AllNightLong Theme

Support will be slow, sorry for that. If you run into issues concerning the custom banner images, please refresh the images first. Also please check your LaunchBox image options for fallbacks. I could not test all the platforms so there could be file naming issues.

Updated view. Decided to dump the horizontal menu. Tried to make it and almost succeed, but I think it was too hidden from the eye to be user friendly.Hi,

Here is my first vision of the gameview.

I would like to make the menu horizontal. Is that possible with the tools? I have not done much research yet.

Here is a link to the template: https://xd.adobe.com/view/d31b131d-2522-4f51-456f-f37fa15d76ed-a52a/

I wanted to know if the horizontal menu is possible to make. I will make more views when I have the gameview ready.

hmm I believe you'll need a plugin which requires programming knowledge in C#. But first try in XAML worth a shot.

Thanks. I was just googling that  Tried the community theme creator and I think i' am better of using text-editors.

Here's my updated game details view. I think I achieved what I wanted and now going to make more views.

Final touches for the game details view. Tested on 46 inch tv from 3 meters away and was able to read the text. Now finally going to make those other views.

I really like it, it's gorgeous !

[C-Beats]

So far the theme looks really cool. Be fun to see where you end up. Keep up the good work.

[Kondorito]

That details view looks awesome! I am really curious now to see what are you doing with the plats and games views

Thanks for the support!

Here's my first platforms view. Got the idea from Bannerbox theme. I really liked the idea. Keeping things clean and simple. Trying to find ways to keep this theme responsive by not using custom art. I may have to test this view in the community theme editor to find out is this actually possible to make.

This is looking very interesting. Clean and simple

Got it working in BigBox. Found some nice clip art. Now to do some animations. I'am having trouble with the animations in Community Theme Creator.

I'm looking very much forward to try this out when it's done. Looks great!

It's coming alive. Here's a sneak peak. Finally got the hang of animating with the tool.

Cool! What is the transition time set to? IMO it takes just a tick too long before the logo shows up, but that's just my preference

Thanks! Your right, I adjusted it from .2s --> .02s. It can't be any faster.

Just an idea, in keeping with Faerans banner theme: how about using Device Fanart as a background on each platform? Just a thought

Example:

Sorry, but I can't. I need to keep the look and feel across all the views the same. The BannerBox banners are great but they look nothing like I would design. My theme is going to look a bit dull compared to other themes. There are so many colorful and visually mind blowing themes already made, so I thought I could make something different. Like Gandalf always said: Keep It Clean, Keep It Simple.

The theme is coming along beautifully and I could not agree with you more. Making BannerBox style banners would simply make this theme a variant of BannerBox. How clean this theme looks (not that BannerBox is bad by any means) is a nice change and how I would recommend keeping it.
