yes, there is a different static png for vertical and horizontal so as to maintain proper aspect ratio on the frame)...
good idea.

OK... so I am adding frames that you can choose from on the fly from within the layout (why make people change file names?)...

Any particular colors/styles you'd like to see?

This is what I have thus far...

Frame 1 is above... and each of these will come in both horizontal and vertical orientations...

Oh... and I've added the ability to use background images easily. I'm going to include a number of them with the release, but replacing any of them is as easy as replacing a PNG file (ideally at 720x480 and 480x720 if vertical)...

Everything can be done inside the settings menu... it's pretty simple. Just play around a bit if you wish.

Is there a bright blue frame? If not can I use PS to change colors on one of the existing frames and just save it? Haven't installed yet..

Not sure what Im doing wrong. upgraded to version 3.83, loads to attract man, can load and play games. Change to sdarcade2.3 and get starfield with missing wheel image, nothing happens. If I restart cab, displays attract man again yet shows sdarcade2.3 in serv menu???
