Ok.. I didn't see this coming. But.. Very nice! The aeon name is muddied with history, so I'm sure this will cause some disputes. But this skin is clearly your own, and doesn't seem to be burdened (haven't looked too deeply yet) by the old aeon hacks. The licensing looks good, filesize is fine, and the xml _almost_ verifies. Kudos. So, a few things before we go any further: 1. A single xml validation error at 720p/script-RSS_Editor-setEditor.xml line 30. Fix the space. 2. Two invalid files. - media/flags/studios/Thumbs.db. Please remove. - The xbt will need to be extracted. See Alaska for an example. 3. 720p/Includes_Weather.xml. You can't use special://skin/media as this breaks down when xbt'd. 4. The following files have dimensions of 1x1 and will break when xbt'd: - Warning: ./media/common/darkgrey.png has dimensions of 1x1 - Warning: ./media/common/blank.png has dimensions of 1x1 Fix those up and we'll keep going, but I suspect there is not much else for me to complain about. I hope this doesn't start any feuds, but anyone with an equally unique (and compatible) take on Aeon is welcome.
