-===== Create a new bezels definition =====
-  * Connect to your batocera.linux box, via the network for example
-  * In the ''/userdata/'' folder, create a directory called ''decorations'' (next to ''roms'', ''bios'', ...)
-{{bezel1.png?500|}}
-  * Inside the ''decorations'' folder, create a new directory, let's call it ''mybezels''
-  * Go in batocera.linux menu > games > decorations
-  * Check that the ''mybezels'' decoration is available and select it
-{{bezel2.png?500|}}
-  * Note 1 : default bezels are available at https://github.com/batocera-linux/batocera-bezel All default bezels have a 1920x1080 resolution and might not work if you use a different resolution.
-  * Note 2 : if you create a "default" folder instead of a custom name, bezels will replace the existing "default" bezel (the 2 folders will be virtually merged, taking as preference the ''/userdata/'' bezels)
-=== Create a new bezel ===
-In batocera.linux, you can create :
-  * bezels for specific games on specific systems (mario on SNES)
-  * bezels for specific games on all systems (mario on all systems)
-  * bezels for specific system (a bezel for SNES, one for GB ...)
-  * a default bezel for all
-You can have all four at the same time. In case your ROM/system selection matches more than one option, Batocera will apply the rules in the order listed above. If there is no suitable bezel, no bezel will be displayed.
-A bezel is composed of 2 files. A ''.png'' file and a ''.info'' file.
-== specific games on specific systems ==
-Bezels for a specific game on a specific system must be placed in the ''games/<system>/'' directory and have the same name as the ROM.
-Example: ''mybezels/games/snes/mario.png'' and ''mybezels/games/snes/mario.info''
-With this example, your bezel will be used for the game ROM ''mario'' only on SNES. If you have a ROM named ''mario'' on GB or NES, it will be not be displayed.
-== specific games ==
-Bezels for specific games on all systems must be placed in the ''games/'' directory and have the same name as the ROM.
-Example: ''mybezels/games/mario1.png'' and ''mybezels/games/mario1.info''
-In that case, if you have two ROM files named ''mario1'', one for SNES and one for GB, both will display your bezel.
-== specific systems ==
-Bezels for specific systems must be placed in the ''systems'' directory and have the same name as the system.
-Example: ''mybezels/systems/snes.png'' and ''mybezels/systems/snes.info''
-== default bezel ==
-The default bezel must be at top level and have the name ''default.png'' and ''default.info''
-Example:
-Create the file ''mybezels/default.png''.
-A size of 1920x1080 is recommended.
-The bezel will be drawn over the emulator rendering. Thus, you must keep transparent parts on the image.
-{{bezel3.png?500|}}
-== the .info file ==
-The ''.info'' file is a text file describing how the image must be displayed over the emulator.
-  * ''width'': width of the image
-  * ''height'': height of the image
-  * ''top'': top/left/bottom/right define the marge in pixel let to render the emulator.
-  * ''left'': top/left/bottom/right define the marge in pixel let to render the emulator.
-  * ''bottom'': top/left/bottom/right define the marge in pixel let to render the emulator.
-  * ''right'': top/left/bottom/right define the marge in pixel let to render the emulator.
-  * ''opacity'': a value between 0.0 and 1.0 to define the transparency of the image
-  * ''messagex'': horizontal position of game messages (when a state is saved for example)
-  * ''messagey'': vertical position of game messages (when a state is saved for example)
