      Can someone please tell me where the images are saved for each emulator in the Emulationstation main menu on the Retropie image? I can't seem to locate them anywhere in the file structure. This is a new build from the Retropie website. Thank you.

        EDIT: actually, if you're looking for the system images, these are theme specific. They are part of each theme, which are stored in /etc/emulationstation/themes.

          @mitu Thank you Mitu. All I see in these folders is theme.xml and an art folder with .svg files. No image files.
