          @HurricaneFan Yes it works for me. But that's my folder with my packs... not the marquees.

          Something it's wrong there.

                      I will be watching the progress of this theme, looks nice and I am interested on it

                      BTW: the Wonderswan cartriges are not so rare so you will have tons of examples for this theme

                      Finaly if you can could you incorporate an auditive feedback (a sound) for the game list Scrolling into your theme or in a separate version of it? You could use the sounds of simplebigart or ask Rookervik if you can use the sounds of the new carbon theme

                        @sergioad Theme already have sounds for gamelist scrolling and system change, if you take a look at the videos at first post you can notice that, so I don't understand your request.

                        About wonderswan... I just finished a few systems yesterday, a new redesign for game gear with more quality, finished Atary linx except for system view image (there is no zoid image for that one), and I did all 3D Boxes for Neo Geo Pocket romset. Today just finished atari 5200, and now I'm with neo geo pocket and neo geo pocket color.

                        I also added a few systems days ago, I don't remember what are now, and fixed some logos on basic and detailed view, fixed wrong marquee size for fba, and I'm modifing empty 3D boxes for all systems and improving some shadows in some systems.

                        So wonderswan when I have a little more time, unfortunately a day only have 24 hours.

                            Great work so far, but I suggest you to download one of the 128gb Retropie images, they already have every marquee, video and boxart in there. Some boxarts are not in 3D but anyway, that would save you a lot of time and hassle. You don't have to re-invent the wheel, though.

                              @donkeykong Most of retropie images out there are incomplete, if no all, and have 2D images instead of 3D boxes, If you see that one system has all images or boxes, it's just because they removed the roms without art and the romset it's incomplete, so no, no one has every image like you say.

                              Also you seen my theme? 2D boxes are not for my theme.

                              If I make some missing 3D boxes it's just because really doen't exist, you can't download it from screenscraper, emumovies or anything else.

                                @Nismo That's true I haven't checked if the romsets are complete, maybe they just removed roms without proper artwork, so that it looks complete. I just downloaded a 200gb image and if there is something you can't find online, maybe it's inside that image because someone else took the effort to create some artwork but hasn't published it to a scraper website. I would be glad to support you in anyway.

                                    @donkeykong Can be possible, but unfortunately, usually the images outside are from people who want to make money with the work of other people or communities, and doesn't put effort on details or contribute , just make it all the thing work and go for money (and sometimes things doesn't work anyway).

                                    And of course I don't want to download 125 gb images just for try if i'm lucky to find a few missed images.

                                    If you want to help, you can see what is missing in the media packs looking inside "missing" text for a system.

                                    Regards.

                                      @Nismo I uploaded some artwork at google drive https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/0B-okePBdELOaRjJmeldvX2E5Nzg?usp=sharing there are some images you are missing from atari2600 and I uploaded folders you are currently missing from your media packs. Uploading wonderswan and wonderswan color atm, hope it's useful for you. Will upload more upon request.

                                        @donkeykong Thanks, I think I have that ones, just I don't have time to make them in the same 3d boxes format and size yet. Are the missing images inside the folder "boxes" or not only the missing ones?

                                          @Nismo I just uploaded the whole atari2600 folder I extracted from that 200gb image. The images are inside the boxart folder.
                                          Edit: Wonderswan upload done.

                                            @donkeykong Thanks, maybe I can find some missing images there. As I told you, if you take a look, there are a lot of mixed images, 2d, 3d and different sizes, that things always happens with the retropie images outside, but don't worry, if I find some missing images for the games there, I can make new 3d boxes from the ones you uploaded.

                                            When I make missing 3d boxes I usually do a search for images in google and try find the one with highest quality, but I'm sure your upload would be useful.

                                            At this moment I'm focused in theme because I want to upload a new version with the fixes and new systems very soon, I hope to upload it tomorrow.
