    I'm sorry for the ridiculously vague and highly optimistic request for help - but I thought if anywhere will know, it's going to be here.

    Now that I've just recreated my xbox of old (an Executer x3 mod chip and front pannel with LCD). By sourcing a new and suitably equipped xbox to replace the one I sold a long time ago, I'd like to use what was my favourtie dashboard theme.

    The thing is - I can't remember the name of the theme and which specific dashboard it used. It was either EvoX or Avalaunch. It's most likely to be one of these dashes at least.

    The theme was a video background of a J-pop or K-pop girl dancing in a rainy alleyway or a warehouse. I remember that the theme used an RSS ticker and possibly weather widgets. Of all the themes, this was very nicely laid out and didn't look like someone's horrible MS Paint botch job of a scantily clad woman or some fantasy art with poorly sized boxes for stats to appear in.
    I wasn't XBMC.I didn't like XBMC.

    Is there ANY chance anyone can remember a theme for a specific dashboard that used this particular video background? I know, I know it's a long shot... I've looked through Eurasia and an iso site or two to try to find it, but to no avail...
    Thanks.

    I don't believe Evo-X has RSS, so that narrows it down at least a bit. Best of luck finding the skin, there was fucktons of them (and most links are probably down by now) :/

    Thanks for your reply - I know it's basically an impossible request! :)
    Looking again on Google, I see some quite slick UnleashX Skins that also have RSS tickers. It could have been that too.

    It could entirely be that I took a nice skin and added my own video (I was into J-pop back then) - if that's the case then there's no way in the world this hunt will end successfully... Still, there is a chance it may have been an existing theme.

    Likely unleashx was the most supported.

    There's some skin packs around, but majority of them are just nudes and weed related. Worth taking a sneaky beaky.

    Someone on here MIGHT have the theme though, I asked a while back for a Kasumi skin and someone had it.

    That's a original Xbox theme? Interesting.

    I've got a lot of unleashx themes, don't recall the one you're requesting but I will have a look for you. Hex I think that may have been me ;)

    Edit: Sadly I don't seem to have a theme by OP's description. Good luck in the search! I know the struggle, there are a few I've been hunting for for a while now with no luck.

    @Gangst3r - thanks for the offer, it does look nice, however I'm only interested in the specific theme. I invested a lot of time and effort in my Xbox at the time and I'm trying to get back to that exact very personal set-up that I had.

    @ToxicMedz, thanks for looking. I downloaded a pack of 115 UnleashX themes last night, but haven't had a chance to look through them yet. I don't hold out much hope as I think I'm now convinced that I took a theme that was nice but had a looping video I didn't care for and tweaked some of the settings in the ini file to get things working nicer and probably used a j-pop video I had knocking around. I may stumble on that j-pop archive on an old disk one day...
