Changing background in Big Box Playlists/Games Screen

[BDiesel757]

On all of my playlists and many of my games, this default Big Box wallpaper (pictured) is in the background. How can I change that to a custom background for each game or even just one standard background of my choosing? I've tried changing my background priorities and default background in Launchbox, but that has not helped. What should I do?

Those backgrounds are driven by the theme. In order to have a playlist show a custom background you need to add a background image for it to the theme's folder in the \Images\Theme\Background folder. The image needs to be named exactly as your playlist is named. You can do the same with the logo and instead of BigBox have it show a logo for the playlist. The logo would go in the theme's folder in the \Images\Theme\Logo folder.

Are you looking in the theme's folder as I advised or are you looking in the LB image folder? Those are two different locations.
