LOL! Thanks. Yeah, I've been running in my car and testing functionality for the past few months. Wanted to make sure all was neatly organized and easy to navigate.
Let's face it, everyone in here knows that you should not be using your carPC while driving, but I'm sure not everyone follows that rule.
So I kept re-working the skin til it was easy to navigate.
I must have re-coded the skin well over a dozen times, I think, just to get it to this point.

This is a great looking mmi skin! One request though. can you set it up so that you could choose your own logo for the background? Some skins have this option, and I must admit i dont know how to do it without that option.
