          agreed, "Collections" seems the most tidy

                Updated all recent themes compatible to it, they do accept the collection option but once i set up any of them it show only the text, no icons at all... i already updated retro pie or emulation station unless i did it wrong...

                  Im trying to get my theme working, but having no luck. I made the folder called it custom-collections, added the xml, logos etc. and its acting like its not there. Is there something special in the xml i have to add?
                  Also this version messes up my custom order of systems. Is this intentional or a bug?

                    @lostless I have no clue what your first question about your theme is. The second part, in the start menu turn of the sort option for collections.

                      @tmntturtlguy basically I'm saying i added the custom collections folder to my theme, but emulation station is acting as if does not exist. It's showing the custom collections, but its not themed. Don't get why.

                            @lostless just to confirm you're using the test build that supports custom collections?

                            If so, do let us know if it works in the thread. As I mentioned, the more people use it, test it, and provide feedback, the faster this will be accepted into the main ES.

                            Thanks.

                              @pjft Yes it's working now. I don't know what I did to get it to work. All I didn't was delete my theme and reinstall it. Other themes were working fine.
                              I did experience one bug, is after quitting a game, emulation station just came back to a black screen. I've experienced this once before on an older version of emulation station. So I don't know if it's a bug in ES in general or this version.

                                @lostless I'd reduce VRAM to 80 or so for those kinds of problems.

                                Unless you're already at 80.

                                  @pjft I think I am at 80. I double check when I get home.

                                      Hi all.

                                      The ability to create custom collections is now available from within ES. I changed the name to "collections" though it won't have much impact as I opted not to sorry that one in the end within the remaining systems. So either name works.

                                      Folder name stays the same: custom-collections .

                                      Thanks all for creating and updating your themes to support this feature - I'm sure the community will benefit from all of them!

                                      Best.
