      Hi! I use, mainly, two themes for Retropie : carbon and mini nes. In carbon I use a combination of arts (screenshot, 3d box and logo) and in mini nes theme I'd like to use the 2d box art.

      Is there any way to download that art with a different name/location or edit the theme, so depending on the theme it use one or another art?

      Thanks a lot in advance!

        Short answer: No.

        Long answer: You can find workarounds to achieve that. Such as keeping different gamelist.xml files and changing them according to the theme. But there isn't any tool ready to change/rename the files automatically.

        If I remember right @jdrassa talked about ES having a feature to launch custom scripts after changing themes, AFAIK it was just an idea. Nothing implemented yet...
