angelobodetti Posted August 15, 2016 Share Posted August 15, 2016 Thank you! I just took a shot at making a Famicom one using your NES background. I am mierable at photo editing so its not great... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
niglurion Posted August 15, 2016 Author Share Posted August 15, 2016 Nice! Btw, i can't open your image in fullscreen (Internal error 500). But the thumb is good enough Maybe I'll add it in the archive tomorrow if I can download it in full resolution. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
angelobodetti Posted August 15, 2016 Share Posted August 15, 2016 Actually now that I am looking closer I see that your NES background without platform is labeled wrong, it is actually GameBoy boxes. I do not have a clean version of your NES background so I can't upload the Famicom one because it is on top of GameBoy boxes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
niglurion Posted August 15, 2016 Author Share Posted August 15, 2016 Ahah.... It was a trap I corrected the archive. Thank you. For the Famicom background, I'll take famicom covers only (from the games DB), not NES. I think it's better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

niglurion Posted August 16, 2016 Author Share Posted August 16, 2016 @angelobodetti it's ok, 8 news systems added!(Atari2600 / Atari5200 / Atari7800 / Atari Jaguar / Atari Jaguar CD / Famicom / Virtual Boy / Turbografx CD) But for Beats of Rage / Daphne and MUGEN, I don't think I'll make them... I can't retreive enough covers/images to make a grid or the time to make a proper wall, sorry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
angelobodetti Posted August 16, 2016 Share Posted August 16, 2016 Thank you! Beats of Rage is definitely tricky, for MUGEN I figured the only thing that would look decent would be the characters as the background (since there are no real boxes) - attached. I Daphne has like 12 games or so but no clue if there are boxes. Would you do games repeating? Meaning if you can only get 6 or so box covers, would you repeat them inside your background to make it look more full? Either way, THANK YOU SO MUCH! These look amazing and have definitely stepped up my console screen! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
angelobodetti Posted August 16, 2016 Share Posted August 16, 2016 I have attached about 30 Beats of Rage Boxes/Cover Art (it is built from title screens - No Idea what the console image would be? Maybe the Streets of Rage characters? Beats_of_Rage.zip Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
niglurion Posted August 16, 2016 Author Share Posted August 16, 2016 Thank you @angelobodetti. Is that's good? I'll add them in the pack later if you're ok. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jason Carr Posted August 16, 2016 Share Posted August 16, 2016 If this keeps up we might have to distribute this theme with LaunchBox itself! 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd love that When we can dynamically link any image with a plateform, we will make much better themes, I think. Change the theme structure is one thing, but associate manually every background is like 'brute force' a theme . The same is true for Gifs. I look forward to play with that But first things first! There are much important things to do before that. Edited August 17, 2016 by niglurion 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ALIE Posted August 17, 2016 Share Posted August 17, 2016 Is there a setting that allows for making the consoles a little bit smaller? Also I noticed some are not fully on screen wondering if that is something we can tweak. Also I didn't that to sound to critical. It's absolutely a gorgeous theme.

niglurion Posted August 17, 2016 Author Share Posted August 17, 2016 No sorry, it's deliberately big and cut. And they are just "images", we can't tweak them directly. You can use versions without consoles if it's too large on your monitor. (I've tested this theme only on 1080p and 1440p monitors) I didn't want to show the device baner over the background because that creates an issue with animations and uniformity. Thank you 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ALIE Posted August 17, 2016 Share Posted August 17, 2016 Might be a stupid question but are the console images the ones from the LB database? Or do I get them elsewhere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
niglurion Posted August 17, 2016 Author Share Posted August 17, 2016 Images are from multiple sources like the LB Database, yes, this site and google Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
