You may want to increase the contrast on both the top text and the bottom buttons. They blend into the background a bit much. The top part of the top bar should also be a little darker silver to match the menu button better.

Good call on adding more rows to the queue area. I can't decide if it's better to have it like you do or white with black text. Both would work. Is it possible to do a quick mock up of that?

Overall the skin really looks great. And you're fast too!

EDIT: Oh, your original post has a white song list in it. I've got to say I like that look better, it goes much better with the skin since the black area would be so large.

Funny guys...this is exactly what we're doing for the day skin. So...you may want to wait a bit and get it from us. But, if you want to go ahead and do the work...I'm cool with that.

I like it! But I would let eBomb complete it instead. Much easier with the original PSDs.... good work though!

I've actually been debating the value of a "day" version for this skin. It seems like the real issue with visibility in harsh daytime driving scenarios is contrast, along with black being the most reflective color. Right?

Well in our skin, I made most of the buttons white-based with black text, so a white background behind them wouldn't actually help with visibility, it would only furthur blur the distinction between the button and the background. The only areas that would seem to benefit from the change would be the list views. If I gave you a home screen and a screen for the media manager and media player, could you test it for me and give me feedback?

Yeah sure, I can test it out and let you know what I think.
