I tried MA, but it did a weird bug on me where I could not update game lists at all, and Mame took ages to open only for it to stop working, so blah.
So I stuck with AtomicFE. Much less easy to use, layout editor is a PITA but it works very well.

I woke from my Coma :dizzy: Wow so this is the future then
The reality is that I have changed jobs three times in the last two years hence the lack time for MaLa.
. Message me in the MaLa section with your perental control ideas ;D

My vote is for Mala. Easy to customize and looks great! I am very happy with it!

Attract-Mode. It's the FE I've been wanting for well over a decade.

I know the post about this is a bit old, but my Arqadium plug in for Mala has some support for parental controls. Basically, it prevents launch of any game tagged in the game list as adult. See my sig for the link.
It might not be exactly what you're after but I'm open for suggestions.
My votes still with Mala, although Raygun and Lechucks start wars front end is starting to look pretty sweet!

Props to Arximidis for that, I'm just the skin guy constantly flogging the whip on whoever stumbles into my path for an FE that actually does what I want ;D
I was a huge proponent for MALA, and it still absolutely has a place in certain builds I do, but HTML5 FE is really starting to come along. It's not quite there yet but man, it is well on its way to being something special.
