ONYX skin

Really like how you have so many movies on one page. I use XL to control my Sony changer and this will make browsing very easy. Do you think this will be usable at 800x600 on a touchscreen?

Yes. I currently use on a 1024x768 touchscreen. Not much different

Any idea on a release date? Me has to have this skin

Still working on it. I am debating on porting this to the new Xlobby (with internal player). The real reason I never release skins quickly is because I dont have the time to fix bugs, troubleshoot. So instead of releasing a half done skin with a list of obvious fixes everyone will point out, I would rather just finish more things. I can release an "AS IS" and not do any bug fixes or finish screens and events. Of course it would be superseeded by subsequent releases.

This skin is currently on hold for 2 reasons: I am waiting on some features to be finished. I am making this skin for the new version of Xlobby. Secondly, I have been offered some money for this skin (I'm not selling it) so I need to hold off until the company develops their own.

Colby -- NICE JOB ON THE SKIN!! I can't wait until it is released.

One feature request.. anyway you can put a trailer button next to the "Play Movie" button at the bottom of the screen as well? Sometimes it is nice to see the trailer to help make the decision if you want to watch that movie. Assume the trailer is already ripped and lives on the hard drive.

Just noticed that your Xlobby BlueSkin images no longer show up on the skins page and the download links are dead. Any particular reason for this or just a web glitch?

His sites been down for about a 1.5 weeks now. Most likely more than a glitch. I would say an overhaul. Hope everything is okay.

I think Colby took his ball and went home...

by **Marbles_00** on Wed May 23, 2007 2:45 pm

Or maybe once he hit 1000 posts, he figured that's enough...time to go...move onto something more challenging :idea:

Or maybe its a new feature built into Xlobby, that when you reach a 1000 posts, you disappear, and all traces of your existance is deleted from the "master system" :shock:

.

My new conspiracy theory :wink:

....Steven, what are you really doing :?:

My personal quess is he was drafted for tour on Iraq. Its just how he appeared to me, very dutiful dogooder.

Well whatever happened lets hope he is ok and will be back soon.

by **Marbles_00** on Wed May 23, 2007 4:28 pm

he was drafted for tour on Iraq.

Oh man, all sillyness aside, that is a pretty terrifying thought indeed. More so now, it would be nice for him just to post to say he's okay.

The other thing is that his xlobby.incolby.com site is now stating that it is "Expired" and showing some start page to some general internet item searches.

If you click on the link "Why am I seeing this web site?", an email inquary opens, where in the subject it has

Inquiring about the domain incolby.com, with status: Expired
