This one ?

Just yesterday, I was watching a video of a guy who built an arcade setup using a GameCube and made the arcade stick's ball-top out of that *Monkey Ball* banana. I really hope I can find the video showing how he did the mod—I seem to recall he used a Neo Geo arcade stick, though he had several mods for GameCube controllers using different arcade sticks. I hope he hasn't deleted his YouTube channel.

Can't figure why when I change genesis/magadrive boxcovers layout, that would change neogeo layout also and vice versa. The strange thing is that happened just for this two....
I use genesis_plus_gx_md_libretro_wii.dol, and fbalpha2012_neogeo_libretro_wii.dol VM

I found some hints but I can´t understand yet everything on how coverflowrs are handle.
I recycled the DaSkanker Blank Custom Theme (don't ask me why), to have simple screen with my most used plugins. I'm not a big fan of pseudo wheel oriented. In conjunction I like The elegant Carbonik theme.
The original theme have many new_source as source in source_menu.ini, using sourceflow=4,
My bad was renamed all those source plugins buttons, and don't alter the sourceflow=4. Now I'm not sure what to do to have proper theme structure.

What I can´t explain is that some cd based systems (pc_engine) are sourceflow=4 but not altered by Genesis or neogeo that alter each other with the same sourceflow=4 parameter.

If you prefer not using the Wheel "Flow" try any of my "Source" themes. The Source themes include 15 different Cover Flows to choose from on the fly, similar to the original default theme. The Flow "Wheel" themes have locked cover flows with only 1-3 to choose from. I did release a "Carbon" theme you may like but it is different than the original Carbonik theme from yesteryear. Anyhow, just making you aware there are several different themes available just a download away.

No offense taken, but i don't quite understand your interpretation of simplicity?

The original Carbonix theme only used "Cover Flow"...what is different that you are having issues with using the "Source" themes?

If any consolation, I pointed out this very question some years ago to fledge68 of keeping Source a priority, and releases are still 100% supporting Source like it was always intended.

I believe the issue you have is your unwillingness to follow the structure and create your own model. If you do happen to create a new model, please share.
 
My model is to be the the closest of a virtual game collection, with each boxcovers matching original scale, slick rendered and no décorations around.
Id loved to have just consoles logos or consoles miniatures for buttons, with no frames for sélection screen.
There is so many options and configurations with this wonderfull and underated application.
Though I do not understand very well the architecture off it, starting with sourceflow and coverflow variants...
So my main concern is to figure out why are neogeo and megadrive layouts are linked.
I could post some configurations files here.
