          @gamer85 Ah that's perfect. I'll do the Model 1 you found. I couldn't find an image that clear.

              Pixel TFT 0.2 Now with more TRS-80 ACTION!

              Updated Pixel with TRS-80, so I also added TRS-80 to the TFT version.
              -Sorry for the Genesis games, I don't have TRS-80 so I just tested with Genesis. Bad screenshot, too. Looks better in ES.

                @Rookervik Thank you for the update. Looks awesome, but if you want feedback, I have just one suggestion. The TRS-80 Model I and TRS-80 Model III did not display color. Your header theme looks great, but the three color bars (red, green & blue) that you are using in pixel-tft_0.2 were part of the CoCo logo not TRS-80 Model I and Model III. One suggestion would be to remove the 3 color bars and make the TRS-80 text bigger to match the same font as Radio Shack. I have included a picture of the TRS-80 Model I power supply to get an idea of what the original text looked like. Also I have included two game images to give you an idea what the actual graphics looked like. The last image is the CoCo (Color Computer) where you can see the logo in the upper right corner. Again, those color bars were not part of the Model I and Model III.

                  @gamer85 GOSH! I'll fix it one day. TRS-80 has given me more problems than any other system. Promise I will fix it. Soonish. :D

                      @gamer85 Before I go and waste time drawing it in pixel, will this logo suffice?

                            @Rookervik The TRS-80 Model I/III Icon looks great. Fantastic job. Thank you.

                              @Rookervik wanted to mention that pixel-tft_0.2 was missing the Texas Instruments TI-99 4A icon. Just an fyi if you ever have time to add. Absolutely no rush and no urgency. I have included a few images of the TI-99 4A for your review. Again, understand if this item is something that you may not be able to get to.

                                /me wonders if there are other 100% complete themes besides carbon?

                                  After adding TI-99 to Pixel, I noticed that in this low resolution version of the theme, all systems have the same background color. It will probably take some time to re-build this theme and fix all of the colors for the systems. (so, for each system, create custom color xml)

                                      @Rookervik why do you not create a minilumi static and video splashscreens with the video one based on the carbon one? they could be gorgeous mixed with your theme
