Rook's Collection O' Splash Screens

@kverreth What the heck are you talking about? LOL

@kverreth

Should be nothing wrong with the link. Dropbox is working on making the 'Public' folder no longer public anymore. So it's possible a lot of my links will stop working. I updated the link with a re-copy of the address. Can't tell if it's the same exact link. Anyway... try right-clicking and download to see if that helps.

Here's a boot splash screen of Gradius III for Super Nintendo. Also included a video of the process for those interested.

@Rookervik this is a really cool splashscreen! I love it!

@lilbud Huh? LOL

These are amazing! I love the Defender one you did, you said you did it in Adobe Illustrator? Do you still have the .ai file? If so, could I please get it from you? I would love to have this on as my marquee sign for the bartop arcade I just built.

[Rookervik]

@GameOfSoup Looks like I only used Illustrator for the RetroPie outline. The rest was done in Photoshop. I remember creating a brush to do the stars. So, sadly, I do not have the original vector, it was just a quick method to get the shape to send to Photoshop.

WOW! Awesome set!
I am so using the "Winners Don't Do Drugs" one!

[GameOfSoup]

@Rookervik Thanks for the quick reply, and no problem. I totally understand. Ill take what you have uploaded and see if I can make it work. Thanks again!

[Rookervik]

@GameOfSoup If you're wanting to print it out large, I can remake it. I really should start saving all my art. But I have trouble finding things so I often just don't bother saving. Haha.

@Rookervik It seems that I can't download the Link to the Past Splash Screen. It's giving me a 404 :(

[meleu]

@metalfuzzybunny are you talking about this one?

All the splashscreens are available here: https://github.com/HerbFargus/retropie-splashscreens-extra

And you can easily install them via RetroPie-Setup. ;-)

[metalfuzzybunny]

@meleu but that's not the animated one, right? I want the mp4

[herb_fargus]

@metalfuzzybunny so find the YouTube video and download that

[Rookervik]

Dropbox has changed the way that they allow access to users' shared content. I will have to read up on the changes and update links to the video splash screens. When I have some more days off I will work on this. Sorry for the inconvenience.

[Rookervik]

Ok, I found that I already have a repository for the splash videos, I just had not uploaded them because of my slow connection. I took the time to upload them and they can be downloaded from: https://github.com/ehettervik/retropie-splash-videos

@Rookervik the turtle one with the pirate jig is my favourite

[Rookervik]

@herb_fargus Haha, that's not even mine. I just made it for Omnija.
