            I made a picture for custom-collections that have all my collections in one Folder with sub-folders.

              @pittstone Nice one! I will only maintain a center image wich contains all of the stuff. For example a blister with mixed characters and objects, or you can use this way and leaving a bigger margin on the edges

                      How can I add the systems list to the bottom as @Wildfire posted above. I did ask for his modded files the same as a few others have but he seems to have vanished from here.

                        @pootis-spencer Try adding the following lines before the final </theme>tag in the theme.xml

                        <feature supported="carousel">
                        <view name="system">
                         <image name="logo2" extra="true">
                        	<path>./_assets/logos/${system.theme}.svg</path>
                        	<origin>0.5 0.5</origin>
                        	<pos>0.232 0.415</pos>
                        	<color>4f5159</color>
                        	<maxSize>0.16 0.16</maxSize>
                         </image>
                        
                         <image name="logo">
                        	<color>eeeeee</color>
                         </image>
                         <carousel name="systemcarousel">
                        	<type>horizontal</type>
                        	<color>00000000</color>
                        	<origin>0.5 1</origin>
                        	<pos>0.5 1</pos>
                        	<size>1 0.08</size> 
                        	<logoScale>0.7</logoScale>
                        	<logoSize>0.3 0.075</logoSize>
                        	<maxLogoCount>7</maxLogoCount>
                         </carousel>
                        </view>
                        </feature>
                        

                        This will replace the orignal carousel with a static logo and will change the carousel to a horizontal version on the bottom of the screen with white colored logos.

                          @ectoone I did that but the logos on the bottom horizontal bar are too big as you can see in this picture.0_1533645498112_IMG_20180807_112409.jpg

                            You can also use the indicator system that is disabled but included in the theme
                            you have to use a indicator file for each system that will display the position on the screen. You can replace with a system logo or even a scroll bar

                              Yea but I really wanted the same that @Wildfire posted hence the bar at the bottom. I think it really finishes it off.

                                  I think there is no space for the logos at the bottom, a dot indicator was the best choice for me, but works for my build because I have no more than 15 systems

                                    @ectoone I did that but the logos on the bottom horizontal bar are too big

                                    You can try to fix it by changing the <logoSize> and the amout of systems with <maxLogoCount>. Like @chicuelo said, the space is very limited. Also from what I can see @Wildfire changed the size of the character images and repositioned the controller images to make some room, so you can try that as well.

                                        Ok I have managed to shift up the controller image and also shrink the character image but I just wondered if anyone can contact @wildfire to see if he would share his mod of this theme? I cant see how to message him on here and he was online today. I think his mod is just perfect and I don't really have the time or patience to try and do it myself, especially the different character images. They just look amazing and seem to pop off the screen.
                                        Can anyone contact him please or even replicate it?

                                          @pootis-spencer This is my config:
                                          <carousel name="systemcarousel">
                                          <logoSize>0.215 0.065</logoSize>
                                          <maxLogoCount>6</maxLogoCount>

                                          i also moved the helpbar to not seeing position:
                                          <helpsystem name="help">
                                          <pos>0.05 1.97</pos>

                                          my controllers Position and Size:
                                          <image name="controller" extra="true">
                                          <path>./_assets/controllers/${system.theme}.png</path>
                                          <pos>0.9795 0.935</pos>
                                          <size>0.235 0.360</size>

                                          than i have updated my imagesize from some logos to fit.

                                            You can just turn the helpsystem off in the options, just FYI.
