celly

@lordnicholas idk how I missed this, this looks great! Can’t wait to give it a spin.

@mitu Fantastic, thank you!

Any theme with 4:3 version should get a lot of love, and this theme is awesome.

Great work, thank you for sharing.

Now, that actually looks amazing!

By the way, just in case anyone's interested. My brother Dylan has a few doggie goggles for sale. If anyone's interested, feel free to PM me.

Hey @lordnicholas, that looks pretty darn cool. It makes me happy that my tutorial is still helpful to people (even though it's now woefully out of date, considering all the awesome stuff that's now part of RetroPie).

The only suggestion I might make is that the 2 non-active logos look a bit lost in the dark background, but that probably won't be a problem once you make your own synth logos.

lordnicholas

@mattrixk Thanks so much! Seriously, your tutorial was invaluable. Agreed, those other logos could be a bit more visible. On to the daunting task of reskinning logos for every system...

@lordnicholas Hey man, I just got an arcade cab with a Raspberry Pi in it and I got to tinkering with ES and RetroPie. I signed up to the forum, not for support, but to thank you for this great theme, and for even putting the effort into making a 4:3 version! Really very awesome. Cool, sleek and functional design, keep it up!

lordnicholas

@WeirdH Thanks so much! That's so awesome. Do you have pictures you can share? Would love to see it.

WeirdH

@lordnicholas The theme of the cab itself (a bartop on a detachable pedestal) does kind of clash with Retrowave, but I don't mind that much...

@lordnicholas +100 for using a remix of Crockett's Theme from Miami Vice :D

lordnicholas

@WeirdH Damn, that is SO COOL!! Thanks for sharing!

I used your theme as a layout for my own theme, if I give you credit for your work may I release it?

lordnicholas

@mikeydoom Sure, go for it! Sharing is caring.
