This looks amazing - Star Trek LCARS inspired home automation panel. He used EIB/KNX (http://wiki.linuxmce.org/index.php/EIB) for his home automation.

This guy earned lots of geek points in my book

Hey,
Thanks for the complement.
I have been working on an off on the skin for about a year and a half now. The UI 1 is actually a little cooler. I have some screen shots of it on the developers forum.

I am actually still working on perfecting it as over time I keep seeing places that it could improve. Unfortunately I work very slowly due to time constraints.

Here is a demo of the UI1. I am getting very close to finishing it.

Looking good, Dude, but the sound doesn't seem to match up. Your lips are moving, but no commentry! Just the Star Wars theme I take it that is not deliberate?

[fearingsept]

Actually yes it was deliberate.. I felt it best if I just didn't speak.

And that's the Star Trek TNG theme there.

[wierdbeard65]

Oh!

Yes, sorry, wrong theme!

It was just that your lips were moving so it looks like your are explaining it....

Looks cool though! Nice house too
