Hi, I'm Pablo33, and this is my first message.

I know that it is no much activity in freevo, but I prefer to write this
than shut up forever: I have started to create a new skin.

There are many questions rounding my head, it may be a bit late for
this. Well, I'll go on and if you think its a good skin you can include
it in later releases or may publish to other freevo 1.9 users.


I've read freevo wiki "http://www.freevo.org/wiki/1.x/Skins.html"; and
tried to understand the structure. Even I started learning a bit of
python a month ago, but for my surprise skins definitions are in an XML
file XDD .

I've uploaded the files into a compressed archive, so you can take a look.
link to the file <http://ubuntuone.com/4TodYdqBziwmum0o5UIodo>


Although base resolution for skins is 800x600, the skin is intended to
fit only into full HD resolution, so my base resolution is 1920x1080.
I started to draw a set of icons, in high resolution (maybe too high).
(they are mixed with a set of icons that already were there)

More or less everything it's working properly, the folder_game.png-icon
doesn't work (and I don't know why).

I don't know where to change other icons, such web_radio.  No idea for
now, i've seen an image-file in folder "/icons/themes/" but ... it shows
invisible in freevo menu.

Other issues are: I can't see other icons in action. For example: CD-DVD
player doesn't work for me, and I haven't TV card too. And I have no
idea of the "freevo-icon scope" ¿how many icons does freevo use? ¿which
ones? from now I've started from a theme set.

Well, can I wait for same light or help to test and develop more items?
do you think it worth for this or other releases (if they come)?  Does
freevo skin work for freevo 2?  Is this the right place to do this? Is
it too late? ....

I play freevo 1.9.2 in an Ubuntu 12.04 system. (installed from
repository, of course).


Regards. Pablo33
