Hey guys,
I was on a trip to Utah for a wedding (24 hour drive!) in which I made very liberal use of Google Earth (GooPs) and Centrafuse. (not embedded, I had to Alt-Tab back and forth between them) It was great! ...until the last day of the trip when my 1.5 license expired, and I had to resort to WMP.

...but enough with that sentimental stuff...

I want an always-up menu. David, clearly there is demand, please support it. The more ways we can customize the better. If you want skins that will make people happy, you have to allow them to be radically different from eachother.

All the other buttons have over images -- why shouldn't the selection highlight be an image. It would allow for much more creativity.

See http://csszengarden.com about why images are so important.

Yes, I push, but it's in a loving way.

@ RPM - PM sent.

@ all the rest - I'm working on it.

Where have you been Merc? Any progress on this awesomely different interface to CF? Send me some graphics and I will try to help with the XML.

Also, did you ever get free i-net on your A900 using the #777 method I PMed you about?

I don't think there will be a skin for it though, at least for a while. I'll finish the main skin, do all of the plugins, and then do popular embeds.

It would be totally awesome if more people started doing "popular embeds" using SKINbedder. BTW: There is a S+T SKINbedder skin (or a basic start to one anyway). The Google Earth SKINbedder skin we started is a perfect match to Polaris of course. I would love to see this CF skin come to life along with a suite of matching SKINbedder SKINs.

I can´t wait for this skin, please, please....

ok really random, but take one of the screens of this skin, put it in paint, click invert colors, and bam, that would be a sweet night/second version of the skin!
