      Hi, glad you like the theme. You did a good job on those icons, they match my style well.

      I really want to complete the theme on my own though as I've done so much of it already and want it to be all my own work, I hope you understand. I think your icons look really good but as @lilbud says I'm just stubborn :).

      You can of course keep making more icons if you like, people may like alternatives to use. You should also have a go at making a theme yourself though, you obviously have a talent for drawing and more themes are always welcome here.

      For those interested, my current list of systems that I'm working on is in the first post of this threrad but I'll paste it below as well. Sorry for the lack of new systems lately, I've been busy with other things but they will be added soon, along with collections/favourites and a default system. Once all that is done I think I would consider the theme more or less complete as it would cover most systems people would want.

      I'll make an effort to get at least a few new systems added this week (probably 32x, Amiga, Dosbox, and Dreamacast as they are most often requested), along with the default theme so then at least there won't be any blank spaces for missing systems.

      Current todo list:

      Amiga
      Amstrad CPC
      Atari ST
      DosBox
      Dreamcast
      Game & watch
      Kodi
      Love
      MSX
      MSX2
      pc-engine cd
      ScummVM
      Sega 32x
      Steam
      Supergrafx
      TG16 cd

          You can find them here: https://github.com/ruckage/nes-mini-theme-launch-images-for-retropie, I also have a separate thread for them.

          To make things easier still @meleu has added them to rpie-art so you can install them via the raspberry pi.

              @ruckage I might be doing a new youtube video soon, would it be ok if my Pi Zero would use your theme?

                  As I said I've got a list of systems I'm working on which I posted, Dreamcast is one of them and will probably be released this week (I even mentioned it in my post).

                    If you really want to draw some icons then at least pick systems that aren't on my list or that had various designs as I will be drawing all the items on my todo list. As I've said to several people I really want to complete this myself.

                    e.g, for alternatives some console had various later designs megadrives 2, snes mini, etc. at least then you won't be doing the same as I am.

                            I've made icons for the next 6 systems that I will be working on this week (MSX, MSX2, Amiga, 32x, Dreamcast, and PC-Engine CD).

                                  @ruckage I just want to say thank you! I was having trouble getting your theme up and running, and finally found your perfect instruction to update emulationstation (not just retropie) from source. That did the trick!

                                  I was wondering if there is a streamline way of swapping out the image of the SNES with the North American image you made. I just swapped the two image file names with each other within the themes folder to trick the system. It works, but I feel like I might be doing it the dumb way... haha

                                  Anyway, thanks again! Your theme is perfect!

                                    Ah, wanted to ask if supergrafx was supported but just saw your previous post.

                                    I'll camly wait till your work is done.

                                    And I can understand that you want to do your own stuff. This is your theme.
                                    I did a hyperspin default mame theme few years ago (hypermamu), with custom made wheel images, and didn't really liked the fact that people wanted to create their own images cause they did'nt reach the level of quality of my original theme.

                                    Cheers.

                                        Hey ruck, hate to be the type that says "hey can you add x system" since you have already done so much work, but do you think you could add Love to your to do list, to add eventually?

                                        This system here https://github.com/RetroPie/RetroPie-Setup/wiki/Love

                                        I recently added the system/emulator because it comes with one of my favorite games installed, Mari0 (it's co op mario bros but with portals because why not) thinking it was a "port". But it seems it is just it's own system.

                                        I'd happily donate another slab to your beerfund if it were to pop up on your to do list since I don't think I could replicate your particular art style haha.

                                          Done, I hadn't heard of that before - sounds interesting, it's basically a game creation system by the sounds of it.
