Now, Cygnus- blue flames is an official theme!!!
Thanks
Back from vacation ?
Very cool,
I have made 2 systems for the Cygnus- blue flames.
If you like it, then we should add them too.
Here you can see the pictures :

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. -
@folly
Done, now merged -
@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

Thanks. Let me know which systems you need. I have a ton that I have to finish and or plan to make plus add a bunch of missing comic screens. I got sidetracked a bit, well a lot, on some other projects and hope to get back to making these soon.
Forgive me for being brain dead, which 2000p images are you referring to?
-
@mrseven My apoligies that is probably my fault, new to these forums should have tried to use a quote. The ones I was referring to was these I noticed from an older comment. I downloaded the zip a week or 2 ago but it did not seem to be updated fully to the date. The ones from in the zip I believe were all 2000 pixel width, most the ones from newer batches I have only been able to save by right click saving them and get a 1200pw which Im assuming isn't the full res. Trying to upscale to match the majority in size results in me goofing up the shadow opacity is why I ask(prolly need to switch back to photoshop).
Managed to do some copy and paste renditions for jaguarcd, msx+, fmtowncd, cplus4, pcfx, and naomi2, will try to post them in other thread. Please forgive me for the block text and folowing list, but will post for the general cause. I don't expect you to do them all, but maybe communally we can tackle some over time.The next most benificial logos at least personally would be any of these:
zx81, easyrpg, tic80, lutro, msxturbor, amigacdtv, mugen, pico8, sc3000, vc4000, apfm1000, uzebox chailove, cgenius, acornatom, colecoadam, thomsonmo5series, segasystem32, tgexpress, thomsonto7series, amiga500, amiga1200, amiga4000, jaleco, atariportfolio, segastv, pcenginegt, beebem, dragon64, android, pygame, pinball, zeebo, squirreljme, adobeflash, apple2eOthers that are generally less needed but likely deserving:
segamodel1, segamegatech, acclaim, apple2+, mattelaquarius, segasystem1, segasystem2, segasystem16, segasysteme, segavicdual, pioneerlaseractice/megald, chihiro, chip8, cinematronics, comad, dos386, dos486, dataeast, eighting/raizing, exidy, gaelco, incredibletech, irem, kaneko, mitchell, nichibutsu, nmk, pgm, psikyo, semicom, seta, taito, technos, tecmo, tectoy, toaplan, touhou, universal, visco, videosystem, williams, palmos, nokiangage, gamewave leapfrog, segapico, segabeena, psvita, mameadvmame, mame2003, mame2003plus, mamelibretro, mame4all, mame2010, mame2015, mame2016, mess2015, mess2016,
Only other significant games collection could think of:
007, Tony Hawk, Looney Tunes, Contra, Marvel, DCI didn't go down mess systems lists as many there are clones so I'm sure there is more but mainly compared with my set of classic original style logos.
-
@algernon The link should be fixed now. I'm not sure what happened but let me know if it doesn't work for you. I added the last few recent ones that I posted to the zip file.
I'm sure in due time, a lot from your list will get done. I would like to complete all the the comics for the ones that I already made. But I have been known to get side tracked!!
-
I have done a PR for 2 systems for the Cygnus- blue flames.
- Philips P2000T
- Tandy Radio Shack MC-10 micro color computer
-
@mrseven Thank you for updating the link I got the images, appreciate it. Going to start with making some more logos this style as I fill in the blanks I have going then contribute back at least some other additional graphics for your theme to match.
-
@folly
Done
Nice RadioShack mascot 😂 -
Thanks.
I added the "Tandy Radio Shack MC-10 micro color computer" in the front-end part with the special systems with slotdevices.
I tried this system the normal way but could not load the ML(Machine Language)cas files.
I discovered that you need a ram extension to load those files.
For this system you can find nice archives with software. -
My experience with the cygnus-blue-flames theme is quite good now.
There is one thing that is bothering me though.When I use a system that is not added in the theme, you don't know which system you are using.
Also, you cannot see which game you are selecting.Perhaps we can find a simple solution to this problem.
Can you have a look at it ? -
I'll take a look on that. Thanks. I also had this issue, but my solution was to create a new system (not a good solution). Is It the same problem with other themes?
However, if you need more systems, I can create them. I will not create custom systems like Zelda, Castlevania, etc.
-
For example with carbon you will always see the system name and also you will be able to see what game is selected.
So the carbon theme will produce a normal system text if there isn't a picture.
For the game selection :
Perhaps they use different colours for the selection part.If I have some time I will also have a look.
Indeed adding a system is a solution but this always comes after you experience it, so it would be nice if we came up with a better solution, don't you agree ?

-
Good work !
I will try to add the theme.xml file asap. ;-) -
New system : cygnus blue flames Thomson MO/TO
(I forgot to add it)New edit: the Mascot is Bob Morane for people who don't know (two Tomson MO/TO title).
-
It's working perfect.
Nice solution !!!!Will have a look at that Thomson.
Edit:
I had quick peek, looking nice.
I try to add it to the animation once I can.
