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)- 626 replies

theme CriticalZone / CriticalZone - BlueBox
y2guru replied to CriticalCid's topic in Big Box Custom Themes
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- 626 replies

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.- 626 replies

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.- 626 replies

y2guru replied to CriticalCid's topic in Big Box Custom Themes
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.- 626 replies

@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)- 626 replies

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)

@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
-
@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.

@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 :-)- 626 replies

@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:-- 626 replies

@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....
-
@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.
