      @mattrixk Thanks! Yeah, I started the project almost a year ago. I went through several iterations to get it to where I now have a workflow that doesn't take me forever for each system.

        @Arcanthur Nice. I used that have a somewhat decent setup with testing area and github, a place for completed themes and place for WIP themes...

        I've gone through a couple of computers/motherboards/whatevers since then, and now everything's a mess. I can't find any of the original files for many of the things I was working on. I need to basically do a full refresh, get everything sorted again, but it's a big job.

        My ES themes: MetaPixel | Spare | Io | Indent

              Damn @Arcanthur ... The BEST theme ever made, looks AMAZING, congrats, great work !!! (tested on Retropie, Batocera and Recalbox, in this last two systems with some minor modifications and all OK), some ideas.

              Can you make a generic bezel based on this theme? (I have a Sony Trinitron bezel for all systems, but with a bezel based on this theme, the entire system will more visually consistent), and a theme based ES loading screen and game loading screen will be excellent too!

              I miss Atari 8-bit and MSX computer systems, but i understand that is work in progress.

                I will have to use this on my new pi4 build. Got it in one of those new nespi4 cases. Great work!

                  I know that is a WIP, but I miss some iconic vintage microcomputer systems: Atari 8-bit and MSX (1 and 2)

                    Love this, thanks for all the time you spent getting it to us. Your attention to detail is AMAZING.

                    As for development, i would like to suggest/request support for custom collections, and also for "Daphne".

                      @claudiomet Thanks!, I'll be working on those things (bezels and loading screens) after the theme is done.

                              @GeekOB Hey, yeah I did. I decided to take those systems in a different direction. I appreciate your work and offer though! :)

                                          I really need this theme in my life! It is so awesome and exactly what I was browsing for. But I do no see it in the ES theme repository options and the readme on the Github does not seem to explain how to install it, I'm new to retropie... but I am in love with this theme looking at the pictures, please, how do I install this masterpiece?

                                            @90sNostalgia Download the theme using the Code button from the Github repository, as a .zip file, then unpack it and place the result in \\retropie\configs\all\emulationstation\themes. If the folder mentioned (themes) doesn't exist, create it first, the copy the unzipped folder to it. You can then choose this theme from EmulationStation's menu.
