I can see the day when other RPi screen resolutions are just as popular
as the current official 800x600. This will result in someone taking
piGridSkin and modifying it to suit. Then another....

I added support for three more popular resolutions (1024x600, 1280x800, 1366x768). "Text only" Now Playing screen sucks on these displays, but who cares :-). I tried to get the standard and large artwork fit nicely.

It's 800x480px first, with the others trying to fit in. The biggest changes were to get rid of the many hard-coded measures/coordinates, and use some logic based on the screen size instead. This seems to be working quite nicely with the aforementioned resolutions, as they share similar ratios.

What other screen resolutions would you have considered? One big difference between the PiGrid based skins and Triode's HDGrid is that PiGrid is supposed to be used on a touch screen, whereas HDGrid is rather for the 10ft UI without direct interaction.
