  1. This is exactly how I got started like 5 years ago! I actually use GIMP most of the time as well...2.10.0 to be exact...but I keep older versions as well,to use for different features that they cut out.In 2.10 I just use the default drop shadow settings,also,using the Cartoon and Median Blur filters (In low amounts) can really make a picture look clearer than it originally was. In the color menu,play around with the Brightness-Contrast and Saturation settings as well..they can make the artwork pop when used in moderation.
  2. Thanks!...It is working on my end..but,until he does an official release with the fix,and not just a beta release,I will not update the files in the download section. The reason being,that the current Big Box,for those that don't use beta releases,would break the theme with the changes implemented already. He should be updating the Official really soon though.
  3. Done 16 systems so far today..sleep time now...but,here is a sample of a few I got done...
  4. Next logical step right?....might take a while for every system though...
  5. I am glad to see someone working on additions to the theme...every bit counts towards covering every system and the help is much appreciated. With that said,I would love to add these to the official list,and I would credit you in the description of course,but,there are a few things that I would change before then... Nintendo Game Boy Player *The Wario picture is the same one I used for Nintendo Game Boy...and each system needs a unique picture...even if it's wario but in a different stance. *The "_Default - No Art" border needs to have the logo for the system as well,as that is the border that is used when box/cart art is displayed. *Delete the Alts folder,or match the alts to the system *A system picture with the actual Game Boy Player is preferred,but,not necessary *All character art in the theme uses a drop shadow to give it more depth Nintendo iQue *Same as above with the drop shadow,the "_Default - No Art",as well as the Alts folder *there are a couple loose pixel fragments in the video window where the preview displays Super Nintendo Entertainment System (PAL) *Same as above with the drop shadow,the "_Default - No Art",as well as the Alts folder Nintendo GBA Video *Same as above with the drop shadow as well as the Alts folder *I do try to not have the character art run into the logo art,as well as not run off screen...for the themes anyways...so I would shrink the dog slightly (cool picture though) Overall *Each theme would need a Default border to go with the Unified Refried default theme as well..it has the border,with the logo on the top,and the system in the bottom left corner *I would need any Logo and character art assets to make matching Platform videos,because people WILL ask for them...unless you wanted to do that yourself as well..either way is fine. Please take this all as constructive criticism, and by all means none of these changes need to be made. If you choose to just go with them in the present state,and upload them separately,I can still link to your downloads through the theme comments section if you wanted me to. Thanks for the work you have done!
  6. Updating the theme now so this will be sorted out Not sure why you had this issue,as mine doesn't display any problem like this...but,glad you got it sorted So you mean,if you have a playlist called "Sucky Games"...the border is the default border?..That is because I have not created a border called "Sucky Games"...any custom playlists will have to have artwork made for them as well,and it's impossible to cover every playlist,or possible playlist,so I just covered what is on my machine. I am not sure if there is a way to change the border by game,and I highly doubt there is,but,it is also not something I plan on implementing. **btw..I am back online..and I have reuploaded the Hacks platform category video,I have uploaded like 65+ more Refried platform videos,and I am currently working on an update for the main theme,as well as all addon themes to incorporate the new playlist functions in some way**
  7. Gonna have to address all issues in a week or two...we were not able to keep up with the internet bill this month,so its off until we do...sorry if there is any inconvenience,but,Once I am back online I will take care of anything still needing attention.
  8. Videos go in "Launchbox/Videos/Platforms/" and "Launchbox/Videos/Playlists"...they should be named the exact same name that your platform/playlist is named. Logos go in "Launchbox/Images/Platforms/(System Name)/Clear Logo/" or "Launchbox/Images/Playlists/(Playlist Name)/Clear Logo/" ...and follows the same naming rule.
  9. For those that are interested...I added a Hacks video to the Platform Category set in the downloads section. It was a patreon request,but,I decided to make it public.
  10. Oh man...maybe we need to stop uploading so much stuff!!!...j/k ...i'm re-uploading right now
  11. RetroHumanoid Developers Video Set View File A set of 22 Developer Playlist category videos. Just a handful of my favorite developers,and I do plan to add some more to this set in the future. These match my previous sets which can be found here... Submitter RetroHumanoid Submitted 11/10/2018 Category Playlist Theme Videos

    A set of 22 Developer Playlist category videos. Just a handful of my favorite developers,and I do plan to add some more to this set in the future. These match my previous sets which can be found here...
  13. The actual name of the playlist should be "Top 100 Favorites" ...I would change it to that if you haven't already
  14. So what happens is...the 70+ SNES titles that begin with the word "Super" get all mixed up,and sorted by year,instead of alphabetical....
  15. Thanks.Exactly what problem are you having? ...can you elaborate so maybe I can help you out?
  16. Then all of the games that start with "Super" or "Space" would be way out of order...and there are tons of those
  17. Strange..seems the zip file didn't update for the switch theme... Sorry for the run-around there...I uploaded it again after triple checking it...and the current one should be correct.. At least you got it sorted out though
  18. Fixed..please re-download the Console pack and overwrite your current Switch theme with the new one
  19. yeah...looks like i got a couple mixed up...ill fix them and reupload
  20. That's wierdly the same exact issue I had,if you remember Jason...but,it got fixed in the following beta after I brought up the issue. I did upgrade to the current beta this morning,and noticed a small amount of lag has returned...but,it's not as bad as it was before. Technically not "fixed" ,but more like "upgraded"....
  21. Yep...working on them atm...should be a few days
  22. I left it off,as I didn't really use it myself,and it does cause a slight delay when loading between wheels
  23. Arcade Theme 1.5.2 - Now displays Clear Logo when no Marquee is present Last update for this theme...i'm probably driving the average downloader nuts by now...
  24. honestly,getting the logos to show is the easy part...it's modifying the 65+ different arcade pictures that is the real work. Like I mentioned though,I plan on doing it at some point.
