      @ruckage this guy is using an unsupported emulationstation version. Your theme has features that are only supported by Retropie emulationstation version, this includes Raspberry pi and Ubuntu script. This isn't your fault, it's a ES devs fault.

      It's no use!!! Take this!!!

        Sorry for not replying sooner, been suffering with man flu the last 3-4 days so haven't felt much like posting (I made an exception to help that new user - won't be doing that again ;) .)

        @FlyingTomahawk @LiveFastCyYoung Thanks for the support, I appreciate that. I like to help people if I can and I'm more than happy to do so - and I know pretty much all the regulars here and the majority of newcomers would do the same in return so I guess it's best to not let the more entitled/toxic users ruin that. It does start to make you a bit less trusting of newcomers though which is a shame as it must make the community a bit less welcoming than it used to be when it first started (I guess that's the case for all communities though as they grow).

        While I see your point I feel I should point out the version of ES we're talking about is a version that @jdrassa maintains, he has made some amazing contributions to ES for retropie - many of the cool new features in ES are down to @jdrassa and this theme wouldn't be possible without them. It's the version I use to develop the themes (it's much easier to do on windows than on the pi itself) and it's possible if there is a bug in this new version it could also be a problem on newer versions of ES for retropie itself. I will investigate further and install the latest ES on the rpi to test so if there is an issue I can report it to the devs to find a solution.

            Man, what a dickhead that guy was. Banned and for good reason.

            @ruckage hey man, sorry I didn't get back to you - the bug fix worked out great and my player icons are back to normal on 720p. Thanks for your help, and don't let that asshat get you down about newcomers - I'm ass deep into retropie and your theme is my go-to. I definitely appreciate you getting back to us on this stuff as quick as you do. And for that, I'm going to leave a little in your tip jar. Hope you get well soon!

                Thanks for the reply, feeling quite a bit better now. It wasn't flu though, just a particularly bad cold (the term 'Man Flu' is a bit of a joke in the UK stemming from men supposedly suffering /moaning more when they have a cold).

                Thanks for the reply and for the donation, I appreciate it.
                Glad the fix worked for you, It will be part of the next update which I really have to get to work on soon (it's about time I added a few more systems).

                            Supergrafx will be added at some point as it's on my todo list (listed on the nes mini thread). By CPS2 logo I assume you mean the finalburn alpha icon. I could maybe add other colours when I have some spare time but I don't really see why it's necessary as FBA covers multiple arcade systems (I know the CPS2 cartridges had different colours for different regions but does it really matter?).

                              You can try creating your own icons, that´s what I have done, I created a pixeled icon for supergrafx (also a supergrafx icon for the Nes mini theme) and also for some other systems, those look aligned with the aesthetic of the theme, however I will use the ones from Ruckage once he release them.

                                My art skills are pretty much none haha. I use this theme on my hacked real snes classic console and I have Cps1 Cps2 & Cps3 hence the other 2 colours blue and orange. As for supergrafx I don't have one :-(

                                  Hello ruckage, are you also planning to make Loading Screens suitable for the SNES Mini Theme?

                                      @ruckage Hey maybe you can help me!

                                      I downloaded this theme and added it to opt/retropie/config/all/emulationstation/themes and it loads fine. I wanted to change the region to USA and the background to blurred_shots_black_vignette so I made the necessary changes to the config.xml file but now the theme does not load any images at all, and retropie throws up "XML parsing error: file was not found" errors. What can I do to customize this theme and have it work?

                                        Please post a copy of your config.xml so I can check for errors.

                                          Hi. You could use the ones I made for nes-mini that @mitu linked to for now but I will probably make a set specifically for the snes-mini theme as well.
