      What's the status of this theme? Is there any updated version with systems like 3DO and Atari Jaguar?

        Hi. I'm new to retropie, just got my first raspberry (a Pi 4), so as soon as retropie was relased for it, I've started to read and watch everything I've found. As soon as I came across the Retorama theme and associatted studd, I knew it would be the theme for the arcade cabine I'm building. Huge thanks to @lipebello, I can't even imagine the amount of effort and time put into creating such beatiful art.

        By the way, will the theme in 3:4 format finally come out? That woule be graeat as I'm planning on using and old CRT TV for my cabinet.

        Again, thanks to @lipebello for sharing this amazing work.

        Cheers

            @lipebello your retrorama theme is absolutely stunning! Thanks for sharing it.

            Couple of questions.

            1. I would love to have your game logo art for each system so that the @meleu launching art generator would pull those instead of the blank one.

            2. How’s the update coming along? I Can’t Wait!

            Cheers

                Thanks for the nice comments, i'm still working on some updates for it, but i'm remaking the whole thing. I will be doing a 4:3 version, but some thing will need to be adapted, because i'm making some illustrations for arcades, collections and hack systems and manga covers for japanese systems. these will need to be rescaled for it to work.
                I've also made a new intro (got tired of the old Marvel one, too comic book and less games). Now i don't need to drive to other city to work, i have some more time to work on it

                            @lipebello I'm stunned by the breathtaking art that you're making when you are "bored" of another … you're just too talented to be true. 😮

                              @Clyde Lol. i've made about a 100 versions of it and i was never happy with texture, lightings, transparencies, etc. Then my brother suggested that i should do in 2d. They look really cooler now

                                  @lipebello For what it's worth, I always use your original overlays no matter what theme I use! I hold your artistic style in high regards.
