Do you think I could ask you to add this button, or provide the PSD so I can add it?

Thanks a bunch.

Buttons are text entries, not physically done on the jpg's, so just add a L - label and a B- Button.

Awesome, didn't realize that! I'll let you know how I make out.

SUCCESS!

**Enforcer** · 02-05-2006, 11:26 AM

nice!

pop the skin file up, and I'll incorporate it into the next release. (it should also allow me to do the XM one as XM and SIRIUS are basically the same).

Oh wow... that beautifully seamless integration of XM makes me want to get it now! I gotta say, this skin gets better and better. Thanks Enforcer for keeping it alive!

OK, two more concerns....

1) Any chance we can get iGuidance intergrated? Seems to be the better choice - I HATE MapMonkey's tendency to route you all over the place...iGuidance routes much better.

2) No slider on video - so you can't move to anywhere else in the video, have to watch beginning to end. Should be relatively easy, no? I may try and tackle this if no one else does...

Great looking skin. Looks like a TON of work went into this one. Unforunately the audio buttons on each screen are just too small for my 7" touchscreen. Nice work though, I know you've got that nice big screen.

Huh? How are they too small? I find them to be perfect, and I have a 7" screen as well...

Also - Enforcer- do you have the original background file for the audio player? It's what I'm using for the sirius skin but it has the 1234 and repeat buttons in it, which of course I'd like to take out for Sirius.

Just want to get it cleaned up before I put the Sirius files up!

iGuidance I am looking into, but It seems there are a few ways of incorporating it.

1. using skinbedder
2. using igkeys.

plus a few others, unless I read it wrong. Unfortunately not having a copy I can't play with it. But I am definitely looking into it.

Not sure where a slider would fit into this style of skin. Maybe reduce the length of the video window and stick it under there?

Maybe for a future version. By all means have a go and post your results.
