Wow that would be great! I just called the playlist 'Favorites' and it contains about 125 MAME classics. The static image I have and want to use is a CGI generated picture of an 80s arcade that I have always liked. Thanks!
Hi @jdsabin1
Here you are. Copy the uncompressed xaml file into the Views\WheelGamesView folder of the theme.
For the cover image, rename the one that you want to "_favorites.png" and put it inside the Media\GameCovers folder.
Let me know if you have any issue.
Enjoy!

I love this theme on my cab using my LCD game monitor at 1024 x 768. I would like to have a static background image appear for all my MAME games that I created a simple favorites playlist for. I am using the view of the arcade cabinet with clear logos on a vertical wheel. I am unsure how to do this. Can anyone help steer me in the right direction?
Many thanks.
You would need a specific view for this. If you give me the exact name of that playlist I can build it and send it to you.

Changed a little bit the composition, size and perspective of some elements. I think the shadows are also a little bit more realistic.

Hi @viking!
I have been working lately on a Sinclair ZX Spectrum video, following (or trying to follow, to be more precise :)) your instructions.
Can I get your expert opinion on the progress? I'm not too happy with the composition, particularly with the perspective of some of the elements.
I'm trying different background colors. I'd rather go red, or blue.
Thanks a lot for sharing all these resources.

CoinOps Redux [4x3]
View File
What is it?
4x3 optimised version of the CoinOps Redux theme (port of CoinOps Next to BigBox), co-created with @Klopjero.
The theme has been developed using the Community Theme Creator (all the credit to @y2guru).
As in the case of CoinOps, it relies on 1120x1080 fanart images for game wheel views.
Big thanks to BritneysPAIRS and the CoinOps team for their work in CoinOps and for their amazing theme design.
Views
It includes the following BigBox views:
- 4 platform views.
- 2 game wheels for arcade based systems.
- 2 horizontal game wheels.
- Systems view.
For platform views, we suggest to use @viking colorful videos (4x3 version).
Files available
[CoinOps Redux (4x3) - 1.0.zip] The BigBox theme files. Just uncompress and copy / paste to Launchbox\Themes folder.

Sorry for the delayed response. The game fan art is what I was talking about. Game box art is displaying in the background instead.
Check your background image priorities in the options window. Fanart background should be the first option. If the game does not have any background image, then it will default to the second option and so on. In my case, I have only marked the fanart background. If not found, then no image will be displayed (and the theme will use a default one).

Love the theme, but it doesn't want to display the provided fan art backgrounds and is displaying box art in the background. Is there a setting within the the theme I can adjust to allow the fan art to display?
Are you referring to the platform or to the game fan art?

One thing I noticed when playing around with the theme is when you pull up the search by letter bar, it is partially cutoff. I thought it was because I am using a 1440P monitor but it happens on my 1080P as well.
Fixed this in the latest release.

Another thing I just realized is none of the themes I place in the themes folder show up. If I download any theme from BigBox theme settings then I can apply and use those. I'm stumped..
You could try to map a key to change the theme. Press that key in any view and a window will popup with the different themes. You should be able to choose also the ones that you copied over.

I really want to try this theme but I can't get it to show up in BB as a theme to select. I made sure I pasted the COINOPS REDUX folder to LaunchBox/Themes folder. What could I be missing? I'm running 11.7
I don't have a clue what the problem might be. Everything seems to be ok. I've just downloaded it from the forum and tried it on my Launchbox (11.7) and it works fine.
Maybe try unblocking the .zip file before unzipping?

Do you know that you can use views from different themes in BigBox?

Hola, gracias por contestar. Intento explicarme mejor. Quiero tener una vista, que es una mezcla entre sus dos vistas de arcade o consola. Me gustaría poder tener las arcadas tipo mame, naomi, atomiswave, Neo-Geo en tu gabinete y con tu carpa. A continuación, las consolas con su vista de plataforma, consideraremos la consola en cuestión si es una computadora portátil o la consola de mesa con su televisor. Lo que vendría a ser, una mezcla de tus dos puntos de vista
Con respecto al tema de los diferentes gabinetes es una buena idea, como te comentó @Klopjero. Lo vamos a mirar
En relación a la vista de consola, sigo sin tener claro exactamente lo que pides. ¿Me puedes dar más detalles?

I love this theme. And the illustration packs are great. Thanks for sharing

How would I explain it if I messaged him? Or does tagging him allow him to see it?
Tagging should be enough. He is checking regularly this thread

Thanks for noticing! We have just fixed the issue. We will release an updated version of the theme later on, including some additional minor tweaks.

@CMOSS I am deleting one of your threads as you have two upload threads showing. Theme looks great by the way!
Perfect. Thanks!
Do you know how to mark it with the theme tag as other themes? I have not been able to find how to do it.

And here it is! Co-created with @Klopjero, a port of CoinOps Next to BigBox.

The theme has been developed using the Community Theme Creator (all the credit to @y2guru) and should display correctly in both 16:9 and 4:3 ratios.

Big thanks to BritneysPAIRS and the CoinOps team for their work in CoinOps and for their amazing theme design.

It includes the following BigBox views:
- 4 platform views.
- 2 game wheels for arcade based systems.
- 2 game wheels for non-arcade based systems.
- 2 horizontal game wheels.
- Systems view.
Supporting more than 130 systems.
For platform views, we suggest to use @viking colorful videos.
