Who would I talk to about making a "Dynamic XMB" Theme for BlazBlue?

Okay here's the thing...I "really" like those Distortion Drive graphics that are used with all the runes and 3D spell data and glyphs, and I'm wondering if Aksys or ArcSys could design some Dynamic XMB themes based on them.

To give you an example of what Dynamic XMB Themes are capable of there's some Dynamic Themes for a game called Code Entropy that look SUPER NICE on PS3's background. And just having a complex moving background like that just makes it look really hi-tech, plus having glyph icons and such would really add to the appearance.

If anyone capable of discussing this were available, that'd be cool.

A dynamic theme would be kick ass, but Aksys is limited on what they can do. Don't know how long you have been signed up on here, but there has been numerolus times when Beli has said "If it came out in Japan then we will have access to it" or "We are only a publisher." With that in mind, Aksys would release it, if ArcSys made one and released it. It's a bummer, because there are a lot of games that I can think of that would make a bad ass dynamic theme.

Is there any way to make Dynamic Theme on your own? I know you can do it for normal themes, but it would be cool to be able to do it for dynamic themes.

I agree that a BB dynamic theme with the DD background would be badass.

I'd like to know if there's a way to program Dynamic Themes as well...or if that's not possible, could we ask Arc System Works directly?

Do you think Arc Systems would really put out a dynamic theme if they were asked? they would prolly have to be commissioned.

Well, I don't know if they would. I don't really even know if they'd be willing to listen to foreign fans. Japanese people are like that.

If we want to get their attention, there's still a chance. You'd have to type the message in Japanese. Now, I'm not saying to pretend to be Japanese. That would never work. However, if you wrote a letter (as in, snail mail, not email) to Arc System Works telling them what you want, they will probably give it some attention.

Those who don't speak English as their native language are really impressed and excited when an American goes out of their way to use a language that's not English (if you ever deliver a speech in English in a foreign country, throw in a word from the local tongue. You will be an instant success). I'm speaking from experience.

I don't know if that will work in Japan though. I've only talked to one of two Japanese people, so I don't really know how they feel about us. If anime is any indicator, not very much, since we're all blond-haired blue-eyed imperialists.
