  1. Is this still happening today?
  2. Since I updated the view on my desktop I figured I might as well adapt it for my GPD Win 10, so here it is...
  3. Cheers @CriticalCid I'm a lot more knowledgeable now than I was at 6am this morning, so if/when I have a creative spark for a theme I wont be overwhelmed to give it a go. (I'm a developer, Windows/Web is not my forte though)
  4. Well... like I said, you inspired me and I learned a few things along the way. I am far from creating my own Themes but I'm certainly blown away by the patience and dedication to those that do. I made the code tweaks (a lot of trial and error) and you're probably asking yourselves.. OK what is he going to do with all that real estate. well I am going to place a long video loop of Gen 1 Transformers
  5. Guys, that's great to hear and very inspiring. I'll continue down the path of using Notepad++ and google syntax etc.. and see what I can hack together.
  6. Cid, its good to know that you used Notepad++ to do all your work because that's exactly the approach I am going to take, so you've given me hope. By the way, that's impressive ! Jason's video was what prompted me to install VS 2017 :-) ill give it another look though.
  7. In my case its more to do with understanding Visual Studio 2017, I'm old school VB5/6 hehehehehe, I had opened your theme in VS 2017 but I was getting so many reference errors to ao.bigbox.themer the markup presentation would not work so I gave up.
  8. @CriticalCid You know how much I love this theme, but i was wondering how much effort would it be (for someone like me) to transform this Platform view to the proposed look (see 2nd Image)

    Here's my 2nd batch of Platform Clear Logos. Enjoy! Here's an example of them in action using CriticalZoneV2 - BlueBox
  10. true, i can do that... i'm using a cheap-o product called Autodesk Graphic on the Mac, but i can export all the native images in whatever format you like (retaining the layers)
  11. @Rincewind would It be ok to create a logo for each of the platforms defined within LaunchBox? its a much smaller list than Vikings 200+ set
  12. @Rincewind I've done 23 so far as I've only got 23 platforms defined to LaunchBox, but I could go full out and add the others, it will just take me a bit of time hahahaha and I agree, @CriticalCid BlueBox theme is awesome, he kindly told me how to alter Platform Logo spacing (which I've done) so I think its getting a lot closer to what I want.
  13. @CriticalCid Thanks again, I played around with the values per your suggestion and works great with my current clear logos (rectangle) now I know what values to mess with I will give it a go with the square logos now. btw... so much easier to test the highlighting when the opacity is ramped up to 9 :-)
  14. Cheers Cid!! I will give that try now. I understand the back n forth and the time it takes, but it will be worth it.
  15. @CriticalCid Regarding Critical ZoneV2-Blue Box:- quick question for you.... XAML, do you have a spacing value for Platform Wheel 4 ? I am messing around with Square Platform Logos and I was hoping they would be spaced evenly, please see below:-
    This theme is perfect for my GPD Win 10, it’s simple, lightweight and quick.
  16. I have the platform clear logo template down and doesn't take long to create a single platform logo, I only have 23 so here's a peek at my BigBox setup.... so far. @Jason Carr @Rincewind @CriticalCid
  17. @Rincewind Cheers bud! I'm going with the rectangle for now, i will circle back with the square ones if my proofing looks good enough. Heres what I've done so far....
  18. @Rincewind Totally agree with you, i should have stated that the broken glass alternative could be used for those emulators with less than 100% compatability, so its more of a visual cue. Also..... as i use the horizontal platform selection view, i was thinking of having square icons... see below.
  19. Need your opinion before i move forward, please take a look at the examples and provide feedback.
  20. My 1080p Overlays.zip View File I wanted to give back with some of my own Platform overlays/bezels I use via Launchbox & Retroarch My_1080p_Overlays.zip Submitter y2guru Submitted 09/07/2017 Category Platform Bezels/Overlays
