New ES Feature: Random Collection - Testers and Theme makers needed

@pjft said in New ES Feature: Random Collection - Testers and Theme makers needed:

@mitu is there a process to get a theme added to esthemes? Couldn't find much in the Themes docs.

Yes, it's a PR to add a line to the esthemes module, like this.

In this case though, @ruckage's theme readme asks for not redistributing modifications of their theme, so I'll ty to respect that and maybe not approve any forks to be included. However, if you can add it just as a patch/diff to the existing theme, (like this), then I'm ok with it.

EDIT: fixed the PR example link.

@mitu of course! Thanks for the context and guidance.

@pjft @mitu Thank you both! Anything needed from me for this?

mitu

@mrmadcatz for now, can you post a link to https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/8391 or (again) the image, just for reference ? Thank you.

Here is the reply on the post as requested by mitu.

I submitted a PR for my fork to ruckage's upstream repo, but doubt I'll hear back. Otherwise, here are the rest of the images I added. I created, copied and renamed background files in each necessary directory to go along with these:

background/bg_tron/auto-random.png

background/bg_tron_blur/auto-random.png

background/bg_tron_blur_usa/auto-random.png

background/bg_tron_usa/auto-random.png

background/blurred_shots/auto-random.png

background/nes_mini/auto-random.png

@mrmadcatz Cool - thank you! These look great :)

@mitu @pjft Sorry to have posted these so many times, but this is the last update (I felt I could get the icons even closer to the style of ruckage's originals, and believe that I have). I will update the other thread as well. Here are ALL of the assets I've adjusted for the ruckage/es-theme-snesn-mini theme for RetroPie. This includes backgrounds, labels and icons for the auto-random list that goes with all the different configurations of this theme that are available by editing config.xml that comes with the theme. They are as follows:

Icons
es-theme-snes-mini/art/icons and es-theme-snes-mini/art/icons_usa

es-theme-snes-mini/art/nes_icons and es-theme-snes-mini/art/nes_icons_usa

Logos
es-theme-snes-mini/art/logos and es-theme-snes-mini/art/logos_usa

Backgrounds
es-theme-snes-mini/background/bg_tron/auto-random.png

es-theme-snes-mini/background/bg_tron_blur/auto-random.png

es-theme-snes-mini/background/bg_tron_blur_usa/auto-random.png

es-theme-snes-mini/background/bg_tron_usa/auto-random.png

es-theme-snes-mini/background/blurred_shots/auto-random.png

es-theme-snes-mini/background/nes_mini/auto-random.png
