What can I say, except that I greatly thank @mamule for spending so much time updating my theme and thus keeping it alive on the new version of Wiiflow!!

It warms the heart to see that this theme, created now something like 3 years ago, continues to delight Wiiflow users.

Unfortunately I myself no longer have a Wii, nor time to take care of all this.

That's why, once again, I deeply thank (no innuendo intended :mrgreen: ) @mamule for the titanic work he put in to update/fix/improve everything!!!

It wasn't a walk in the park for him, because there was quite a bit of work, my original theme was, let's say, cobbled together, with quite a few inconsistencies ^^

:bravo: :accord: :bravo: :accord: :bravo: :accord:

@mamule powaaaaaaaaa!!!

Well the sources...there was still a lot missing though...
I was an idiot back then, I should have kept everything I was doing and not erased half of it...
You still managed really well with what little you had, I'm impressed.
And all that in what, 1 short month?

EDIT: if I'm not mistaken, Carbonik was the first theme available for Wiiflow, I really bugg*d Hibern back then to get him to give me the guidelines lol

Man, quite a job to understand how it works and the bugs don't help matters.

Aaaaah the .ini files.....
My nemesis when I made my themes.
I spent hours editing them, and at first understanding how they worked!
A real mess of a system at first glance like you say, then you get used to it.

Have you already taken a look at Orchid's .ini? it's the most complicated of all I think, with Jiiwah we used the possibilities offered by the .ini to the max, I remember that back then we even asked Rwin (former wiiflow dev) to add options to the ini just for us lol.
What's called the "custom zone" to be able to show or hide stuff depending on whether you're pointing with the wiimote or not.

Ah man, so many memories!! and hours spent with the team on IRC!!

I could almost shed a tear.

EDIT: of course you can do whatever you want with all my themes with no restriction at all!!
I'd love to see Green updated too, it was my favorite after Orchid.
Especially the wall-shaped coverflows!!

Orchid is indeed the most polished, for me it's the most beautiful of the Wiiflow themes.
It's also very sober I find.
I'm extremely proud of it.

Gotta say we spent hours with Jiiwah polishing it!!
My sweet dream would have been for it to become Wiiflow's default theme, but well...

All this started from a mockup by Roku_93 on GBAtemp, which he kindly passed on to me.
He didn't have time to develop the theme and had just made a "preview" image.
From that I developed all the theme's images, and Jiiwah handled a good chunk of the .ini and especially the forwarder!!

Anyway I'm off topic there lol

Back to Carbonik, yes it's not as simple as it looks, but it's still clearly less polished than Orchid ^^ you can tell it was my first one!!

Lol ^^

By the way I read your post on GBA, about the emptyfont story.
What's this story about text on the "main buttons".
The emptyfont font I put in carbonik was never used for that, there was no text on those buttons before...
It was only used to not display the games' titles.
That must have been added afterward...
So indeed if you replace it with another font it's going to look ugly lol!!
