You misspelled 'Hanami'. Never forget that came first, was updated with continuous lighting shifts, cloud cycles, and it's actually 3D ;)

Is using a game theme much different than a brand you like? I wouldn't call GAF a brand as much as I'd call it a community.
You have to set all the account so that your PS4 is their primary (each account can have ONE primary PS4, but the PS4 itself can have unlimited account to which it's set as primary).
It so that let say you have siblings/husband-wife living together and they have one PS4 between them, they each have have an account and that PS4 their primary for all of them and can share purchase between themselves.

Wow, made a fair bit of progress already and we just started.
I've got a new particle routine and a custom "shader" (that's in quotes for a reason) working to give the logo a crystalline appearance, as well as the day-night shift. Right now, though I'm still figuring out how to frame each element.
I'm toying with an active 3D bokeh effect for the content menu, and a pull back to the symbol in the function menu with some nice transitions
And of course, the requisite gif to describe the animation.

Hey i recently asked about this! Nice one!
- If you created the previous Gaf themes, then i really liked the music that accompanied them.
- Please do a dark theme and a seperate light theme. My eyes are sensitive to white backgrounds and as such, i cant handle the xbox's light theme. Im all about the darkness.
- Thank you for doing this. I patiently wait happily :)
Themes with text logos on them are lame, so don't add text. There's a Driveclub theme on the PS Store that could have looked perfect if it didn't say Driveclub on it. Like ugh, we know what game the theme is for.
Is it possible to include famous threads from Resetera into that theme? It doesnt have to be the comment section, but the front title is okay
Don't put the text, makes it look cheap.
More generally, I had the old country theme back in the day and I have been hoping you would make one for Era eventually. Thank you for doing this again.

Without! Unless there's a more minimalistic way to display it?So here's the big choice for people:
with or without logo?

Definitely think it looks cleaner/nicer without the text.

Oh, and of course, I now have a sample of the theme audio:
Composed this piece to go along with the theme development, something ambient, electronic, meant to compliment the visuals and evolve along with them. final piece will be seamlessly looped.

Cool Idea - I loved your previous themes.
Will your youtube livestream be available afterwards? Unlikely I'd be able to tune in live.

Based m0dus. You're after my own heart incorporating the legacy dark theme as opposed to the night theme scheme on era. I still go between the legacy ps2 and undertale themes and will gladly welcome this work of art with open arms. We all appreciate your hard work and dedication to providing us, the community, with your inspired creations. Thank you Truant Pixel!
Don't know about the limitations of themes development, but would it be possible to periodically pull feeds from the forum and list some of the latest 'highlights' directly onto the theme?
Really like it. I would leave system music on if it was something along the sound of this.
This is looking good, I also prefer no text.
And my suggestion would be to have separate options for dark / light in addition to the day / night cycling, light / bright backgrounds just don't work for me and I'm pretty sure I'm not the only one. :o

It's a thought, though it might be pushing it to request distribution of 3 free themes. They might only let me do the one ;)

Nope :) neat idea, but that functionality is outside the scope of the theme software unfortunately.

This looks good nice job m0dus.
If I had to change anything I would just keep the resetera logo only without the "resetera" text under it.
Well, I will be watching if you do. It's also great to achieve something like this on the internet, for educational purposes (or just for memories some years from now).
You did really a great job :D
I use the Area X theme since the game is launched.
But the Singularity theme is also very beautiful and slowly it's time for a switch.

Alright. next up, text legibility.
Because presently the function screen utilizes the ERA purple, any light color will work.
Because we flip from light neutral gray to a dark neutral gray, legibility will be key for notifications.
A couple of our options:
Basically, we can do either white, or a very light purple / pink. It may not necessarily read as "pink" with general use regardless. Anything darker, and it's difficult to read in the lower content screen.
Thoughts?
