      I wanted to register for the EmulationStation forum but it looks as though it has been hacked. So apologies first of all if I shouldn't be making ES requests here.

      I would like to acquire some Vic 20 & Plus 4 images similar to those that ES uses for the Commodore 64 (to maintain the same theme & look).

      Can somebody help me please? I've done the usual Google but I can't find any soft/pastel images similar to the ES C64 imagery. If I could find images - even in a non-SVG format, that would be great.

      The images I'm talking about are the "top banner" images that you see when you select which system you want to use on ES.

        @SparkyNZ oh weren't you aware? Emulationstation is now a leading supplier of Viagra .

        Anyways are you referring to the logos? You can make some in inkscape I also think drmaxwell has some vic20 logos of sorts in his set somewhere on the forum.

              @SparkyNZ If you're looking for vic20 svg logo for ES, it's part of my Custom svg logo Pack.
              You can find it here.

                @UDb23 Thanks. Sorry, what I'm really looking for is the below image in SVG form (ie. the long metal strip). EmulationStation has a similar image for the Commdore 64.

                Here's the Plus 4 logo too:

                  As said at the above mentioned link you can find these Vic-20 logos in SVG (in the themes folder). These are the original logos found on the computer (first for US/EU, second for Germany); the specific one you request was used on later versions of the vic 20 (same machine, just different logo).

                    @UDb23 Got that old logo but really want the newer keyboard strips personally. Just trying to keep all of my CBM emulation themes looking similar - and I'm hoping to find a Plus/4 (or C16) one too.

                      @SparkyNZ Shouldn't be too difficult creating the svgs you like. Will give it a try tomorrow.

                        New SVGs made for Commodore Vic 20, 64, 16 and Plus/4.

                        Now available in this folder ( added to Custom SVG Logo Pack).
