@cemfundog I really like your theme, great job all around! I had some down time this weekend and noticed there were only a few collection wheels in the theme, so I made a bunch (some I use, some I don't use) There are 190 in the zip file. I hope you don't mind me sharing these here. They are all in the format of "collection name\clear logo\image.png" so they are just drag and drop into your playlists folder.

Retro Console Playlist Clear logo.zip 98.9 MB · 13 downloads

These are great (after I figured out how to use them haha), can you tell me what font you are using for like the "Action" one? 

Are there Platform Logos for, Konami e-AMUSEMENT, Namco ES3, Raw Thrills, Europa-R, Lindbergh and Naomi 2? I cant find them in the downloads or @scooter1974 playlist pack.

If not I can put them together quick.

Hi @cemfundog, would it be too much to ask to add or change the view on the NDS and 3DS to a view similar to the Game Gear?  I like the dark wheel on the right with the game info box on the left.  Loving the theme!

I bet I will get many requests similar to this but unfortunately that is a bigger job than it seems. I may have to make a custom version for that. I don’t know when I can do it though as I am very busy for the next few months. I will look at though.

I am unsure about those logos. If you don’t see them then they must not be in there at all. Shouldn’t be too hard to make those and I will be glad to do so, the more the better right. Give me a day or 2 and I will upload a new pack including those logos.

I don't believe they are in there.

I'm not sure of the font unfortunately. It was just an image I had from another set of wheels.

No worries.  Whenever you get around to it since there are many views I can use.

Appreciate the reply. I found one that was pretty close.

@cemfundogI have noticed the when I get to the Categories section of a system, it is playing random videos from all over the place. For example, in my Arcade section, if I hightlight 1st person shooters, it may be playing a video about horseshoes or educational. Or if I go into PC games and hightlight Racing, the video will be dinosaurs or pinball.

Is it something that I need to fix or something that needs to be changed in the theme?

I am doing TONS of clear logos and that is what brought it to my attention

I can always help with any Photoshop stuff. Just holla.

Also which image folder displays the main board for Pinball FX platforms tables view? I have the Psudo-Scoreboard images in the 'game title' folder which is displaying on both the scoreboard and the main play board. 

TIA

This is not something I can control in the theme. It must be a LB setting. I am not noticing the same issue on mine so it must be correctable. but I am unsure of what to change.

Sorry, i would need a screenshot to understand this one. But if i am correct, then you will need to get the pinball video snaps because that view requires them. Launchbox will automatically put an image in its place if it does not find the video.

@cemfundog Sorry, I got a little impatient...lol...it is a big job.  I just took the GBA view and customized that for the NDS & 3DS views sifting through the code.  I think it looks pretty good.

Ah I see, didn't realize that there were top down videos of the table view. I have found the video snaps but unfortunately they are displaying horizontally. Is this an easy fix?

@cemfundog I sure hope you don't mind, but I love your theme so much that I started creating clear art for each genre/category in my large setup. I have been working on them for a few days with much more to do, but I would like to share them with anyone that is interested. Thanks to scooter for letting me use his stuff as well.

I added the systems to the ALL GAMES, and I am trying to add the actual system controllers to the # of players for a added touch.

Here is a couple screen shots of what they look like:

 

This is going to be a huge collection by the time I finish. Let me know if it is cool with you.

If anyone knows how to do the video snaps for these using the template That JPGIII shared and has some extra time, your help would be much appreciated...

I would like to start uploading them maybe tomorrow. Maybe go system by system.

Wow man, this is an amazing contribution to this theme. I think it would be cool to add this and all other theme contributions to the downloadables on this page. If you would like i can upload them here when you are done and credit them to you as well as anyone else involved. That would make them easier for everyone to benefit from your efforts. Let me know what you think. I will make sure there is plenty of credit so everyone knows who did what. I love that you and everyone else have decided to contribute to this so I will do what I can. In fact I will upload the psd templates to help out later this weekend.

That is so annoying. I have the video snaps and they are also horizontal so I flipped them in order to make them work in this theme. It is happening in the theme so it should be easy to offer an option. Give ma a day or two to figure out a solution. We must have different video snaps.

I have got clear logos done for 1700 of my playlists so far, only about 1/2 way though. I'll get them to you somehow so you can add them as downloadable.

Ok, I made each one of these for both the Platform Logos and Device logos. Enjoy! Just re-download both files from this page.

I tried messaging you a couple times yesterday. Not sure if I did it right, was just checking to see if they came through?

Yep, I got them and the download seems fine. Out with family for the week though. I will get back to you by weeks end.

What an amazing theme!! Any chance to add a progress bar to the startup theme?
