      Hey @ruckage Your theme is amazing! Thank you!

      @ruckage said in Cardboard Mini NES + Nes mini and Famicom mini themes:

      Here is the same layout with 'published by' and 'developed by' moved beneath the boxart. To me it looks unbalanced so I prefer it with that information above the boxart.

          Okay, I'm confused now as to what people actually prefer. I personally like the information at the top as visually it looks more balanced to me but I will let you all decide.

          If everyone interested could make a post stating either A or B as your preference from the image below that would be great.

                          Good suggestion Stuart, can't believe I hadn't tried that (facepalm) though as a I like symmetry I would probably do the same on the other side as well. So how about this:

                            @ruckage I think we have a winner.

                            Anyways make it however you like, it's your theme and if someone doesn't like it they have the XML and can make it what they want it to be. Can't please everyone ;)

                            Fantastic theme all around.

                                I like the new look symmetry is important, but personally on the right metadata box I'd flip it, (rating, player etc.) at the bottom, genre at the top. Also this is my personal opinion, I'd use the theme regardless.

                                      I'd agree with this.

                                        Oops, forgot to label the mystery box but that seems to be the most popular. Here's one last change then as requested, I've swapped 'rating/played/players' with 'genre'.

                                          Im glad you like my mock-up AB, just after i realised that, it would look better if the ratings was balanced out on the right box , but obviously you had the same idea as me lol,

                                          "C" is my favorite, if i was you i would just go ahead and make those changes and then release the next version :)
