[Feature] Clear Logos

[icpryde]

I was hoping we could find a way to add Clear Logos to the addon using things like Fanart TV as it adds some really cool looks to skins.

Heres an example when using this current skin without clear logos.

Heres an example if we use clear logos.

This works for most skins and for lanscape thumbnails and stuff like that too.

@Goldenfreddy0703 Hey 2 questions.....that is Auramod you are using? did you find most of the background images looked centred to you or is jutjitsu kaisen one that just looked the best?

Also you mentioned the skin itself can use clear logos and thats how its pulling it up? because im currently using this skin

https://github.com/nfm886/skin.arctic.zephyr.2.resurrection.mod

which I really like for that netflix style but as you can see here Kaito lacks the ability to grab clear logos from Fanart TV and it seems to be kinda wonky with how it grabs background images as well as you can see as well from my above post.

Is aura mod grabbing the images or is the add-ons you are using doing it like Kaito is my main question?

Heres an example of the image looking good minus not having a clear logo as well.

Oh hey, it's been a long time but I'm using Auramod and basically when using this skin. It finds the clear logos and art and images and stuff thanks to the api keys in the skin settings. It's sadly not an add-on but with the auramod skin, it finds the title and replaces it with fanart and stuff.

I'm applying the handling of metadata that nixgates uses in seren to kaito, so clear logos support should be in the next update.

Hey @icpryde , I love your the skin you are using and im testing with it, just one question tho. How did you get your movies and side panel together cause im looking in skin settings and its so hard to find?

[icpryde]

@Goldenfreddy0703 I'm not entirely sure what you mean? are you talking about showing multiple widgets ?

heres a few screens of my settings maybe this will help you.

Hey @icpryde sorry I've been busy but I'm talking about the icons and movies and stuff so on the home menu you can see your movies and you can see your categories like movies tv shows and amime. Like how did you get your side menu where it shoes movies, tv shows, and amime next to the posters full of tv shows and stuff.

@Goldenfreddy0703 you go into Settings > skin settings and make the tweaks there, you want to set Home Layout to Flix View and menu style to icons + text.

after that go into customize home menu and set all the widgets up the way you want.

if you have other questions, this video should help you.

Omg thank you so much, I've been wondering about this and I thought I just use icons. I didn't realize I had to change it to icons and text, again thank you so much and your the best.
