I understand, Litebox looks great as well so I'll check it out. While I was hoping the new version of Launchbox to be faster I don't think normal Bigbox will ever be as fast as Bigbox web so I'll be looking forward to it.

Wow Bigbox web is great! A bigbox option that just opens in seconds is what I always wanted. The only things I'm missing for it to replace base Launchbox is an "All" option on the platform list, sorting options and "play mode/max players" filters in the game list, maybe a random button/option but that's no deal breaker. Other than that it's perfect.

This is just like the custom theme "eclipse" which I like a lot and this definitely improves the game searching experience on Bigbox for me, the only thing missing from that is the "Like this" option in the game launching screen which showed all the playlist related to the game (platform, Genre, series, year of release, etc) which is a more direct searching method than the "related games" already on launchbox. Other than that (and a random button), this is perfect and I hope it keeps improving even more and can't wait to see what theme creators can do with it.

Performance is important to me so I probably won't use those options, I'll give my 2 cents regardless. How important is it to you for the startup screen to fade into the game? Is it worth the performance sacrifice to you while playing the game? Not at all, but I usually go for the less flashy/faster transitions just for performance. How important is it to you to use bezels? Are they worth the performance sacrifice to you? Most emulators that I use bezels with already have the option so I don't really care for external programs. What features are you most looking for with startup screens? Just a black screen or the game wallpaper/logo with a loading text in somewhere, the bare minimum so it doesn't feel like bigbox might activate randomly while I play. What features are you most looking for with pause screens? Not to big on external pause screens but if I had one... probably reading manuals and quitting the game.
