        Hi there, I love this theme, it's so polished! Thanks for your hard work! Are you planning of doing a version with the buttons swapped?

        Thanks!

          @alexkiddd thank you for checking it out and your kind words. I am not fully following your question regarding swapped buttons. Can you help clarify?

            @alphatoanant I absolutely love your theme but after I started scraping roms using Skyscraper by @muldjord something really bugged me and that's where the text is for example I wish I could make art book a bit more like this image : https://goo.gl/images/3s2wQz
            (But just the image section, I like the way the game list is already)
            Can you tell me what I need to edit in order to make it like this - I don't mind if I lose access to video previews. Sorry this message is really long.

              @sammyboy What you are looking at in that image is a scraper that makes a MIX image. I believe that is documented in the forum some where.

                  @hooperre @HurricaneFan Thanks for the help but now my problem is that I want art book to display the image like it does on carbon with the picture above and the description, release date, rating, developer, etc all below the image. And what I need is someone to tell me what to change in the theme.xml file of art book.

                    Was there ever any update on the optional code to display publisher and developer info rather than last played and ratings in this theme?

                        @alphatoanant how will I change the layout of another system (e. g. Arcade) into the snes layout?

                          @alphatoanant In the control scheme of your theme you have the SNES layout, where B is where the X button is on the ps3 controller and the X and Y buttons are also swapped :D

                            I made a modification to the theme so it shows developer and publisher info rather than the last played and such. Moved ratings down as well.

                              @duiz would it be possible to have all six categories shown on the snes layout e.g. Developer, last played, ect.

                                @sammyboy It's possible, just a matter of placement and organizing

                                  @duiz could you publish your mods? I'd like to have DEVELOPER and PUBLISHER displayed too...

                                          Is @alphatoanant still making updates to this theme?
