        @FlyingTomahawk Ah that's a shame. I take it a pull-request is waiting to be merged?

          Pull request? Not that I know of. I'm all new to this github stuff so not sure how things work. I managed to upload and update files on my github and that's it.
          You can install the theme if you look a post #18 and #19 of this topic.
          That is how I have the theme currently installed on my RPi. I can then access the files via network connection on my PC and transfer/update files.

            Apologies @herb_fargus it's been so long since I did this for my theme, but does @FlyingTomahawk need to submit a pull-request (and if so, to which repo) in order to get this theme installable via RetroPie?

                Questions:

                1. Any plan to add more systems (like scummvm, dos,...), or are you finished with systems?
                2. Have you an template to create the left,center and right screens? Is it possible to upload, when you have it?

                  Thank you for choosing my theme and thank you for the kind words in your previous post.
                  I personally am finished with adding new systems but if someone has a request to add certain new systems I can certainly do that.
                  Tell me exactly what you would like to have and I see if I can get it done as soon as possible.

                  You should have a folder called _screenshot layouts there inside you should have the psd files for the screenshots.

                    Great, i found the layouts, thanks again.
                    For me personaly scummvm and pc (dos) were great.
                    Now im looking to integrate the "favorites", because im not only on retropie ;-)

                    When you have not the time for creating the systems, no problem, i can look and create myself.
                    Im really happy with this Incredibly beautiful theme, thank you again for share.

                      Have you fixed your Problem with the "favorite"?

                      @FlyingTomahawk
                      I have done the ScummVM system (first step for me was in german).
                      Would you have it when i made an english translate (or you translate it)?

                        Thank you. I take it as it is.
                        Deutsch ist kein Problem für mich.
                        You can either share a download link here or you can find my email address inside the futura.xml file.

                          Super, dann lasse ich die Infos so stehen :)

                          here is the link

                          futura 20px scummvm
                          Tell me, when something is wrong, i cant test the system here at the moment.
                          When inside the folder something like "._" you can delete them. Its because im on Mac OS X

                          The MS-Dos system i have finished, but i made fault, emulationstation is loading and loading and loading and didnt start. When its corrected i send you the link.

                            Link to PC (MS-Dos) for testing.
                            On portable Emulationstation on Windows it seems ok.
                            I cant test on Retropie for now.

                            MS-Dos

                              Thank you for your efforts. I will download both tonight and test them on Windows and RPi.

                                No problem.
                                Its only fair if i can give something back.
                                I hope it is good enough :)

                                For users with "favorites"...
                                I have done this also.
                                A little modification in the futura.xml is needed.

                                But you must decide. I love to see this theme also on other systems. (i hope it is allow to write this)

                                  If you don't mind I would like to have a look at your futura.xml file.
                                  If you like my theme wait until you see the Newgen theme by ruckage. I based this on his theme which was never released...but he is back and will hopefully continue where he left off.

                                    Ah yes, i know the Newgen Theme. I take a look for this theme long time ago.

                                    Dont laugh when you look into the xml file :-)

                                    futura

                                    I have done the "for me simplest way" (example, the positions).
                                    It is not my finished Version, i think i finished up the next days.

                                    Here you can see the not finished version:

                                    EDIT: Deleted the Screenshots

                                      Interesting....that favorites stuff is this in the Kids EmulationStation version?
                                      And I see that you use numbers like 100.58, are you using those to hide them?
                                      If yes, then you might want to use

                                      <pos>1 1</pos>
                                      <size>0.01 0.01</size>				
                                      

                                      ...but that is up to you.
                                      You said should use this in other systems? What systems do you mean?

                                        yes, to hide them.
                                        Thank you for the right pos and size numbers.

                                        Actualy i made this theme for recalbox. And there are the favorites default.

                                          Sieht sehr gut aus. Auch gut zu sehen dass die Umlaute mit dem Font kompatibel sind.
                                          I am not familiar with Recalbox. I see you used the Universal XML Scraper. My theme looks similar to yours I also put the image larger on top and bottom I have the metadata without description.
                                          Please go ahead and use/change/install/share the theme when and where ever you like.

                                            Die Umlaute in der Beschreibung haben aber nicht funktioniert. Das muß ich erneut testen und korrigieren.

                                            Thank you for your permission.
                                            When i can do something, let me know.
