      @Rookervik any objections if I take a couple of your splash screens and customise them for my machine and to include my name? I don't want to be accused of plagiarizing someone elses work so though best to ask permission.

        @Hyruleslink Hey, I don't mind doing it. I did originally do the vector RetroPieX using the intro scene from the SNES MegaManX but the text didn't fit well so I stole the logo from Rockman. So both of you are right. Looking at this zoomed-in MegaMan text makes me think... man that's some sexy bevels. :D It'll be fun to try to make RetroPie look good in the same style.

              @joesnow81 Haha, now I remember. When I was making the Mega Man X HD wallpaper and video intro, I remember trying to convert RetroPie to this font. It looked horrible. Hahahaha. This is my 3rd attempt at getting it right. It's just a mess. :D Not even sure if I remember how to post an image.

                Could you do a Street fighter III: Third Strike poster. Not forcing you to do it, just asking.

                Spread it

                  @Luddo183 I can try. I failed Mega Man X several times. The Mega Man font and the RetroPie text just can't seem to mix without it looking really weird.

                    @Rookervik Ah, SFIII3 isn't even really pixel art. Could upscale it to HD.

                        @Luddo183 Haha, no worries. This thread is kind of a "Hey Rook, I suggest..." Been doing it for years. I enjoy it. :D

                            @joesnow81 Might be making some progress if I take some creative misdirection in the font.

                                Messed up the color on the P. Fixed it here. Might need to change the gradient on the bottom text. Harder with GraphicsGale than with Photoshop.

                                  @rookervik Hey Rook! It's been awhile since I've been on these forums. Been tweaking my build here and there optimizing boxart and other QOL improvements. That Mega Man X load screen looks awesome man! You really have some amazing skill for converting these title screens! Is it possible to get the full sized file for it?
