Xtreme
Xtreme is a Mediaportal skin based on the very popular old skin Xface (a special tribute goes to Harley, the author of original Xface). The skin is designed to be as much as possible graphically impressive and easy to use, proposing again, in a renewed way, the original Xface look and feel. BasicHome screen design basically origins from StreamedMP ones, while main home is very close to the original Xface ones. The skin is designed for widescreen 16:9 screens, and resolution is 1920x1080 but the skin looks great also on 1280x720 HD Ready screens (pay attention, Xtreme is not compatible with others screen size like 16:10 or 4:3).
Xtreme contains 3 different layouts (Standard, Fanart oriented and Simple&Clean), 4 different themes (Hero Day, Hero Night, Hero Racer and Horus) in addition to the default one and a lot of settings for customization.
Take a look at the new Xtreme eXtension Pack with additional themes, backgrounds, icons, analog clocks and other add-ons available here
If something doesn't works after the installation, prior to... damn the skin and his poor author, try a simple System restart ;-)
If for any reason skin fonts doesn't works after the installation, try to install them manually (you can find them in the zip stored in Archived File 1)
