Behind the scenes I'm meddling with the database guys, if accepted the new database will include the latest additions. including the bleeding edge compatibilities of the Hi-res adventures, the latest SCI games and Starship titanic. As of this weekend I will be on vacation, maybe I can get some new themes done, maybe.

Where you planning on using long names or short?

None theme status report.

Submitted a new xml to the counsel. It includes the above games. Including a passport to adventure. Phantasmagoria 2, leisure suit Larry 7, riven a sequel to must.  As if I was getting bored with the other things I was working on.

I send klizine the crazy nick themes for a test run. Kliz is my muse as of this point. ;) kliz helps me with getting the hi-res adventures working. We just need hires 4 now. Ulysess and the golden fleece.

Avar has send me awesome scans of kings quest 7 box. But I'm slacking at the moment. Getting ready for vacation. 

I send circo the new XML and uhmm source material so he can create the game videos that are missing. 

Other then that theme wise I should try and finish what I had started earlier.. before taking on the new batches.. 

Hope you are a bit wiser

Im sure the counsel will be more then happy with you updating the xml. But the more people that give it a run, the more opinions to help perfect it

Wow amazing Klop!! I wasn't expecting this! Question, for the Arthur wheel, is this based off the box? From what I saw the Arthur text was red. There may be other versions I didn't dive too deep.

T obe honest I dont know... The other living books wheels were like this ..it felt weird to break the sequence.

Ok... so I think artistic liberty was taken for the Living Books series wheels for sake of incorporating it into HyperSpin.  The wheels don't appear to follow the art that is on the boxes, CD cases,  user guide, or book in these games case, the actual book.  The themes looks like he used a template for the books that come with the games and a background that follows the Living Books blue and yellow color scheme.

@Avar Are you collecting all Scumm artwork?  

If so... my "professional" opinion would be to definitely redo the wheels and probably revisit the themes. These are just my thoughts.

Sorry, I didn't mean to infer anything.  I was just wondering if you had anything yet and your thoughts on how we should approach.
