I kind of like this idea. We have a lot of third party plugins but only a handful of third party skins, has anyone wondered why ? If someone requests a new functionality in the forum it is often suggested that they should make a plugin for it, but when someone asks about something that is user interface related it is seldom suggested that they should make their own skin. I too would love to see the third party skin development increased. This way the Logitech crew could focus on the core and let the community provide all the extras. Maybe we need some kind of easy documentation how to create a third party skin ? Something that is easy for someone to follow if they just like to do a small adjustment and not make a completely new skin. Regarding the search box I really don't care that much since I've hardly used the search functionality in SlimServer yet. Would everyone be happy if there was a third party skin available that looked like the default skin but had a visible search box ? Or is it important that the search really is visible in the default skin delivered together with SqueezeCenter and not as a third party skin ? -- erland Erland Isaksson 'My homepage' (http://erland.homeip.net) 'My download page' (http://erland.homeip.net/download) (Developer of 'TrackStat, SQLPlayList, DynamicPlayList, Custom Browse, Custom Scan, Custom Skip, Multi Library and Database Query plugins' (http://wiki.erland.homeip.net/index.php/Category:SlimServer)) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ erland's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=3124 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=41417 _______________________________________________ beta mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/beta
