Indeed it's also tandy but quite different.
Don't know exactly either what the difference is though, I have to investigate too.

On some webpages of color computer they refer to trs-80 but the software of the color-computer doesn't work on the trs-80.

Edit :
Here is everything explained :

Oh I forgot coco2 and coco3.

Coco 2 , coco 3 and Dragon 64 are now on GitHub : cygnus-blue-flames

@dteam

Thanks for adding these 👍

Looks very nice, especially the coco2 !

Btw.
There are a lot more that should be added looking at the directories.
But I don's want to overflow you with work ;-).
Perhaps I can do one or two.

I Saw that the theme for fmtmarty is called fmtowns_cd.
Can you make a duplicate of that and make a directory fmtmarty ?
Then it is also compatible with the system-driver-name.

@folly
I also changed Dragon 32 logo

I'm gonna change the name

@dteam

Ok, that's perfect.

Don't know why it was called fmtowns_cd.
Had it something to do with the Valerino scripts ?

@folly
In mame 0.233, in the hash folder FMMarty = fmtowns_cd.xml. That's why I have use this name. It fit with the Basename.
I made the change.

@dteam

Aha, I get it.

[jamrom2]

@dteam Do you have a Dragon 64 logo? I just finished a Dragon by Tano logo...

I don't know if using the Dragon 64 is the way to go. Looks like many of the games out there are NTSC, which is the Tano version.

[Folly]

@jamrom2

That's a nice logo, you made.
But is there a possibility to make it more universal for more dragon64's ?
I think you should also include the 64 part.

The trouble is more system drivers will use the RetroPie name dragon64 not only the Tano.
Do you agree ?

@jamrom2 Unfortunately, the outline of the Dragon 64 logo is not perfect on a dark background. Are you able to improve it?

The real one is like this:


Note: finally, I used the last one for the theme

[jamrom2]

@dteam sure. I'll look at it. What font did you use? Or is it pulled from a graphic?

[jamrom2]

@folly yes. Looks like we can have both! Lol.

For dragon , it's from an image. You can use WhatTheFont! webside to found a font on a picture

Seems to be Helvetica-Black or similar (maybe not for "R")

@dteam

I am trying to do the fmtowns theme.
But indeed the outlines are always an issue.

Hoping to find a fast way of cutting out the desired things so you won't see a white rough edge.
I am now trying the scissors option in gimp to cut out the computer with a smooth edge.

[DTEAM]

@folly
This one has no white edge

[Folly]

@dteam

fmtowns is ready for a PR. (when I can)
Do you like it too ?

Btw, I used a vector .svg .

[DTEAM]

@folly
Very nice!!

[Folly]

@dteam

PR is done.

[jamrom2]

@dteam
All set. Do you need them with a white background as well?
