Coming Soon for XBMC – Aeon Stark Skin

XBMC fans are very familiar with the Aeon skin for XBMC.  It is one of the most striking HTPC “skins” available.  I’ve been following the XBMC forums about a new skin being developed by the creator of the original Aeon skin – an even more amazing-looking theme/UI called “Aeon Stark”

XBMC is a popular open-source media center application for Linux, Mac OS X, Windows and XBox.

Dunkan Harris (known as djh on the XBMC forums) has been hard at work on Aeon Stark and posted his projected release date for Aeon Stark as March 30, 2009.  The XBMC forums are in a frenzy to learn more about this new skin so I thought I’d share with GeekTonic readers what all the fuss is all about.  Here are a few of the screenshots from the new theme posted by its creator:

These screenshots show the amazing work being done for XBMC.  If you’re looking for beauty in a user interface, this should be one of your first stops.
