I like it, I get the overall look you were going for, though I'll probably round off the corners of the boxes for the systems I'll be using.

It's a really nice theme though.

The Video/Detailed view is done

@lilbud
Is that a mix image or am I looking at the video view?

[lilbud]

@Syhles Video view. if you want to be technical, this is actually Video/Detailed

@lilbud
Lol, sorry I just saw the Chrono Trigger marquee and was lost for a second.

This will be the first, and probably last, theme I create using @mattrixk's ES Toolkit for Windows.

Aww, why is that? Anything I can do to make it better?

Edit: words are hard.

I like the detailed, video view. But the system view is not what I expected. I thought it would be full-screen with the system name in the middle and the boxes at the top. Should have probably seen it coming tho, since you made all the icons in the first place.

@AlexMurphy antartic adventure is wierd. I first played it on an MSX a few years ago when someone chucked one my way. I dont understand why the game goes through seemingly random countries that have little to nothing to do with the antartic! it is fun to dodge the seal though

[lilbud]

@mattrixk no no no, there is nothing wrong with it, it has saved my sanity. But this is probably the last theme I do.

@lilbud
That's slightly disappointing but I appreciate all you've done so far and hope you do more in the future.

[AlexMurphy]

@lilbud Yeah, yeah... You'll be back. You'll get an idea and won't be able to stop yourself.

@AlexMurphy
Crossing my fingers for a psp/ps3 style theme.

[lilbud]

@Syhles I'm still going to make stuff for retropie, like splashscreens, but making a theme is very time consuming, at least a whole week. Besides, there is not much to be done with ES at this point. I think development has reached it's end on ES.

@lilbud
It's had fairly good development over the last six months, I'm not going to say that added a bunch of the things I've been wanting but they've adding stuff, we can sort games now and style the carousel.

[lilbud]

@AlexMurphy I probably will be back, but no more themes like this one, with 60 custom icons.

@Syhles A PS3 theme would probably be impossible, at least in ES. But it could definitely be done in @fluffypillow's Pegasus front end. Which I will take a stab at theme creation

Also, ES had made a ton of improvements since when I started with retropie 2.6, but, what else could be done that you want to see?

[AlexMurphy]

@lilbud No problem, totally understand but keep busy! Idle hand are the devil's playground!

Hah, the Indent theme took me about 4 months to make.

[AlexMurphy]

@mattrixk Yeah... I laughed at that too! You obviously don't have the work ethic of young people these days.

@AlexMurphy I'm one of those young people.
