Are you aware jurialmunkey has already stated he will not be adding this feature. He wants to keep it simple but informative. 

Definitely with you here. Keep it simple. If people want 60+ widgets on their homescreen this is probably not the skin for them. I suggest they check out Titan instead.

 60 plus widgets? Nothing like exaggerating to make your point. Arctic Zephyr has the feature and still manages to stay clean. What so many seem to overlook is that if you don't add the art it doesn't display, so what's the impact? I swear some of you just like to whinge for no reason. Anyhow I'll most likely mod the skin myself. No interest in Titan but thanks for your patronising suggestion!

The thing to keep in mind with AZ1 is that there were many things I added that I ultimately wished I didn't add. If I was happy with the old version I would just update it to Leia and there wouldn't be any need for v2.

I'm against skeuomorphic designs and that's why I don't include things like DVD case textures in my skins. In AZ2 I'm trying to work towards even more minimalism - that's why I've removed things like reflections.

Considering that with streaming and downloads, media sources are no longer always from physical media, it feels like discart is a bit redundant. I get it from a collector perspective though, and that's why it's included in the artwork gallery section.

Also keep in mind that I'm trying to integrate info with extended info as much as possible and it doesn't provide discart

@Crustybeaver my comment wasn't intended to be patronising and I apologise if that is how it was received.

I like to add my own wallpapers and icons so Ihave folders for such artwork. Add them via file manager, then when setting menus up I can navigate to them easierly. But I noticed in previous AZ skins that when say I want to change an icon on the menu, I navigate to the folder then its a choice of up or down to find the icon. It only moves one space at a time. In other skins If I press right I can then jump page per page instead of item after item in the menu. Can be time consuming when I'm searching for an icon from a folder that contains over 180 custom icons I created.

I like the guide view and the minimalism there. I also think I don't need the name there, not sure on the number tho

But for the channel view I would prefere are more vertical list style with the channel number, icon and name on the left side. On the right top quarter the information of what's currently running on that channel. On the right bottom quarter an overview of what's running after.
