All my modifications are built upon WD ‘Mochi’ XML’s … (which differ to XBMC XML’s.)
I used GIMP to create from ‘scratch’ small file size graphics that looked similar to the original. (Original Aeon Xbmc Home bar is about 53k … mine is about 5k)
This Homescreen mod uses a different method to the renaming method in the inc_rv_home_menu_node.xml,
there is NO renaming (i just deleted text Labels)
Extensive testing with ‘my’ method has revealed … No “Random Reboots”.
Again, awesome work! Glad you finished your move and are “tinkering” again! Any idea when you will provide a beta of final release of a complete theme?
If your really wanting to work on an aeon theme. I’ve downloaded and unpacked the .xbt files from XBMC Aeon. I was going to work on a theme myself, but don’t find that I have much time these days.
My only (teeny tiny) criticism is that there’s no visual indicator of what you’re selecting on the home screen, other than the fact it’s centered. Could there be some subtle indicator, like a slight change of text color or something?
umm looks like it has LOTS HubCorn v.2.0 I would even say it’s copying me, I even had me BASED AEON theme.
You’re both creating an imitation of a pre-existing theme, so the copying accusation is nonsense unless he’s used your code (which he isn’t, since you’re not sharing it yet).
No complaints Helll3ond. I’m also working on a Aeon theme as well. I don’t think it matters who does what first, the whole community benefits from any and all creations that are shared. Good job Joey and Helll3ond.
I am just about to move next week myself…so i hope i get to play with this theme a little before my move if not when i come back online i certainly will.
Yes it does look like great mind think alike with all these Aeon themes, but it was bound to happen, at some point i can see us themers getting into groups to work on project togeather rather than apart as more heads are better than one.
In fact Hub themeing has moved on MASSIVELY in the last couple of months and most of us owe this to the original themers Mike (psychoTHC) and juliojs
Hell3ond everybody apreciates your efforts and everyone elses work, this is not a competition nor is it copyrighted work, blackbox removal was bound to be discovered released eventually , you wanted to keep it a surprise, somebody else did not, I dont think your work is being copied…as all work looks similar to some degree.
