      @Rookervik hey I used workbench for a while when I was playing around with the themes... I use one of the pixel themes now... are there any I should try?

      N64 emulation is the next step :)

              @dankcushions Totally not alone. Meta data can really, REALLY, slow the Raspberry Pi's boot time. Your gamelist goes from 5 lines per game to over 11. That really increases what ES has to load.

              So yeah, screw meta data. Screenshot is fine. :D

                    @CodeDrawer Hahaha. The book isn't set up to match the original pixel theme. So the logo, gamelist and screenshot won't line up inside the book. I was thinking about getting a nice layout and just releasing skins for Pixel. Then people could pick whichever background they wanted.

                            Is Pixel 2 only for 16:9 formats?
                            I prefer #5 :)

                                I seem to really like a dark coal grey top bar. Then a bar you can change colors on for each system.

                                  I think this is my favorite out of all of the mock-ups so far.

                                      @cafarellidigital Heh, one more would fill it out better. I didn't even count. Just mocking things up. :D

                                        Also looking closer at that new mock-up the box that I'm assuming to be the description box should extend as far as the boxes above it. Still I understand that this a mock-up.

                                        I look forward to more mock-ups!

                                          @Syhles Yeah, let's not nit-pick dumps that will most probably never pass mock-up phase. We can tear it apart when I choose a theme to go with.
