Microsoft Windows XP Automotive Edition Skin(Still in progress but letting you see)

Okay I have been on this project for the past 2 weeks and thought that it was coming along nicely. Originally I had planned to keep this on the low down untill it was ready for release but I have decided to let you guys/girls see what its like so far.

I have completed the Menu in photoshop and need to code a few things. the shut down thing i still have to change the color of the "Shutdown options" text.
heres the menu with the shut down.

Okay heres the player. im not completed with it yet. i would list them but there's just too many and its 12:33am and i have to get up at 5:00am so i have quit for tonight.
here's two different views of the player. one has the rollover of the buttons showing.

i do have two questions. The wmp10 visualization(i think its that version) when its in fullscreen view the bottom(equalizer) is cut off. i think because its in 16:9? is there a way i can make the whole thing fit the 16:9 res? i want to do this cause i thought that it would be a cool screen to look at when just riding and listening to music(for those that haven't seen it, it has the equalizer at the bottom, OPTIONAL:album cover/song info, and it has clouds up top that move) it looks like it could be stock

Can I can the format of the date from "6/20/2005" to "June 20, 2005"?

this is it for tonight

SLEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEP lol good night all

i had another question for this skin.

is it possible to have the visualization as the background and have buttons above it, in regular mode not full screen?

very cool, i use mce2k5 on my XPS2 laptop everyday. I was wondering what a mce based skin for frodo would look like.

You should use the home button to bring up the menu in frodo.
I also see you use objectdock, if you look on wincustimize.com they have high res logos of the big green button.

also, what do you plant to put in the are that has "WTF" written on it in post 3 ?
