@Nismo
I like that the Game Boy has 4 buttons!

Nismo

@backstander shhhh don't say to anybody... XD

Didn't notice!! i'll fix in a new update, thx for the advice.

I forgot to add sounds for system change and gamelist

@Nismo, you might want to leave out the system change sound for now - this change is not included in the PR I've submitted to the RetroiPie ES. I'll submit that as a separate request later. Does the tag get ignored if ES doesn't support it?

Nismo

@fieldofcows no problem i'll wait then. But at least moving on gamelist sound it's already implemented.

@Rookervik Here is the video that I promised you:

Pixel theme with video support.

@Nismo amazing job. How much work would it require to get it working with meta pixel?

Nismo

@ebtalk I don't know because i didn't take a look at metapixel code, but pixel theme takes to me about 45 min to make the changes to have video working...

Merry christmas.

I'm working on a fairly decent update to pixel. Working my way through the logo graphics right now. I'll get video previews incorporated when I release the update.

@Rookervik Thanks Rook. You do great work. Meta Pixel is by far my favorite theme right now.

Rookervik

@ebtalk Well, MetaPixel uses all of my graphics but it is not my theme.

As far as Pixel is concerned, I'm working on updating the graphics. I'll also change the license.

Here's a preview of what I'm working on. Game Boy Color is a good example because the logo is actually a little hard to see on dark-colored backgrounds. It isn't any longer. :D

@Nismo @rookervik sorry. I totally meant to say pixel-meta.

The Pixel theme that shows the metadata.

Rookervik

Another example of quite a big change. ^_^ I'm really liking these!

Are you saying my video update is not decent?... XD I released video update time ago...

@Nismo Thank you for your work. Now that video has been incorporated into the RetroPie ES fork I will edit my theme and Carbon... and Luminous and the others, to have video as well. I didn't want to mess with it unless it was actually added to RetroPie.

It also looks like Zigurana's carousel changes might be added to the RetroPie branch as well. I will keep my eye on that and see if it is added.

i like the new look, thanks, and merry christmas.

@Rookervik Your new console logos look fantastic! You mentioned changing the license; what were you planning on changing it to?

Rookervik

@mattrixk I'm planning on changing it so you can use the old logos and I use the new ones. :P

I've been toying around with the theme just to see if I can teach myself it. I'm having a hell of a time getting the videos to appear in the upper right hand box and the game box art to show up in the lower right hand side. I figured doing it would be much easier, I was wrong.
