      Success! Removing all those strange <image/> entries fixed the static screenshot not showing. Only buggy thing now is "why did it do that in the first place?" That, and having 2 identical images, but that can't be fixed (yet). Thanks for calling me out like that to check the xml. :)

        @hansolo77 yes, you have correctly identified the problem. Once you remove the extra image line, it should work. The image showing twice will in video view is correct, nothing i can do about that until more images can be added to the theme, and ES has to be modified for that to happen.

        EDIT: beat me to the post - nice work

          @meleu do you have a different image in mind? It needs to be one he is leaning forward or coming out of the screen - a lot of the good ones i like he leans back.

              I am going to put both of these guys in the art folder so users can assign whichever they want, but what mega man should i set as default for the Mega Man system?

              I prefer the 2nd Mega Man, I prefer the art style used as it more closely resembles the way he looks in the games. Also it really looks like he is pushing out of the page.

                Yes. This one:

                mm

                It's based on the title screen of the very first version of the game (it's named Rockman in Japan):

                  How about this one? I am on the fence a bit. I like this one more than option 2 above, but option 1 is growing on me.......Regardless this will be included in the update, so users can go in an choose which character to use.

                  New Option 3

                      @TMNTturtlguy option 3 is surely the one I'll choose when using your theme! ;-)

                      Thanks for your nice work man!

                      Cheers!

                          I kind of like this one.....Made it for "Kids" system - I plan to throw a bunch of disney and sesame street games into one folder so my kids can easily find the games they like.....or more accurately, so my wife can easily find the games my kids like.

                                @serotonin major storms rolled through our area and thousands of homes actually in the hundreds of thousand homes are without power! A wasted weekend, but progress has halted until power returns!

                                          @ortsac Just got a generator running, we have been informed that our power will be out until Wednesday night. Generator is big enough to run the refrigerator a few lights, charge our cell phones and laptop batteries. No internet except for our phone though, so I probably won't be able to get theme update for some time now.
