@lipebello we are unfortunately very familiar with greedy scumbags taking our work and selling it as their own, tis a pity.

I think I speak for everyone in saying your work is top notch. Thanks for your contributions even if you're put off from future developments

[lipebello]

@herb_fargus I can imagine, it's pretty easy to lost the will to contribute when you realise the amount of people that do these stuff.

I've finished to create all the repositories.

@lipebello

Glad to see you back and sorry for your troubles. Thanks for sharing your work. It really is spectacular.

@lipebello hey bro!

If you remember well you'll know my older son (a comic book nerd) loves your RetroRama theme so much, with all those references to the Super Heroes logos. When the repo was gone I became very sad...

You coming back and posting your work at github again made my day! Very happy to see you here :D

By the way, would you mind to reupload your awesome RetroRama themed launching images too?

Just to remember, the repository was named retrorama-launching-images and it had a directory named 16x9-packs with three directories:

• FRAME
• GRID
• NOGRID

and each one had its own subdirectories with the name of the systems.

You may wonder why I am providing all these details... It's because I made my rpie-art tool able to install your launching images getting from your old repo. If you keep the previous directory structure I won't need to change anything on the rpi-art files (please, don't call me lazy! :P ).

@lipebello If we would meet in person, I would buy you a drink. o/ᵁ

@meleu Of course i remember, that's why i was feelling sad to have 10GB of work lying on an ext drive without real use, while sellers out there already have them. I really loved how my childhood passions are the same as a lot of people out there. Also that's why i agree with everything that has been said here, i was feeling like i was punishing the wrong people.

I'll upload the launching images now, but i'm remaking the overlays to make them look more real, so it will take a while for me to finish it.

@Clyde , i would love that. Thanks!

@lipebello Thanks for all of your hard work, and I'm glad that you're back in the scene. You have the support of everyone here, and you're not alone; your hard work does not go unnoticed, and neither do your struggles. I also think that as your gain more traction, people will know when they see someone ripping off your work. To add to that, there might even be a way for you to secretly hide or blend in your name, logo, or insignia somewhere in your work, almost like an Easter egg.

@lipebello I echo @Clyde 's sentiment. If you have a paypal.me, I would gladly send over a $10 for the hard work you put into this and the ultra nice graphics I've been showing my friends for the past year. Cheers, thanks for all the fish!

@meleu Many thanks in the name of all who are too lazy or dumb to look that up, like myself! :D

@lipebello could you please step in here and confirm that you want to see your themes installable via RetroPie-setup: https://github.com/RetroPie/RetroPie-Setup/pull/2373

@scoot75 Update your RetroPie installation (really only the RetroPie install script needs to be updated) and the themes will appear in the list.

[scoot75]
