      @mitu said in Go do I get permission to edit photos on a es theme ?:

      It actually works without quitting ES.

      Good to know - thanks!

          @bigbellyman What's the name of the folder you created in $HOME/.emulationstation/themes with the new theme ? The name of the folder is used by EmulationStation as the theme name.

              @bigbellyman This looks ok - aren't you able to choose the theme from the EmulationStation list of themes ?

                  @bigbellyman Does your theme folder contains all the files from the original theme - including the theme.xml file ?

                        @bigbellyman worked like a dream . I approached it slightly different. Copied the theme I wanted to edit to my pc and edited it all there and then copied it over no problems.
