              @sergioad feel free to let me know if you're interested in any systems that may be missing. I'm doing them on kinda some person needs them basis.

                I'm glad to see this finally hit the installer. It's hands down my favorite theme, being a PS fanboy and all.
                I've been trying to think of something to do for the custom collection since I saw your post this morning, and I'm still at a stand still on original ideas.

                    I found this to take screenshots, it works great.

                    Basically this guide will teach you how to set up Raspi2PNG, use a single command script
                    and set up a samba link to easily access those screen shots from a designated folder.

                    Step 1
                    First you need to get the program/dependency and compile the bin

                    sudo apt-get install libpng12-dev

                    git clone https://github.com/AndrewFromMelbourne/raspi2png
                    cd raspi2png
                    make

                    Step 2
                    Now you need to move raspi2png to your local bin and create a .sh script

                    sudo mv raspi2png /usr/local/bin

                    sudo nano /usr/local/bin/screenshot.sh

                    sudo chmod +x /usr/local/bin/screenshot.sh

                    copy and paste this

                    #!/bin/bash
                    raspi2png -p ~/RetroPie/screenshots/$(date +%m%d%Y_%H%M%S).png

                    save by "ctrl + x" then "y"

                    Step 3
                    now to create screenshots folder and add samba link

                    mkdir ~/RetroPie/screenshots

                    sudo nano /etc/samba/smb.conf

                    copy and paste this at the end of the file

                    [screenshots]
                    comment = screenshots
                    path = "/home/pi/RetroPie/screenshots"
                    writeable = yes
                    guest ok = yes
                    create mask = 0644
                    directory mask = 0755
                    force user = pi

                    Step 4
                    Restart Samba server and take your first screenshot

                    sudo service smbd restart

                    in terminal type

                    screenshot.sh

                    Step 5
                    Access your screenshots folder through samba

                    \retropie

                    or mac os x

                    smb://retropie

                    Step 6
                    Clean up left over folder

                    sudo rm -r ~/raspi2png

                      @lostless just stubbled on this theme when updating one my Pi's. Very nice, reminds me of 1998 all over again :D

                      My only problem is, no Amiga or ZX Spectum logos?

                        @lostless could I by chance get a psd of the background you use for each system name? Trying to make this screen with a few modifications. alt text

                          @lostless Can you please update this theme to include metadata? That would really push this theme over the top!
                          Thanks

                            I mainly made this theme for myself and my PlayStation project. I just happily shared it here for others. I don’t plan to update it. You are free to edit the theme yourself and make it your own. It’s how I got into learning making this theme was editing another theme and see how it’s all put together.

                              @lostless Ah that’s a pity, this would’ve been a great theme for all the PlayStation classic mods that are gonna be popping up. It’s a great theme as is, but a little too plain with only the cover art.

                              Thanks for your response..

                                @dirty_horror I may one day work on it again, if I can remember how to code a theme. Lol. It’s been a while. but I’ve never really been a fan of metadata. Artwork is all I’ve ever used. Now’s the time for you to learn like I did. It was actually quite fun to learn myself and see come into a full fledged theme. It wasn’t that hard to learn. Good luck

                                    @soulgriever here's the raw data and psd files. Have fun looking at them and making this theme your own.

                                      To the author: are you aware Sony could be very inspired from your theme for PlayStation Classic? Gui resemblance is more than suspicious.

                                        @DarishZone I doubt it. Nothing looks like any of my artwork. And I was inspired by sonys ps1 menu. they are using the original font, where on mine I got a close enough one. Also It’s not that hard to make a gradient background. I stole the colors from the official background of the original to make mine.

                                          Uhm, that's my fault, i was not aware of original purple bubbles gui, i remember my old PSX feature the grid (horrible) menu system, not sure if that was for pal territory, or they just simply redesign it later.
