Hi... some of the cool skins here seam to run slow on my xbox or take a lot of ram or somthing as they use really high rez bitmaps....
Are there any skins designed for xbox specs?

Vision 2 works great
Personally I use mediastream but with some issues, like I have to use info list view for movies (the other views use too much memory).
AEON/Horizonz is not recommended, most movies and tv-shows wont start if you try to play them, somtimes they start but one aren't able to fast forward, skip etc.
If you don't like any of them you can always use PMIII

PM3 was, is and always will be the best skin for Xbox.

Most if not all skins for XBMC runs fine on the Xbox when you do use use 1080i output (1080i uses a lot of memory which slows it down a lot) and as long as you do not use FanArt backdrops, (you can still use FanArt backdrops is you manually downscale them all to a much lower resolution on your computer).

I shift between xTV, Mediastream and PMIII and all work fine and look great in 720p...
PMIII-HD would be nice but the lack of a Programs button is a bit of a pain as I just copied all of my Xbox games and emulators to my xbox as part of a media clean-up...
Mediastream is probably my favorite but I'm still getting a bit confused with the libary mode... PMIII always works well!

Focus definitively has my vote for best Xbox skin. It's fast and reliable. MediaStream looks great, but all the eye candy slows it down and makes it function a lot less intuitively.

My vote is for xTV. It works great on the XBox.
