          That's a really nice touch to the readme.
          I have to that too with my mamedev-cabon ;-)

          I have made a script for it.
          I just collect the manual made png "print screens" and then I run the script which makes the animated gif.
          I push that gif to github and then the link can be used in forum or a readme.
          Still it shows only the pictures of the ones where I have put games in.
          I want to be able to fool emulationstation so I can make screenshots of all systems that are in a specific theme.

          Btw.
          This is a new logo for coleco :
          https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/31007/reworked-coleco-vision-logo-for-theme-use
          Perhaps it's usable somehow.

            I fooled emulationstation by generating a dummy es_systems.cfg with inside the extensions .png and .svg.
            So it wil find the .png and .svg an think that they are games.

            I renamed my roms directory and placed all theme directories in a new roms directory and removed only the xml files as they conflict.

            The animated gif should now contain all systems.
            If you don't see it directly then you have to wipe the cache in the browser,
            then you will be able see the updated gif.

              I saw this on GitHub. I used your file extension to automatically change the gif on my readme file. Thank you so much. Really good work. I never tire of watching the animation.

              Finally, I think my theme is not that bad. I'm not sure if it's good enough for the official Retropie, but in the end I think it's one of the most complete themes available (by the number of systems).

                Perhaps we are able to commit this into the original esthemes.sh.
                Or you could just ask mitu if he is willing to add our themes.

                  Hi mitu, are you willing to add my theme to the official Retropie themes list? It contains 168 systems for Retropie. It's a branch of the original cygnus.
                  Here's the link on GitHub.

                  cygnus blue flames

                  MegaDuck
                  Konamih

                    You'll need to submit a pull request to the RetroPie-Setup repository and add your theme - see for instance this one. If it's too complicated, I can submit it for you.

                        As I understand it, I write a request in "issues" like lipebello did and you will close it whether you agree or not. Is it correct?

                          @dteam No, an issue is not a 'pull request'.
                          You need to fork the RetroPie-Setup repository to your account, create a branch in your fork, modify the esthemes.sh file (see the example I gave you earlier) and save the modification, then Github will ask you if you want to create a PR (pull request) for the original repository (retropie/RetroPie-Setup).

                            I think I have done it now. See # 3378. Is it good ?

                                  Very cool,
                                  I have made 2 systems for the Cygnus- blue flames.
                                  If you like it, then we should add them too.

                                      Yes, sure. I’m open to add more systems and get suggestions

                                        I made a fork of the repository.

                                        In time I will do a pull request.
                                        This is also good exercise for us.

                                            @mrseven Would you mind sending another link to the 2000p images if you have them? Link goes 404 for me. These logos are very great, I like how you most often incorporate a small subtle part of the official logo. Hope to contribute some to forum when I can. I made a list of some other consoles without a comic style logo if you would like it. Cheers! Keep up the good work
