Yeah i'v tried doing research before (and my own firmware editing and testing with DevHook actually) to try and change the icon graphics in the XMB, but never got anywhere... i think this kind of stuff is really in-depth firmware modding, and is probably too complicated or too in-depth for one person to try (even Dark_Alex)... but who knows? He might be working on it for all we know...
Obviously the BEST option would be to modify the actual firmwares' XMB... but i think the best feature of this idea is the ability to add custom menus or edit existing ones... that would probably be very tricky to do but it'd kick a$$
I don't know of anyone who would be interested in giving this a go, but i am happy to help anyone who wants to try. Maybe i'll contact the creator of iRShell, and a few other people to see if they like the idea.... try and get the word out and stuff.
I have plenty of web space and have ben doing web, graphic and audio production for many years... but I am not willing to start coding for this idea, even though its the biggest thing that has wanted me to so far (dont have the time or the brain capacity to start C/C++ design lol).
It'd be good...
