Adding Artwork via Launchbox ID#

[Nick4222]

Hey LB community!  I hope someone out there can help me.  I have found a group of clear logos that I really love, but they are named according to their Launchbox ID#.  Is there any way to easily assign them to the appropriate games in my RetroArch theme (as opposed to dragging and dropping each one individually)?  Help and Thanks!

I think you lost me on "RetroArch theme". Do you mean Big Box theme?

If you do, and they are game specific clear logos, they are most likely made for a specific theme, and my guess is that you could drag/drop them into the themes folders and they would work. If you are wanting to use them in an unintended theme, it's still possible, but would require more work.

Where those images go, are usually inside of a folder path like:

• LaunchBox\Themes\[theme name]\Images\Games\[random custom image name]

Then in the theme's game view you'd like to use them in, you'd have to change the image type code to match the custom image folder name.

This process is mapped out inside of the theme documentation.pdf located in your LaunchBox\themes folder.
