Would I be able to do it if I didn't use background images? I keep mine as just the simple black and charcoal colours. Edited March 16, 2018 by sw1fty808 Quote
imdavid555 Posted March 17, 2018 Posted March 17, 2018 i am having an issue where my Jpeg platform clear logos don't work in the games view. Converting to PNG resolves this problem. Anyone else run into this issue? i circled the area where mine are missing. 1 Quote

I really appreciate this. My setup is now complete. That has been bugging me for the longest time. I should have asked sooner. I look forward to seeing what you create next because this theme is perfection. Clean, elegant and defined with a perfectly arranged and balanced presentation of details and artwork. Bravo. 1 Quote

Styphelus Posted March 19, 2018 Posted March 19, 2018 Instead of it being blurry, can you make it tinted glass? Is that something that's easy to do? Quote

faeran Posted March 19, 2018 Author Posted March 19, 2018 I also released a glass version of RetroFresh and RetroFresh Detailed, which can now be downloaded for whoever wants it. 6 Quote
sc0tt88 Posted July 30, 2018 Posted July 30, 2018 The only problem I'm having is this... My games list shows up with a black background but in your vertical view 1 it shows a blurred image which I want. Not sure how to implement this, where it is reading from, what images I need, etc. Any help appreciated. Quote

Make sure you download that media for any game you would like to see it for. Quote

Is there a way to set it to something more readily available, like a gameplay screenshot? Just so that more of them would have an image. Not that it would matter so much because it's blurred anyway, I just want more of them coloured rather than black Quote

Open the Options and go to Images > Background Priorities Make sure it looks something like this, which uses Fanart Backgrounds first, and then Screenshot - Gameplay if no fanart background is found.
