I cannot understand any instructions
Have you checked this ?

UPDATE [2017-June-29]: You can also install it on RetroPie Menu and then navigate through menus using a joystick. Just run the script with --install argument:
./rpie-art.sh --installI don't really understand what to do here, no. I am familiar with PuTTy if that's I think needs to be used.
-
@greenhawk84 If you quit emulationstation and have a keyboard hoooked up to your pi, you can follow the steps in the link that UDb23 listed to install the overlays automatically. It's just at the command line of the pi.
-
@greenhawk84 you can do through SSH (putty) as well.

@hurricanefan thank you, I'll give it a shot this weekend hopefully. These bezels are so cool, since they use the original arcade art. I am tired of black borders!

To install on RetroPie menu you have to perform that
--installcommand after the others that there are on the same post (git clone, etc...). -
Hello, can someone use this and make an overlay for Turtles in Time arcade? This was the original side art.
-
OK, so I figured an easy way for me to apply these amazing overlays through the Retroarch menu. How do I snag the .cfgs from Github pages?
Also, I have overlay files (.png) that I snagged from some other sources, but they did not come with .cfg. How do I apply it?
-
@greenhawk84 use the rpie-art. Link on my signature.

I found some really nice system-specific borders. I keep all my Neo Geo games in one category on ES. Unfortunately these are 2560x1440, I'll need 1920x1080. :(

@simbz23 For the NBA Jam TE with MK characters, you should put the Revision (2.0 I think) near the logo. Then for regular NBA Jam TE, remove the MK characters and the Revision. Just a suggestion.

Anyone care to take a stab at Puckman (original Japanese Pac-Man)?

overlay for Turtles in Time arcade
That image is low res and, after some research, It seems that is custom side art and NOT the original arcade side art.
Good quality scans of the actual arcade cabinet artwork are quite rare.
Still I was able to find some nice original stuff... so... overlay may come soon. -

Aww man, that was really cool art (IMO), oh well, I am sure you will make a quality bezel. I may try my own hand at that graphic I posted. I am working on a Street Fighter II CE bezel (maybe both integer and non-integer). This is ADDICTING!
-
@greenhawk84 That graphics is cool sure; the point is unfortunately for 1080p the res is too low (on the display it would look unsharp if stretched).
Sure I confirm making overlays is addictive ;-)
Not only the actual making but also the searching on the web... some images are so rare.. it's like treasure hunting... hours of searching and checking forums.
In a few cases as no quality images existed I asked owners of real cabs to kindly take pictures of 'em (that was the case of Depth Charge and In the End). -

@udb23 So I created my first bezel and I guess I created a repository? I have no idea what to do. So I tried to upload my .PNG file?

The file is too big for the forum to preview here.

Well done !
If you'd like your bezels to be included in those that @melu's script can automatically install you need to provide the related cfg and info.txt files.Edit: typo in the link fixed

@udb23 more info about info (?!) here: https://github.com/meleu/rpie-art/blob/master/INFO.md

For images too big to be uploaded You can use the "image" icon in the post editor and link the "download" page of your image from github.
