....I can edit my screenshots down to just the top glass of the fruit machine and it will fit perfectly.
For your info, the optimal size (@ 1920x1080) is 652x952pixels (you can calculate the ratio from those sizes)

Ok, that's handy to know. Thanks :)

Thanks a lot for the kind words, your feedback is really appreciated!
This is the best reward we could get for the work done :)

Are me and Reg allowed to share this theme with others or is it strictly for us? The only reason I ask is that we're both a member of a fruit machine forum and there are other people building cabinets and such that would love this theme. (Also, I presume they would have to buy the Premium mGalaxy to use it so it would be good for you??)
You're greatly encouraged to speak about this theme release around you, of course! That would be nice if mGalaxy would become the de-facto front-end for fruit machine enthusiast! :)
The theme has been added to the official theme pack, so anyone supporting us with a Premium license will find it in the theme pack.

Thanks again for the words...and for spreading the news in the community!

I've just tried this and it is AWESOME!!

Really really good. I wondered how the final thing would look but you've done an amazing job!!

I really like the fruit machine graphic you've used and it means I can edit my screenshots down to just the top glass of the fruit machine and it will fit perfectly.

Thank you for all your hard work on this. Really appreciated.

 :)  :)  :)

I am only speaking for myself here, but absolutely fantastic.

The more generic look of this allows for a multitude of gaming machine, but for my use on a Fruit Machine, simply brilliant.

Note I had to run this on a PC to check as the monitor is out the cabinet at present, but by god, you've ticked every box for me here - you really have.

Thank you VERY MUCH.

I have no compliants and all I can say, is when I saw this pop into my email earlier today - this was the first thing to try as soon as I got home.

Cheers. :)

Hi guys,

Would you please test the theme (sent on your private mail) and give your feedback here (do you like it, is it working nicely,...)?
Thanks!

(the picture below is a photomontage cause we don't own fruit machine games)

I think it looks superb. I think I prefer the buttons lit up as you have them.

My only tiny niggle would be to have it say "Insert note" or "Insert coin" instead of "bill" but that's just because I'm based in the UK.

I think the rest of the design looks brilliant. Great work! :-)

The background image is done and here is a preview!



..but we need your assistance here :) : maybe just a detail but we'd like to know if all the buttons should be lighted or only some of them (for a real fruit machine experience  ;))
Is there a problem to have them all lighted? If so, what buttons should preferably be lighted?



Thanks!

Awesome news !  Awesome...

...ideally, for the monitor I want to use it's 16/10 ( Dell 3007WFPt 30" Widescreen Monitor ).

If we could have both, that would be brilliant and also for others we send this way - they'd know that if they register - they'll have an option that is perfect.

Thank you again.

Great to hear it's on the way!

That's brilliant news! Thank you.  :D

Not sure about Reg but 16/9 vertical would suit me perfectly. Cheers.  :)

Reg, uptown47,

It's on the way! ;)
About the ratio, do you guys need the same thing? A 16/9 vertical theme?

I would like to create a fruit machine theme (perhaps like the 'arcade' theme, with a cabinet and the monitor displaying screenshots). I  would need a 'generic' fruit machine cabinet that would suit for most of the fruit machines! Can you give me images/links to such a cabinet (from your point of view)?

Second point, related to the first one: are there screenshots available for the fruit machines?
If yes, do they capture the whole machine or only the display? (cause if it represents the complete machine, my first idea is obsolete ;) )

Hi There - so some of the people that are coming here because of the work I've done with mGalaxy based on the fruit machines.

This is a request that we spoke about in March, I had sent you the files.  I think you'll find excatly what  I sent you is 100% usable for the needs of what is being asked here or at the very least, could you do a couple please with the template that you have got also included ?

Cheers.
