    It should look something like this, (in the appropriate folder for each system) as shown below. But you'll have to put your own image there, as I did with "nes.png" in this folder

    I did it, with the fanart option checked, but nothing apperas

    You shouldn't need to do a re-install, as I don't think that would solve the problem. I think there's a step missing somewhere. Also, I am pretty certain that with RetroFresh, it uses videos not images for that particular view (wheels). Although you should see images (platform artwork) with the text-list view. By any chance, did you set this in BigBox options? (see below)

    If that still doesn't work, let me know.

    Yes I did it in every step that I described before.

    I can't find anywhere (directories) the platform background images, it seems like they are not downloaded. But it's only my opinion, maybe wrong.

    You'll need to use a BigBox theme that allows you to use a platform image in the background. There are a lot out there to choose from, but I'd try using the "Retrofresh" theme and see how well that one suits you. Here you go

    RetroFresh - Big Box Custom Themes - LaunchBox Community Forums (launchbox-app.com)

    I installed retrofresh, followed all the instructions, but the result is the same.. no background, as you can see in the pictures attached.

    My directories LaunchBox/Images/Platforms/... are empty inside Fanart, the same in the themes folders.

    I tried to put inside Fanart the background images downloaded and allowed them in the big box options, but nothing happened.

    I don't want to do a new installation, but it seems to be the last option.

    Any new ideas?

    Thanks for your help.

    There is a Big Box option that controls the visibility of those as well (though what Neil said is usually the cause). In Big Box Options in the Images section there should be a line item called "Show Platform Fanart Images" (or something similar) make sure that box is checked.

    The option is checked
