[ How to use custom platform fanart backgrounds in LaunchBox BigBox ; Fixing black backgrounds in BigBox ]
I figured it out!
1. Open LaunchBox not BigBox2. Tools > Options > Images > Background Properties (Disable ALL but "Fanart - Background")
3. Open HDD:\Users\*User Name*\LaunchBox\Images\Platforms\*Platform Name*\Fanart
4. Place your Image in the folder (I personally Rename the image to the same as the folder, in my case it is "Atari_800")
5. Open BigBox Go to Options > Image > "Use Platform Device Image Backgrounds" Enable it
BOOM!! it Works! that's what i did anyways.
you have this post to thank- 1

Bump!
I came across this thread about a month ago, and here I am again trying to make the UI look nice. i gave up last time, but i know there is a way! any help or tips on how to to this would be greatly apreciated!
(btw, i've seen that this is possible judging by what i've seen on the Launchbox youtube channel; I thought i saw something similar to someone using default platform fan art)
Yeah, having logos as backgrounds doesn't really work; nor does having a black screen on 1000+ games in BigBox mode. I'm using the CleanBG theme. default platform fanart would be awesome if not alread possible.
A youtube tutorial would be Awesome!
Keep up the great work guys, I love what you all have created! <3
How do I set backgorunds and details when I go into View Series mode?

Good day everyone, today I would like to ask a question.
How do I set backgorunds and details when I go into View Series mode?
Okay so by default, LaunchBox doesn't scrape for the "Series" metadata. So I decided to use that metadata to sort my games by their series.
After I added some games into series and checked them I noticed all the backgrounds are Black and there is no Information or game info.
Is there a way to set custom backgrounds and game info for each series? i looked for options and setting to change this but I didn't find anything.
See attached Image. Thanks you all
