    Custom Badge - Music View File A simple custom badge I made using LBCustomBadge. This one shows when a game has a music file attached to it. I also included my "Favorite Music" playlist with its platform icon, which is an ongoing list... Plugin .dll goes into Plugins folder. the playlist goes into Data\Playlists I put my custom badge image into Images\Media Packs\Overrides\Badges and the playlist icon into Images\Media Packs\Platform Icons\Legacy Conversion Icon Pack\Playlists (or whatever pack you're using from Tools > Manage > LB Themes & Media) this one is not so little ఠ_ఠ You can use whatever badge icon you like, though; just replace it in Overrides\Badges Submitter d66dle Submitted 06/20/2026 Category Custom Badges

    Custom Badge - LBDb ID Exists View File A simple custom badge I made using LBCustomBadge. Makes it easier to view at a glance which games are linked to the database without sorting by ID. I've included the badge plugin, badge image, automated playlists, and platform icons for playlist use. Plugin .dll goes into Plugins folder. the 2 playlists go into Data\Playlists I put my custom badge image into Images\Media Packs\Overrides\Badges and the playlist images in Images\Media Packs\Platform Icons\Legacy Conversion Icon Pack (or whatever pack you're using from Tools > Manage > LB Themes & Media) and that's all... ┏(◐‿◑)┛ Submitter d66dle Submitted 06/20/2026 Category Custom Badges

    Slightly Better Old Default Theme View File An Old-Default-ish Launchbox theme, because I'm stubborn, and sometimes simpler is better. Not very fast on my 2020 laptop though. Regardless, I've enjoyed tweaking it to my needs over time, so I will call this theme "done" until further notice--or if there is something catastrophically wrong with the current file. If you try it out, perhaps let me know if it's as sluggish as I think it is on other folks' systems... I am curious if it's an old-theme problem or a my-laptop-is-getting-old problem (it might also just be that I'm not versed enough in code to put together a theme that isn't riddled with errors resulting in slowdown). In the theme folder Better Old Default I have also included optional font files (one of which is a URL to its itch.io page), as well as some backgrounds I edited and then upscaled based on Mr.RetroLust's Neon Deluxe Arcade background. The fonts can be chosen in Launchbox options after installing the font files to your system. THEME INSTALLATION: Better Old Default folder goes into LBThemes folder. Choose in LB Options or Themes & Media page. If applicable, rename MainView_Condensed.xaml to MainView.xaml to use the condensed version that will fit the top menu in one half of the screen (badge menu and notification bell are missing in this version to make room). Optionally, install the included fonts. (Note: "Launchbox" logo on the top left may or may not look a bit off kilter with some custom fonts. Also optionally, use one of the included wallpapers as your default LB background. CREDITS: Since this is more of an amalgamation of a few different themes, credit is due to those creators, such as Retrofrogg, Mr.RetroLust, and faeran. ...I'm sure I've forgotten something (゜д゜??)

    Mo' Colors for your Game Boy Color - Lights Out! Retroarch Bezels View File I have edited some alternate colors to go along with Mr. RetroLust's platform bezels for Retroarch (specifically the GBC ones), which you can find here: I liked the idea of having different colored GBC bezels per game, so I added a bunch of basic colors not present in the original variants. This includes new flat and transparent colors, de-saturated versions, and a simple black one... totaling to 27 new overlays. Because why not. You can use the save game override option in Retroarch to save the bezel per game, and/or you can pick one to use by default for your GBC core, using the save core override option. The files are in the folder structure: overlays/_MR.RETROLUST, so you can simply drop overlays into your Retroarch directory. GIMP .xcf file is also included separately for convenience. ┏(＾0＾)┛ CREDITS: Mr. RetroLust for the original overlays! Submitter d66dle Submitted 01/08/2026 Category Platform Bezels/Overlays

    The folders would be named 'Default Box' for front and 'Default 3D Box' for the 3d box, and theoretically yes that's the folder would go. As far as I can tell the name of the image file doesn't matter as long as its in the correct folder. After this you can select one or a few of your games under Consoles and see if that does anything. Maybe restart LB for good measure... If not, I would try putting the 'Default Box' folders in the individual platform folders instead of the category, so Launchbox\Images\Platforms\PlatformName You can also add the default images through the UI by selecting the desired platform/category in the sidebar. It'll create the Default folder automatically. I thought it would work with categories, because there's Default image types in the editing dropdown...but maybe they don't work as I thought! I'll just strike out the category path in my description if that's the case, to avoid confusion 😅

    Simple Default Boxes for MAME/Retroarch + XCF Files (Updated) View File Very simple default boxes with MAME/Retroarch logos, similar to the Launchbox ones I posted earlier. I didn't make so many variants this time, but the included GIMP files now have some more stuff in there to work with, if anyone wants to make their own boxes with them (ex. use the plastic wrap layer, recoloring). It's not the cleanest 'template' in the world... but one can play around with it if they wish ^^; You can see a preview of what those look like in the screenshots. So far I'm content using the 'Default Boxes - [Name]' version of the files rather than the alternates just for my own use, but if get bored with them I may add more alt variants, more platforms, cart images, etc... For now, I'll just leave this here as is. Default 3D Box and Default Box folders go into Launchbox\Images\Platforms\PlatformName\ AND/OR Platform Categories\CategoryName\ Credits: MrRetrolust for the base box images, and to the creators of the MAME/Retroarch logos 👾└(^o^)┐ Submitter d66dle Submitted 08/21/2025 Category Platform Default Image Packs

    An extension of my initial default 'box' thingy--now in actual boxy form! It looks a little better than the flat logo on 3d models... Default 3D Box and Default Box folders go into Launchbox\Images\Platforms\PlatformName\ Alternatively, you can add the default image by selecting the desired platform in the left sidebar, and clicking Edit. This will create the folder automatically and copy the selected image into it. For an explanation of how I use symbolic links to disperse the default image across multiple platforms to avoid tedious copy/pasting, see my initial post below: I also experimented with different looks for funzies, so I'm sharing those too, in case anyone wants them. GIMP .xcf files are included as well. Credits: Mr.RetroLust for the base box images, niglurion and DerSchlachter for the backgrounds I used as overlays in some of the alternate boxes. ( ´◔ ש◔`) ノシ 👾
