Im starting to think that you cant really put a background image to replace the black/white.....unless its gradients or something that is NOT an actual image. Because you cannot see a damn thing on the start screen since the tiles pretty much cover everything. If they work similar to how the photo hub deals with image backgrounds then we may have something.
In terms of the whole reskin tiles, it could look pretty cool, howeverI think only certain types of image styles works with it. It doesn't appear that full on pictures work well at all. The twitter pic looks not too bad but theres hardly anything there (since its a sky with a few clouds sprinkled around). The other leak or chop where it showed that default soccer pic looks absolutely terrible though.
MS better provide both because the skinnery style does not work well with certain types of pics.
