hi,
just getting some ideas from the community of what are their favorite view style or skin when using banners view using KODI for the purpose of viewing gaming systems and rom. banner view would enlightening the wheel artwork that have been utilized in hyperspin; imo looking at artwork triggers flashback memories better than the text displayed.

Banner View are mostly seen for TV library
tvdb.com scrapper
tvdb_chuck-300x197.jpg
or Anime Library
anidb.net scraper
screenshot002.jpg
if you have seen them in KODi.

the goal is to pick 1 or 2 centre skin then integrate a banner view mode for RCB OR AVD. launcher.

so please share your opinions and ideas of style?

Sexy Cirrus Expanded is an awesome looking mod. Not sure of its functionality yet, but it looks great. Its the first skin I saw when I decided to move my collection over to XBMC.
