i think it is the only thing, where GameEx suffers comparing to other frontends. everything else is superior comparing to others. thats what i liked it for all the years. outthere now, are a whole lot of pretty nice themes in other frontends, thx to the community. they have nice fx too and that i am missing in GameEx. by the way i liked Retro-theme and your MegaMame-theme the most, especially your theme in your cab ... i hope my dream will come true soon....

i dont get it, why there are so many objects in the object-browser. for what do i need the whole stuff, if it all do nothing? its a pain to always browse up and down, i a tiny window, which i cannot resize. if they are useless, why dont get rid of them? it would be far more easier editing if i only have the layout, back and foreground, the buttons etc.... but what is the other stuff: Jukebox, Radio, Pictures etc.
hope everone understand me, i am talking about the Object Browser window in the theme-editor.

EDIT: i found out how to use different layout settings. you need to enable this, in the theme-editor... go to edit menue: --> select options and in the following dialog go to --> settings and check custom module layouts... this way, you can have different layout-ordering for objects for each menue avalaible in the object-editor window. that helped a lot, now i have only the problem with the centered picture, which seems a bug, because one "image" centers all pictures and other "image" dont. so i ask here, if this can be fixed, as it exists allready for one "image". for a extra "image", where you can put 3D-cabs... i can wait and live with the state, how it is. hope that helped someone

by the way: how can i make the fonts used like in post # 232 ?? that look like a nice wheel...... i want to have that too

So, I'm essentially trying to skin a theme to fit more of my style, but the theme I liked as a base has its backgrounds that shake and move around. How do I get this to stop?

Edit: found my answer.

Though now, I can't seem to find out how to alter 1 thing. When you start up GameEx, the GameEx logo pops out, and 6 symbols zoom out. I need those symbols to go away. I just can't find where that is done. I know I can change the GameEx logo. I know that other themes don't have those 6 symbols. So I just need to figure out how to remove those symbols.
