Question

source image for the background?

Closed this issue 6 years ago · 6 comments

Any chance you can share the source images you used for the background of the menu items? I love what you've done but would like to customize it a bit. Thanks!

Hi Brian A took a look and no god news. That theme was a real quick one I did so I did not keep any source files. Do you mean just the background on the main screen? Cause you can hardly see that one. Or do you mean the background image in the systems view? Regards Dwayne

I meant background images for each of the menu items (to select the console). For example, I'd like to make the MAME one say Arcade and I'd like to add in a bunch of other ones like NES, SNES, etc

Like I said, I did not keep any source files. Also, there is an Arcade one there already in the Arcade folder.

But you don't need my source files really. It is a 1060x372 png with 2 layers. Background I just make blurred with a filter, and add wheel images 2nd layer. Even if I had a source file it would be a blank PSD file 1060x372.

I intentionally only did arcade displays for this theme.

Ok, thanks, no problem. I don't have any graphical talent or I'd just do it myself. I'm a coder, not a graphics guy. :0

Thanks for your time and for your excellent themes

Hi Brian. So how many systems are you wanting to add? Regards Dwayne

It's ok, I got it covered. I ended up taking your vertical theme as a base and wrote some bash scripts to change out the images with image from other themes - some of them yours. I put the scripts on github but they aren't ready for use by anyone but me since I hardcoded the paths. If there were any interest, I could make them usable.

Thanks again for all your awesome themes
