Hello friends from the RetroPie forums could you help me lo add a Wonderswan and Wonderswan color pages for the simple big art theme? sincerely I love it and it is my favorite ES theme, the only console I have wich is not themed is the Wonderswan color and really it breaks the entere experience but sadly I am not a graphical designer and because it I can not make the artwork nor keep the same uniforn style of the theme, could you help me?

@sergioad i saw you contacted RobertyBob as he's hosting the theme you could always contact the creator: http://ewzzy.com
Or you could look up some tutorials on YouTube with gimp or inkscape ;) the SVGs are available for the theme logos in the simple theme repo shouldn't be too much trouble to monochrome then and mash up with a solid coloured background.

@herb_fargus thank you very much, I allready contacted him

Looks like Wonderswan is already included. It also has logo art for Wonderswan color. Should be pretty easy to add it as a separate theme. I'm looking into it.

Ok, he already had Wonderswan color but it was in the regular Wonderswan folder. So I fixed that and took Carbon's Wonderswan logo and used it for Wonderswan and changed the BG color.

@Rookervik Thank you very much friend how can rto apply it?
-
Anyeay @Rookervik I think I will contact the repo mantainer to implement it for everybody, thank you very much friend

For me minilumi simplebigart and pixel are my trinity of must have Emulation station themes and two of them are complete so before the patch is implemented my 3 favorite must have ES themes will be complete and I will stop bothering you friends, my apologies

@sergioad Simplebigart is missing a LOT of systems. It would take quite some time to make backgrounds for them all.

@Rookervik the same with nbba, another excelent theme wich I also like so much but it is even more incomplete 😔
Seriously, the themers should keep in touch with the RetroPie project and update their themes if they can
-
@sergioad Themes are a lot of work. And with RetroPie constantly picking up new features and consoles, it's extremely hard to stay on top. That's 80+ folders and "systems" to create. I think most themers only have the time to do their favorite consoles. And I don't blame them. That's SO much art to create, for free.

@Rookervik well, that is true, you have a really good and valid point there; pardon me 😁
