Chicuelo Theme
-
@chicuelo Thats why when I installed your theme from the retropie menu is was blank. I'd love to have it on my system. Will you ever upload it again??
-
@thnder Sorry but no, Im still receiving messages from people who saw my theme used and auto credited by others.
-
@rolle Any chance for 5:4 or 4:3 aspect ratio support while you are at it? ;)
-
So this awesome theme is gone for good? :(
Now you basically encourage these scumbags to rip off your theme even more.
-
@JesseBlue this might be true, but i think we have to respect chicuelos descision.
I will keep his work in honor and can understand that he at least will give no further support and updates.
It is a shame indeed concerning this wonderful theme, but nethertheless its the creators choice. -
Well that's too bad. Hopefully this theme will inspire another in a similar style. The challenge is out there to match it or top it I guess :)
-
@Keigan Thanks for uploading this
-
@keltoigael How did you change the colour of the logos?
-
Hi! I just upload my reworked theme based on the fantastic work of Chicuelo. I mainly reworked the gamelist page, changed the visuals to a more vintage style, and added some new exotic systems like visualpinball, zinc, atomiswave, cave, model 2 & 3, etc ...for a total of 60 systems!
You can download the modified theme here : https://www54.zippyshare.com/v/sHaPmbaP/file.htmlFull view :
System page with vintage visuals and red logo.
New gamelist page with logo on the top of the list, and more game informations (genre, released date, rating, ...)

@chicuelo glad to see you're still around! I was very upset to see the way people mistreated and misused your theme. Your chicuelo theme is still one of my favorites.

The theme was pulled off from Github and it's not installable from the RetroPie themes module.
-
Sooooo how do I install it?
-
@mikeydoom You don't - as I said, the theme is not available, as the author wished.

It is really beyond disgusting what these greedy a******s did by taking Chicuelo's theme and trying to sell it off as their own creation.
I followed the thread from the beginning and one thing that truly amazed me was the hard work and dedication both by @chicuelo as well as all the other community members who contributed to the theme. Such work shows off the best aspects of open sourcing, but it only takes a few bad ones to spoil the whole deal for everyone.
Having said that, I had an earlier version of Chicuelo's theme which I decided to rework to match the original Commodore 64 OS colours, as well as changing the system artwork etc. Would it be ok with Chicuelo to provide a link to the theme / or open a new thread for it?
I also made another remix, this time keeping the original colours but adding new system screens as well as some other minor enhancements, but if Chicuelo wants to keep it offline I totally understand and respect the decision.
Cheers,

@nil06 Thanks for your kind words Nick, Im still working on the theme, refining graphics and updating some artwork but I would not share It again. Its a pity as a designer it's harmful when you work on a project, share for free and then you get some "pro builders" selling it.
-
@chicuelo Only checked your reply today. That's a shame. I was really looking forward to use your theme in my new arcade.
