# 5.3. Modifying Screen Layout

One of the problems I had building my Freevo box was that the top of the screen spilled off of my TV screen. To fix this I first copied the default skin, skins/xml/type1/blue_round1.fxd, to my own fxd file (you can name it whatever you want).

          [user@host]$ cd ./skins/xml/type1
          [user@host]$ cp blue_round1.fxd myskin.fxd

Once you have a new skin file you need to change your default skin in freevo_config.py to your new skin file. After you have changed the default skin it's time to start editing the fxd file.
