      Hello Dudes, I've started a new theme inspired in old soviet propaganda. Currently i only have a few hours a week to work on it, but i'll be doing it because i'm having a lot of fun drawing it.
      Hope you like it.

          Great! Like always, a 4:3 version would be nice. 😊

          The theme reminds me of this:

                        Soviet you say ? @lipebello - maybe you can use some Dendy artwork on the NES system to keep it in line with the theme (NOTE: I know the Dendy didn't appear until the '90s, so it's not theoretically from the soviet period).

                            @mitu lol, didn't knew about that. In the 80s we had a bunch of 2600 and NES clones too, because of our dictatorship period.

                                  @jrochagouveia i think i'm gonna bring the red background back and use the posters on the carousel. :)

                                    @lipebello I don't know, I like both of them. The second design has a better contrast, the first one drowns a bit in all the red. :)

                                    That said, I like both the wheel of the first design and the horizontal carousel of the second.

                                    Maybe you could make two versions? :D (or four, wheel and carousel with either red or dark background)

                                      @Clyde Yup, i'll make and use the logos anyway. It's just a matter of making 2 different main theme.xml files.

                                          @jrochagouveia - It's one of my favorites too! i'll definitely will make a shirt of it.

                                            @lipebello Yep, after seeing both of them, I definitely like the dark background more. 😊

                                            That said, could you try a colour that is in the middle between the light and the dark version? Though I like the dark version more, it admittedly looses a bit much of the red.

                                            Just a suggestion, feel free to ignore it. 😇
