There isn't a best. They are all good.Try them and settle for the one you like most.

As Abu says , no one can determine the best skin for you but you. Personally I always gravitate back to the default ViX Night HD skin but there are a lot now to choose from on the feeds so try a few and see which one fits your needs best.

i preferred the green version, but now using the bello. It's a pity some of the plugins such as TS media are affected by the HD skins, but you do get used to it

The authors need to adapt their plugins to work with the 1080 frame buffer as it's not some thing we can do for them, especially in the case of closed source plugins.

Ts media now uses the full screen on YouVix blue rather than just a quarter :)

Where can i find the "vixbmc 1080 confluence" skin? I can only see the "vixbmc 1080 metropolis" skin in the plugins.

I'm not entirely sure, I reflashed about 3 weeks ago so it will be one of the very latest vix images. I will have a look later when home and post back. Thanks!

looks like you need to updated to the latest build 007 or 008 and you'll find it there. MK's picons are in the vix image tab at the top in picon folder

Thanks for pointing me in the right direction. I was still on Apollo but updated to the latest Hades. It's a cracking skin, just need to sort the picons out now.

I created a picon folder on my HDD and transfered the picons, all done by ftp programme on my mobile phone, no need to boot up computer. Some say its not advisable to put on HDD but I've never had any issues.

It will spin your HDD every time you change channel best on a usb, iv started using flash memory for picons

Only problem with installing picons to the flash is they take up so much room and leave barely any room for other plugins. I use the HDD now also.

I've always used a 4gb Sandisk usb stick in the back for picons & epg. Works a treat.

Tried the vixbmc 1080 confluence skin as recommended earlier in thread & it looks really good so can also recommend that :)

MKs picons are approaching 200MB! in size if not already bigger, so ye some boxes with lower flash may run into issues.
