Wow, this is a really really slick looking skin, I'll have to try it out when I get home from my vacation.

I just checked out this skin. I must say you have a lot of work in it I can tell. A few things I might mention. The Splash screen is wonderful. I really like the look and design of that. The overall look is cohesive and polished. There are a few buttons that seem out of place or not in harmony, but mostly its good. The track titles for the albums are very hard to read. Maybe a drop shadow or outline to the white text would help. No biggy though. I must say I like having the vertical row of albums to choose from when in track view. I might steal something like that. I really liked the simplicity of your weather screen. It was one of my favorites. The round music player buttons are very nice, but seem to float there while everything else seems so tied together. All in all I like this skin. (not found of the dragon) but I like what you have done. Good job!

P.S. It would have been nice if I could read it. :wink:

Thanks.
I agree about the round buttons, those are more a fun to do thing in fireworks, than integrated in the skin. (I think thats why i started to hide them in the main menu screen.)
I´ll see what i can do about that.

There is a language file to download in first post :wink:

Fantastic skin Rika!! Thanks for all your hard work.

One thing, the text is shifted to the right of the grey shading when displaying movie details, and onto the white part of the background, making it very difficult to see the text.

Is there an easy way to change the text colour, or move it to the left so its directly above the grey area?

'm new to this, so be gentle!

Thanks mikeyboy911

You can move the text or change the colour by pressing the "pause/break"-key. click on the text that you want to move and use arowkey to move it. Or your can click on "display" in skin editor and change fonts and colour. When done close the skin editor.

Thanks Rika! All sorted out :D

By the way, when a movie is played, there is a text that says
" plugin>XMoveWindow>TMainForm "

Is this normal?

It´s where your movie should be shown. Read more about the xmovewindow plugin here:

Oops -

I now I said I'd stop bugging you , if this question is answered elsewhere then I apologise, couldn't find it.

I'm trying to use the Home video screen for camcorder/camera videos from my hard drive, but can't seem to find the database to download them to, I tried to create my own DB but don't know how to make TT play the vids, or get them to appear on the home video screen

I must be pretty thick- everyone else seems to be doing much better than me... :oops:

This forum is for questions :wink:
Is your vids played with TT if you start them direct from hard drive?
If not then press f2 from inside xlobby.
Press "File Types" and ad the extention (mpeg or what extention you like) to the program you like to start your vids.
Don´t forget to check the "enabled"-box
Close xlobby setup

Go to home video screen
Ok from home video screen you have to make a file browser.
Press "pause/break"key (opens skin editor)
Press "Screen"
In "Folder Browser" add your path to your vids (D:\Myvids or what ever)
Press add
Mark your new file browser and then scale and place it in right place on the screen.
Under "Item" - "Category" you can change columns,rows and so on, to your likeings.
Under "Items" - "Display" you can change the fonts to your likeings.
Close skin editor
Now when you press on a vid your favorite player should start...

If you like a example you could go to filebrowser in the skin. ( main menu - settings - help - files)

you could also make a new database and play them from movie screen but that is a different story...

I hope this helps
