I think the grid view is nice if you can display the game case covers or the cartridges. In this case, screenshots, i like the original NeoGeo theme style. Large screenshot with marquee top-right.
I agree, the gridview shown would actually work better with title screen images rather than gameplay. I believe @A12C4 is planning to add video support at a later date so a highlighted tile would display a video preview which would be pretty cool I think.
You might like this alternate view I've been working on - I've kind of mimicked the look of the marquees on 4 slot MVS machines for a bit of nostalgia (not an exact visual copy but the same idea). It obviously needs different preview images so I've made a set of marquees for both Neogeo and Capcom that have been modified to display correctly. On my machine I'll have both the screenshots and mini-marquee images in different folders and I can just change the folder name to switch between them.

Thanks, and those shots aren't mockups - it's actually running on ES (only in windows though - I still need to test it on the pi as I don't know how much of a performance impact gridview has yet).

I've been experimenting with a different theme for my NeoGeo, this time inspired by the menus on the actual NeoGeo X. I'd actually planned something similar a long while ago but it's only now possible since grid view has been added to ES. The thumbnails will have to be custom made for this theme because of the gloss effect and reflection but I can easily make them as I can batch process the images.
I've not completely finished yet but here is my current mock-up.

@ruckage love the theme, looks fantastic.
-
@ruckage Looks good but it seems a little gaudy IMHO.

All themes are awesome to everybody's personal taste, but I don't understand why everybody is all hyped up on grid view ? You have the screenshot of the game title, but the actual screenshot of the game + box art together speaks volumes. No disrespect to any creator in any way at all. You folks keep us motivated. Grid view has too much of an NES or SNES theme to it.

@bytethis , the original NeoGeo X just had the view similar to what Ruckage has just made with his theme.
I do like both versions.
