      @Roxsteady I doubt you can have issues with this theme in a pi zero (if you don't use videos), it's a very light theme.

      It's not so difficult to install it and try...

        Thanks, @Nismo I'll likely backup my image and then try it. For the images, does is split those scraper 3 part images and uses them or do you have to add new images for your games? Also, how is the installation done? I m assuming you don't go through the theme options in ES(?) or do you?

        Thanks guys!

                @lilbud Yes I told you that you need to modify that, just because I improved your theme for video in a few minutes and I didn't want to spend time optimizing the size of marquees.

                How about the marquees on top of some system logos like nes? How are you planning to solve that?

                  @Nismo I really don't know, I don't use video or marquees. I might just remove marquees. Since they can vary so wildly in size, I have to watch where I place them.

                    @lilbud See my tips on the post above, also I changed <size> for <maxSize> for marquees in your flat.xml that way you can adjust the maximum for a wheel art to not override anything.

                    Also remove them it's a good idea too, because I think wheels broke a bit the flat style of the theme.

                      Just FYI @greekmanx When you swap the images from Megadrive to Genesis, and PCEngine to TB16, the PCEngine/TB16 logo breaks but the Genesis logo is fixed. So I swapped back.

                        Are you guys making changes via the github link? Just so to be sure I download the latest theme as we go along.

                          @Roxsteady I believe @greekmanx is making the changes in his local copy, not to the GitHub. Not sure

                              @greekmanx How did you get the title logo to show at the top right for each game?

                                @greekmanx let me know if you need help making a pull request on Github. The basic gist is to fork his repo https://github.com/lilbud/es-theme-flat and then make your changes to your fork. You can then send a pull request to his repo so that the changes are updated to the master.

                                    @stackdefiler the way you wrote it seems easy I will try that when and if I make more changes.

                                      so I am loving the theme the dark version btw only issue is at the bottom of each game list it chops off the name of the game. 0_1487040426117_IMG_20170213_214413.jpg

                                      Also I now agree with nismo I would get rid of marquees they don't match the theme as you see in my pic looks cleaner without them. Also I only don't have them in pic because I manually made this list for DS and didn't add any marquees don't want them and don't know where to find them

                                          @greekmanx Ah I see. I only ask because in the video it showed the game title/logo on the top right. Universal XML Scraper so logo, images, box art are all in one.

                                            @Roxsteady you mean the marquee? I am using MotionBlue Rom packs so he compiled the marquees, images, videos, and gamelist.xml I just sent them to my pi. With the exception of DS that is I am making that myself.
