      @UDb23 These are great - thank you!

      I resized the controller icons as they were still larger than the remaining ones (the page size for the other ones is 598px x 350px), but other than that these are perfect.

      I submitted a PR for Carbon here, so that these changes are kicked off:

      https://github.com/RetroPie/es-theme-carbon/pull/34

      The main reason being that I will have limited access to a Pi and likely even a proper development laptop from mid-next week, and wanted to make sure Carbon was updated as Collections are now officially part of ES.

      I encourage you to submit any new changes to Carbon directly, if you're still looking into other icons.

      In particular, the only comment I have now is that the "Custom Collections" system can just be called "Collections", as that was the end name we settled on during the development thread with the remaining theme creators, so if that helps, see what would inspire you :)

      Thank you very much for enduring this for the last several weeks in your very limited free time!

      Best.

        @pjft Thank you for putting all this together and providing all of us with Collections in Carbon ! And thanks for the credits on github.

        I will create a couple of proposals for the "collections" logo (w/o "custom"), post them here asking for opinions. Based on that I'll submit a pull request on Carbon.

          @udb23 not at all, you really had all the hard work, I just didn't want to give you the burden of having to also update the theme. Still, the basis is there now so you will be able to update only the images with a pull request :)

          Thanks for it all!

          Hope you're doing well.

            Here's the updated "system" logo. (removed "custom" wording and changed color to avoid being too similar to Advmame logo as some people noticed).

            More fancier logo proposal coming in the future.

            If you like it can you please submit PR request for Carbon to replace the old one with this ?

            Edit: link to the SVG file here.

              @udb23 Thanks - this looks stellar.

              I don't have access to a development environment at the moment, so the PR will have to take a bit. If anyone wishes to submit the PR, please do so, otherwise I'll pick this up in the coming weeks.

              Thanks for doing this!

                @pjft I could fork the Carbon repo and then submit the PR. Let me check this tonight.

                        @mediamogul Hey man. I know this is a bit old, but what are the chances of getting a PNG or SVG of that sweet Last Played logo you made?

                        I love the idea of using the old school flip-clock

                          No problem. A friend of mine has been asking for the set and I keep forgetting to upload it, so I might as well kill two birds here. This zip file has the artwork for all four, but obviously the 'Last Played' can be integrated by itself.

                          Thanks! Just in time for Groundhog Day too.

                            @udb23 That DK Favorites image is epic. Any chance of re-sharing the SVG? Unfortunately the original github lands to a 404. :(

                              @foldi84 isn't that the one that's the default on the Carbon theme these days?

                                  @pjft Is it really!? Sweet. I will download carbon and take a peak.

                                  I've literally not updated my box after customizing it almost 2 years ago, and I've been running with Eudora, and customized main menu.

                                    @foldi84 Yes it is the default. You can directly access the logo here.

                                        I'm slacking off at work today. I liked the style of the recalbox favorites logo, but i feel like it's kind of simple and boring, so i'm working on my own.

                                        0_1500494332177_favorites.jpg

                                        Hi Capeman, this logo is awesome! Do you have a version with an alpha background?
