Been playing around with theme editing/creation and thought I’d share a few here in the forum. Enjoy.

These are optimized for my SD 4:3 display, so I can’t say how they’ll look on a widescreen monitor.

Oops, only allowed 2 attachments. Here’s the GameBoy theme.

Great – I will add them to the upcoming update!

BTW: How did you obtain the artworks and meta data for the MAME games? Manually or with a script?

Could you possibly post all your other themes?

For the Capcom System 1 & 2 I built the gameslist manually. Not too bad since there are less than 100 titles and I have a nice organized collection of game artwork & metadata from Hyperspin arcade front end software.

Real cool to have my themes added to RetroPie. It’s an honor. Thanks for all your work on this great project!

I’ve made modifications to some of the included themes but only subtle changes to the ones I didn’t post (e.g., moving the Sega Genesis box art down a little). Right now I am working on a theme for a 2-Player-only NES category so I’ll be posting that soon. My other themes are just slight variations on what is already available.

Nice work man!

Love the Atari wood grain – takes me back to the good old days when I actually had the real deal with the faux wood finish – nice!
