      @sergioad Haha, 3rd one doesn't have any coloring... it was just the outline for the next attempt at a logo.

        @rookervik I meant the one that looks from the 80's, like OutRun :)

          Can change folder colors. Not sure what to do for "All". Other than maybe an infinity symbol, or some sort of dual box with the boxes having a check mark in them.

            @rookervik Maybe a folder with a list view symbol to contrast with Carbon's icon virw controller?

              Thought maybe a more stylized folder would look nicer.

                Personally I prefer the original folder design though both do look good.
                Have you come up with an 'All Games' icon yet? I also found that the most difficult to think of an icon for.

                    That symbol works perfectly.

                    Just a quick note on your 'Last Played' icon. Shouldn't the arrow be going anti-clockwise? Otherwise you're implying the future where as you want to imply the past.

                        it reminded arduino symbol, but I loved it anyway!

                          @meleu Ugh, that's strikingly similar. I might have to try something else.

                            It is very similar but I wouldn't worry too much. It's used in a different context and only people who use Arduino are likely to notice. I knew the Arduino logo but I still didn't notice the similarity before @meleu posted the comparison, I just thought what a clever idea it was to use the infinity symbol to represent a controller.

                              how about a raspberry pi, or an SD card/USB drive? i was making a pixel version of the pi but gave up because i'm a lousy artist: pi3

                                By far the best theme in my opinion. I was just wondering if there might be video support coming this year? I understand all the time and sweat you have put into this and we are extremely appreciative.

                                I noticed some how someone did it, but I don't thinks it's your version:

                                Thanks

                                    @sergioad I did, I haven't had time to run over and check it. I work late today so I will try to check it before I go in.

                                      Not so sure about the tab colors. But that's what I have so far.

                                        @g0nz0uk The video support, when I was adding it, was buggy and didn't have layers support. The pixel2 theme supports videos now. I just haven't fixed the errors on the carousel. Some logos appear FAR larger than they are supposed to and I'm not sure how to fix them right now.

                                        I am getting help with Luminous right now to get folder support in. I just don't have the time anymore. I'll see what I can do about Pixel1. I was supposed to re-draw all of the pixel systems but that's not going to happen with work. I am almost done with the folder artwork though. I just need to finalize colors and create logo art.

                                        I will make me a TO-DO list and add all of this to it. I've been away far too long. :D

                                          Is there any chance you could add 5:4 support for Pixel Metadata or under detail? The "Choose" part is blocked out on a 5:4 monitor.

                                            @sgtjimmyrustles I have no idea. I don't have a 5:4 monitor. I can try to launch ES in a resolution like that and fix it. That's not a typical aspect ratio, and will require a complete fork of pixel.
