OFFICIAL COLORFUL ASSET : COLORFUL Theme : The main hub, a unique interface for BigBox. Design by me, coded by @faeran COLORFUL Platform Video : Complete 4K video set, with a unique design. COLORFUL Source : To involve the community in the platform video creation. COLORFUL BigBox Startup Video : custom video to match the general design. COLORFUL Hardware Media PNG (1x1) : Taken from my videos, the 1x1 PNG set. (new) COLORFUL Startup Theme : (soon) COLORFUL Pause Theme : (soon) RECOMMENDED COMMUNITY ASSET : Redrawn Platform ClearLogo by @Dan Patrick Colorful "Playlist" PNG set by @Klopjero Colorful custom theme for Android by @Bawnanable Platform Funtech Super A'can & Platform Arcade Kaneko by @evo1man Alternative Colorful Platform ClearLogo Set by @soqueroeu Alternative Startup Theme (Minimal-Colorful) by @Palada Recommended SoundPack with Steam Deck UI by @Phox # HERE IS COLORFUL THEME FOR BIGBOX: On this page we are talking about COLORFUL Theme for BigBox: Design for work with my platform video set, COLORFUL THEME is thought to be used on the big screen (TV) in gaming console mode. Modern, elegant and animated are the key words of this interface. The COLORFUL project is getting too big for me alone. @faeran has taken over the source code of the theme. A BIG THANKS to you for your support and your precious help !! # IN DETAIL ? The main features : 16:9 only. (Works on other ratio, but with black bands) Full 4K asset. (Any resolution must work, 4K assets) Totally responsive. No resolution deformation on text size or placement. Because of the white/black background, some ClearLogo comes with the theme. Gamepad connection indicator & battery level. # RECOMMENDATION ? Any design choice gives limitations. Here are some recommendations for this theme : LaunchBox/BigBox up to date. VLC highly recommended. Design for work with COLORFUL platform video set. (but you can use any video you what) Beware of full white/black ClearLogo. They will be invisible on Light/Dark views! I didnt test this theme on a lowend configuration. There may be slowdown. (Curious to have your feedback on this subject!) # COOL, HOW TO DOWNLOAD ? 2 ways : In Windows : Right here, with the download button. Extract the "Colorful" folder and place it in your "LaunchBox/Themes" directory. (dont rename it!) In BigBox : Option > Theme manager > Found "COLORFUL - Light" or "COLORFUL - Dark". # HOW TO EDIT ? You can now edit this theme within the COMMUNITY Theme Creator, using the COMMUNITY Theme Creator files below (current version from the CTC 2.3): Colorful Light - COMMUNITY Theme Creator Files - Colorful - Light - 2.02 - COMMUNITY Theme Creator Files.zip Colorful Dark - COMMUNITY Theme Creator Files - Colorful - Dark - 2.02 - COMMUNITY Theme Creator Files.zip # SPECIAL THANKS ! @Jason Carr for his hard work on LaunchBox/BigBox!

Tromzy Posted September 9, 2019 Posted September 9, 2019 Hi, thanks for this awesome theme ! I have one bug though : the "A" button of the "Press A" platform view does not show ; I have it in LaunchBox\Themes\Colorful\Colorful_img\Colorful_PlatformWheel1_ButtonStart_XBox.png though. Any idea ? Quote
zetec-s-joe Posted September 9, 2019 Posted September 9, 2019 Congrats on the theme, looks beautiful, something very differnt for sure! the more themes for big screen TV's the better Quote
Zyril1979 Posted September 10, 2019 Posted September 10, 2019 (edited) Hi Viking ! What a beautiful theme! Simple, clean, elegant. BRAVO! LaunchBox_Big_Box_2019-09-10_10-06-47.mp4 Edited September 10, 2019 by Cyril1979 Quote
viking Posted September 10, 2019 Author Posted September 10, 2019 @Tromzy : Strange bug ... In general, either you have nothing, or you have everything! The problem continues after reboot BigBox? Or refresh the image cache? @zetec-s-joe : Thx !!! ? @Cyril1979 : Merci pour le commentaire et la vidéo !! @dov_EL : I'm not sure I understand. Which final version? I only posted the BETA version... If you're talking about a problem with the "BigBox Theme Manager" version, I'm aware of it. I think the mistake comes from me by giving a wrong name to the ZIP archive containing the theme. Look in your folder "Launchbox / themes / ...". The folder containing my theme should be name "Colorful". Only this. 1 1 Quote
thimolor Posted September 10, 2019 Posted September 10, 2019 Finally a custom theme that looks great! I don't know anything about custom theme development, but would it be ease to make a dark version of this theme? Thank you for all the hard work! Became a patreon with a small sum. Quote
CrossyX Posted September 10, 2019 Posted September 10, 2019 (edited) Stunning theme, thank you. I tried to install from theme manager but had issues, even after reboot, refresh images. I downloaded the Zip from here and installed it that way and everything looks and works fine. You will probably get a few people asking as the official Launchbox Youtube channel has a video showing how to install your theme via theme manager in the latest 10.0 release video. Thanks again.

viking Posted September 10, 2019 Author Posted September 10, 2019 @thimolor : Thx man!!! ? a blark version is not planned for the moment, but why not! @CrossyX : You're right ! An error on my part during the upload... I just upload a fix. It remains to wait for Jason's validation to be online. Thx for the feedback. 1 Quote

viking Posted September 10, 2019 Author Posted September 10, 2019 Yes, an error on my part during the upload. I corrected it, we just have to wait for Jason to validate the change in the backoffice. By the way, these are exactly the same version here and in BigBox. Both in BETA ? Quote

Styphelus Posted September 10, 2019 Posted September 10, 2019 I like it, but why not use some of the blank space on the top left side for more info? Also, is there a way to display the cart/cd at the bottom right corner of the cover art? Aside from that it looks really clean. Well done. Really well designed. Quote

Tromzy Posted September 10, 2019 Posted September 10, 2019 I tried redownloading the theme (not from Big Box, from here) and still the same... Quote
viking Posted September 10, 2019 Author Posted September 10, 2019 Maybe delete and redownload the theme ?? Quote
Cypher Posted September 11, 2019 Posted September 11, 2019 This is like 95% of what I want in a theme, and I'm only saying 95% because it's in beta. This is amazing work. 1 Quote
viking Posted September 11, 2019 Author Posted September 11, 2019 @Tromzy : Honestly, I have no idea where the problem comes from. It's very strange! That all images are displayed well, except this one!? I dont know what to answer you. ? @Cypher : Thx man !!!! ? Quote

For some reason, my platform view was set to "Platform Wheel2" instead of 1. Setting it to 1 makes the button appear ! Thank you for trying to help ! Edited September 11, 2019 by Tromzy Typo Quote
