overlay for the specific movie. Pretty simple and easy
Pictures:
Not too much new here, just the new layout.
Weather:
New layout, and now uses the XoapWeather plugin
Games:
There is now a basic games screen for those who asked for it. It includes buttons and images for most common emulated systems.
PPC:
The ppc screens have been updated, but are somewhat in the middle of being revamped. That will have to wait till my next update. The music and movie pages are pretty much done, just need some good housecleaning.
Multizone:
Haven't tackled this yet, but definitley will soon, its at the top of my list.
I'm sure there are plenty of new things I forgot to mention, and
Let me know what you guys think and post any bugs/comments/requests..
