Hi Jason,

First let me say, I purchased a forever license of launch box because well... frankly you deserve it! I can't believe what you have been able to accomplish in such a short amount of time with this launcher/frontend it is truly amazing so Thank you!

Anyway, I currently have a Alienware Alpha mini pc that I'm making into a dedicated emulation "station" that will end up being shelled to launch (big) box. So I wonder if you could allow for custom boot up splash screen / loading screens with either images or video. If you could allow for videos to play while big box loads in the background that would be amazing, also having a real time loading bar overlay showing the status of the loading progress would be cool too.

Maybe also make the bar customizable with colors / size / images / position / animation options. (like pac-man eating pellets or Mario chasing a goomba or Sonic running after rings or if user adds more than one "random" could be selected so it would change after every bootup). It would be really cool. (animated gifs would be great to use actual game sprites too)

Keep up the AMAZING work I look forward to seeing what else you come up with.
