Here is a preview of the night screen - as above still some work to do and its based also on the attached OEM shot from my Car.

NB Its also designed to have the screen dimmed a bit.

Just to let you all know that I am now working on the night skin.... probably about %50 done now based on the attached image.

Once thats done I'll sort the Logodashboard skin to go with them ( this skin is designed to use it ) and then create an installer to make life easier.



Preview shots in the next couple of days although I am updating my own web site as well as day to day life so dont shoot me if they are not here then

Very beautifully. remain and please finish it!

...and I need Zorro to look at a couple of things on VD2...

Which problems are there with VD2?? I have unfortunately also some problems thereby with the export, perhaps give to ' s soon updates of VD2, which eliminates these problems. Zorro???

As example: I have here a Skin.xml the 400kB am large. If I these make am it manually clean only for 220kB large. There runs very much inclined with export! (More @ my german Forum!)

(Or we discuss times when Car-PC Meeting in Dresden. )

1 very minor thing is to make the buttons transparent but keep the image... although you can set this it forgets so Zorro was sussing this.

The reason for its use was so I can keep the use of the png images for each button and use my own background with out the black shadow. Another was that the clock kept loosing its custom postition which may not be fixed.... ( see my first screen shot ).

Right - I'm testing both skins now after completing Logodash..... just a few small things to change ( next week some time ) and then just wait for Zorro to fix VD2 and the transparent button prob.

Expect a beta if not actual by the end of next week..... through Zorros skin plugin mind you

Right.... some of you may have noticed the soft launch on Zorros skin plugin..... well I've been busy since that release.

I'm just checking the day screen now of the final version which pretty much covers all major plugins as well as CF2 and including the very latest release of POI Warner. Once thats checked it will be a simple case of updating those few extra icons for the night skin and I will zip and release as a final.

OK a NEW and UPDATED full CF2.0 compatible version of this skin is available from Zorros skinbrowser plugin exclusivly

Just click on the existing one and you will be able to access the new version as its the same source file how ever I'm not expecting Zorro to update the details until later.

I need feed back... what is wrong and where.... does any thing need changing both in the Day and Night skins ?

I intend to add some thing where the random button is on the top as its anoying and for some reason I could not get VD2 to export that shape Ggrrrr.

Any way - most of the major plugins are supported including this weeks release of POILogger.

The file has also shrunk by about a third and there is a simple installer to help you.

I'll post back here when I get round to updating the images on the first few screens.
