Well I just want to say thanks for giving us users the potential to make MAME our own. I never knew that this was all possible. I just came across a video showing pillarbox effects and wanted mine to look the same. A few weeks later, here I am making some cool stuff.
I'm glad I am able to show you devs that there are people willing to dive into it all, even though I had zero experience editing the layout files. A little reading and support go a long way. I'm hoping I can show other users some of the baddassery things that can be done with BGFX...and I hope more bells and whistles are coming down the pipeline.
