      Hi everyone. Bought my first Raspberry Pi a week ago, and I'm not one to fiddle around with code or build anything or anything like that (however, I have always been interested in this, and have tried to educated myself on this topic behind the scenes. I'm a graphic designer and animator by trade, so this seemed like a natural progression for me, as the ability to customise something like this is so inviting and exciting).

      ...Anyway, just wanted to say thank you to you all! As this forum was my one-stop-shop for setting the RetroPie system up on the Pi. I now not only have a fully functioning RetroPie system, but through this forum.. I have also managed to successfully install menu background music, run experimental / optional packages, add themes via Cyberduck, custom-made splash screen videos, screensavers, overlays and learn bits of binary along the way, enabling me to play around with things and see what different bits of code do (all, give or take a few hiccups, without any problems!)

      Thanks to everyone for your help :) Really appreciate all the content you've all put together on this website.

      I'll try and get some content together myself, whether that's overlays, themes, splash videos, etc.. As and when I do, I'll keep you all updated.
