-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Lonny, The only real criticism I have about the OSD is that the edges are a bit rough. The curves on the OSD Frame are a bit pixelated... just needs to be smoothed out :) Otherwise, I happen to love the theme! Thank you for it! - -John

Exactly the kind of critisism I was looking for ... constructive. I'll check samples on different screens and a couple of monitors. On my TV I don't really notice the pixelates curves but it's just an old 35 Sharp and there are way better displays out there. I'll poke around more with resolutions

Hrmmm ... do you mean while watching a recorded program, bring up the OSD and have this information shown while you view it? I know in the list of recorded programs, it lists the date it was recorded so that might be a little redundant unless of course someone asks you while you are watching it

If anyone has suggestions feel free to toss them out there. I'm going to start playing with fonts soon I think and maybe minor tweaking but I thought I'd check with others to see if there were things they just don't like. I'm guessing everyone has their personal favorites but I haven't seen many
