I'm hoping that's a good reaction - it's difficult to tell :D -
@ruckage It is, its a face of excitement. Can't remember where I found it though

@lilbud
Not sure I've ever seen excitement expressed quite like that before :D, I'm still trying to decide if it's photoshopped or not. -
That new minimal layout should also take care of the long name issue. There is plenty of space.

I recently moved my setup to a 15 inch 1024x768 monitor and I like all the 4x3 layouts for your themes. The carousel icons are larger and the game list shows what is necessary and it matches the retro feeling.
Yeah, I was thinking the same thing regarding long names. I think it should please a few people, @nj180grados being one of them I suspect.
Good to hear that you've used 4:3 mode on my other themes, it's sometimes difficult to know which features are popular. Still a bit of work to do but I should have the new update ready for this theme soon. -
So will the update be available to download through ES themes or do we have to do it manually again?

Yeah, it will be. You don't need to worry about that stuff, as updates to a theme doesn't affect the availability of the theme on the ES theme downloader. (Wow, I used the word "theme" a lot in this post.)

looks really neat as im not a big fan of metadata in themes, personally id reduce the selector bar by about 4 letters/characters just so it does not overwhelm the theme, as for the long file names you do have the option to choose between large or small gamelist fonts.

I've now added a choice of 6 different no-meta layouts which gives the choice of 3 different gamelist widths as well as the choice of having the list on the left or right side of the screen.
Hopefully there should be something to suit everyone now :)GIF preview of the layouts below:

thats really cool having a choice of 6 different no-meta layouts,
i was wandering seen as there is no meta data now, would we be able to customise the box art so that no "published" or "played" meta data is displayed too?
-
Please make a 4:3-compatible of this beautiful theme. It's fantastic.

So much for me thinking that there would be something to suit everyone now :D ......
For now the layouts posted will be the ones available. I'm assuming everyone using retropie scrapes their roms so it's not like the published etc. will be blank. I think I have to draw the line somewhere as I've learned that I'll never be able to 100% suit everyone's preference. I may change my mind at a later date but for now you'll have to settle for what I've provided.

So is this available for Es theme download? Since I went to ES Themes to update the snes mini theme and it says already up to date.
-
@ruckage thanks. There are any ETA? Thanks again for your work. :)

It has not been released yet.

@pokeengineer Darn, Well thanks for the update.

No, not yet, I'm still working on the update. Be patient, as soon as I've finished it will be uploaded and available to download through the theme manager.
-
Sure, no problem.
