About This File

 # WHAT IS IT ?
COLORFUL is a complete and coherent high quality graphic set, around a unique design. Made with love in France. I hope you like it !
Here are planned development axes:

# HERE IS COLORFUL PNG HARDWARE MEDIA SET:
On this page we are talking about COLORFUL PNG HARDWARE MEDIA Set:
Extract and aligned with the video set, here is the full PNG pack as a direct download.
You can find this same set directly in the Colorful theme. Post here for direct access and more regular updates.


# I NEED YOUR HELP : PATREON ?
I will make a first batch of 65 systems, according to my personal use.
But we are far from covering any game system!
If the community doesnt take over the creation, 2 choices:   the project stops  /or/  I finish it.
Problem, creating these videos takes a loooooot of time. And I have to deal with a full-time CGI artist job and 2 young kids.
So I opened a Patreon page that could allow me to dedicate days on my work time to continue creating video.
I'm not trying to get rich, but like everyone else, I cant spend 1 day/week working for free! I hope you understand.
If the project interests you: Here is my Patreon page.

# IN DETAIL ?
Obviously, updates here will be aligned with the video set updates. Whether they are made by me or the community:

  • Transparent PNG file.
  • 2160x2160 px

Yes, all sources are available on a dedicated page.  Everyone can create their own videos that will be included here, in this PNG set.

Nice! What is the purpose of this set - to display in Launchbox, or to use to make videos?

Not really.
This PNG set is already integrated in Colorful theme.  (wheel preview in all platform view)
And there are resources to create videos.

I posted this set to make it more visible.
Maybe it can help other theme developers (in LaunchBox or BigBox)? Or maybe unify the LaunchBox Games Database design?
In any case, for those in a hurry, it will allow to update this part of the theme more quickly.

Wow, this is simply amazing. 👍
Exactly what i needed.
I was never sure what Pictures i should use for the Systems. This is in the right direction.
Not only do you provide currently almost all systems available (even the Switch), but in addition also provide it in different variations sometimes, like the N64.
A few questions thou.
I want to try them in another project and really would need that all the Pictures would be the exact same resolution. Cause right now i´ve seen some that aren´t correctly like "Daphne", "Namco System ES3" and a few others. I hope you can fix that. :)
Also i would really like to see an alternate Picture for the "WiiWare", right now it uses the same as the "Wii".
Last but not least the Handheld Pictures look amazing in this resolution, but still a little "boring" when looking at the console Pictures. I know these Handhelds had no Controllers, but maybe instead you could put in some Games on the left and right side.
Sorry to have so much questions and requests right now, but i am too hyped right now. I have the feeling this was the Pack i was waiting the whole time. Thank you so much for creating it. 😀

Thx @Retrocop !

To answer you:

  • Size change:
    You're right! I had to crop too quickly. I'll go around and correct the set.
  • WiiWare version :
    Good idea! I'll see what I can do.
  • Handheld :
    Well, no. Basically, I created this set for a transition effect with the videos on all the PlatformViews of my theme. The images and videos should be perfectly aligned. In the videos, I added the handheld cartridges. But I removed them on the PNG's because it would limit the usage: No image elements should be cut because the usage would be limited in other theme/circumstance, due to the transparent background.

Thanks for these! Your theme and artwork is amazing. 

Quick request, can you please include the SNES USA model in these Hardware PNGs? I swapped out the video for your USA one but the PNG included here is the European version and it irks me every time I see it. 

Thanks again!

 

EDIT: Also missing Pokemon Mini!

Hi @viking !
These images are soooo good, and there's even quite a lot, even for some of the lesser known systems and arcade machines. Now, I don't know if this can already be found somewhere; what I'm looking for would be those of images, all with a game running on them and with the colorful backgrounds. Basically this, but with a screenshot of a typical game on the screen:

preview.jpg

Does something like that exist or is it planned? Because it would be perfect for all those frontends especially on handhelds/smartphones that only want an image, not a video. e.g. Daijisho even has a Colorful wallpaper pack, but it's missing a lot of platforms.

I found the "Collections" category video on the colorful videos thread, is there a "Category - Collections" png somewhere?
