What is everyone (current) favorite theme?

[Visitor Q]

Trying to look for a good theme for Game Ex, what is everyones favorite currently? I see that there is new support that can layer part of the image over the video to sort-of incase it, what current themes support this?

I really love the functions of Game Ex as a whole and I think it's a hard to beat front end but I am sure that most would agree that HyperSpin has really sat the bar in the looks dept.. Now before people going crying about they are two totally different front ends, I already know this but there is no reason Game Ex could not get a little better in the looks dept. as it has everyhting else going for it!

I like that one but I don't like the small videos, I would rather them biggere but that is a nice one. I also don't like the power down button on the top, two easy to select it in a hurry.

I would actually like a greyish theme.. all the elements very minimal so that the colors for snaps and vids come out even more... scrolling images like in hyperspin would be nice! I haven't really found a better theme then the standard media player theme...

so I'll use this and hope that there are some good themes coming out when the theme compitition is over!

So you are saying you like the default theme best?

[chriss]

So far yes...I modified Valhalla a while back but ran into some issues about backgrounds not displaying after updates and snaps not displaying... I switched back to the default when V3 was introduced.. It's clean and simple! All I need atm!

[Visitor Q]

I agree, Valhalla is nice... Like I said, I just wish the videos were larger.

'Future Retro' is my choice.

My cabinet is a restored Stern Berzerk cabinet (well...converted from a beat-up Frenzy unit) with an original glass bezel in it. The bezel already has a ton of colorful graphics painted on it, plus I made my control panel look something like the original.

So anything other than drab grey is too much too look at. Plus I like how descrete the top option buttons are. You can barely notice them as they look more like a design.

It's a well laid-out theme in my opinion. Clean and tight.

Blue Glass is very slick and nice for horisontal gaming. I'm currently working on a vertical screen-only theme that I like very much (only support for MAME and vertically oriented (TATE mode PC games like Raiden III and such). I don't know how many will dig it though outside the shmup guys of course. It will look crap on a horizontal screen.

Retro Box looks interesting, I think I will give it a try when I get home.

yes - you do that

[Visitor Q]

I'm sure it will suck though.

Mind you - it was done a while ago, but some nice graphics used in it.

Gonna post some pics of the latest work on the theme that I could REALLY do with some feedback on.

[Visitor Q]

Valhalla is still my favorite, its the cleanest for sure.
