: Just of the top of my head, here are a few ideas I had (some of them may be idiotic, please disregard them):

: 1. Skinner app (you already mentioned this)
: 2. Multiple screen resolutions (maybe the skinner app would let you make a skin for whatever resolution you wanted).

multiple resolutions are already supported.

: 3. Custom game lists
A utility is in the works....

: 4. Support for any program (DivX players, Arcade Jukebox, other PC games, etc). I'd love to be able to use RD as an all-in-one entertainment center.

Probably will never happen unfortunately. In good conscience I'll only add support for apps that have redefinable keys. Media players usually don't have this option. Arcade Jukebox is a definate yes. I love that prog so I'll find a way to include it. PC games are a definate maybe. But this is an arcade front-end, so it's low on the priorities.

: 5. Console emulator support
Won't happen. This is for arcade cabs. I have been pondering the idea of a plug-in that's accessable through the RD that would launch a seperate console fe though.

: 6. I think the heading above the game list needs to have a title rather than the rom path.

I can change that, but the only thing I could change it to would be the name of the exe.

: If I think of more I'll continue the list. Is it possible to get rid of the border around the two screenshot windows to the left of the game list if I want to?

I can add support for that, but the space on each edge is not going to be transparent. That's why I put the border in.

: Also, please read my question which is in my reply to your previous thread.

: Thanks,
: EA
