Lol, it's partly a learning process and partly perfectionism.
Initially I only has 3 sub sections to prove it could be done with a grouplist of groups and lots of animations. This code continually had re-writes to perfect until I came to add more sub sections where it became evident it would require way to many conditional includes and restrict what could go in them. Also the main list was re-written until I came up with a version I was happy with. In the end I've used normal lists for both because of the navigation problems caused when using grouplists.

you know that I was kidding, right? 
edit: by reading Valve and perfection in one context - where is Half Life EP3 *aaaargh*

Can you get the settings working & the Video addons section working along with that TVshow/Movie Description i seen on one of your early Fire tv videos & ofcourse the video player UI etc
Then just release that early build for me, and i will be happy since that is all i will use it for

Of course.
Anyway here's what all that hard work has achieved, and I'm almost happy with, for the final home screen re-write.

OK I don't give out ETA's as it's all done in my free time but I can definitely say it wont be out before Christmas.
Sorry to disappoint anyone but I don't want you getting your hopes up.

No apology or explanation necessary. 2015 was already going to be a banner year for me with the release of Avengers Age of Ultron, Star Wars and the Rugby World Cup. Now I have something else to add to that list with the release of FTV
. When I first saw the name of the skin I immediately thought of Fashion TV and after viewing the progress videos who's not to say that it isn't fashionable, stylish, elegant and every fanboys dream.Love your work Hitcher, many thanks for your selfless time and dedication, we are very lucky and privileged that yourself and other skinners dont charge for the use of your creativity.
