      If you'd still like to add this to the Retropie theme manager it's on Github now. Not sure If you'd want to add it now or when the next version is ready as that will fix a few minor bugs.

                I agree, those two are particularly impressive.

                  This is certainly the greatest ES theme ever, and getting better day by day. I'm using it in a NES Classic clone project and everything is looking great.

                  @ruckage , when you are finished with the theme, could you also provide "runcommand launching images" even if they are made via the script in this topic? https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/7193/runcommand-launching-images-for-any-theme

                  They would certainly be a great addition to the neatness of the theme once it's done. ^_^

                    Sure, obviously it will be one of the last things done though as getting systems added is more important.

                        I can't remember if it was discussed already but are you going to do something more with the carousel?

                            the background for daphne looks awesome. Makes me wonder what background you will choose for amiga? I cant wait...

                            Thanks again for this.

                              It has now been added to the retropie theme installer, so you can install/update via that if you 'Update RetroPie setup script'. :)

                                @dankcushions First, I'm really glad this is finally an "official" theme. I have a two questions, though:

                                • Should we uninstall the theme first if we already have already installed it manually ?
                                • Will the updates through the script synchronized with the updates in this forum thread? I'd like to have them as soon as they are ready as I'm really interested in a few of the systems that aren't ready.

                                Thanks in advance for the info, I'm pretty new in Retropie but I've already made many advances towards having the perfect retro microconsole. ^_^

                                  Has anyone else had issues with the scroller and gamelist being off-centered? The top selection is centered, but as I scroll down it gets further from center. I have tried messing with the line spacing, but I haven't been able to fix it. I looked through the forum to see if it's a known issue, but I haven't found any solutions. I'm using a Raspberry Pi 3, running Retropie 4.2.2. Any help would be appreciated.

                                    It's because you're not running the theme at 1080p - if you switch to 1080p it will work correctly. It's basically due to an ES gamelist bug (explained in more detail earlier in the thread). I may have a solution for a future version but even then it would require editing an XML if you wanted anything other than 1080p.

                                      Thanks. No, not a graphic designer. I just enjoy drawing and really like pixel art.

                                      Hi. Unless something has changed you can't theme the carousel yet can you? I saw a thread where it was being worked on but I didn't think it was official yet.

                                      That's great, thanks :) . As @Serj-Targarien said, how do updates work with the theme installer? Will it automatically get updated when I make changes to my git repository?

                                        Carousel is in, I updated from source a few weeks ago. I'm not sure if it's available with the basic installation though. I check RetroPie's GitHub daily lol.

                                        If you're ​interested I could make a graphical mock-up for my idea for the carousel. It may be a couple of days before I get to it though.

                                          @Syhles I think you have to udpate from source, if you update from bianary you get V2.1.5RP and i think the carousel is on V2.1.6RP

                                            I'll look into into thanks. I'd prefer to come up with my own ideas for it though. First I'll need to make sure that theming the carousel wont break the theme in older version of ES as that would be bad.
