Help!! Can you convert this to bmp Icons?

Hi..
I found these icons from the new Frestyl Launcher...
they are 60x60 PNG Icons..
i want to convert them into 32x32 bmp Icons so i can use it with the new Clauncher V12.04..
Can someone please help?
here they are...
I donĀ“t know why you did not do it on your own.
Using a freeware gfx viewer/converter like XnView and this is done in one little step.
hey thanks.. but this isn't what i had in mind..
I actually used photoshop and resized it to 32x32x150 resolution and then save it as bmp file but it still has a White border around the icon...
then i tried to crop it .. which made it a bit better..
but i still have a problem with the gradient background from the png file...
dont know if I'm making any sense.. but basically..
the PNG icons have a gradient background and the Bitmap icons have a purple-ish background that seem to he transparent when its on windows mobile..
if someone know how to convert it with the purple background can you please show me how?
all replies are appreciated..
How are you getting the icons to display on the WM device?
I was led to believe that they needed to be in a .dll or a .exe "library" in order to be used as icons by Windows Mobile Devices.
Is this not correct?
PNG can be transparant, BMP can not be transparent unless the program that uses the BMP has a specific colorcode that it uses to make it transparent, and even then it cannot show faded transparency. Only 100% or 0%
(If this was what you are after)
I am using it for Claunch 12.04 .. I guess it allow you to use .exe, .dll, .cpl, and .bmp files as icons...
Okay here are the exsamples..
1st is the original PNG icons @ 60x60 (with the Gradient background)
2nd is the BMP done by Chistian72D @ 32x32 (with the White background)
3rd is an icon from an icon pack for Claunch (with the purple background)
the purple will blend in with whatever color you have on your windows background..
thats what I was looking for..
thanks again guys.. let me know if you know of a way to do this..
here is an easy way to do this
download "Irfanview" install and run it,
click "options", "properties", "viewing", "Choose" (main window color)
In the lower right quadrant of the color window enter values: red=255, green=0, blue=255
click "OK" then "OK" again. This will change the background color to the proper value for claunch.
Now open your pngs in Irfanview, resize them (click "Image", "resize/resample" or CTRL-R)
Then save as BMP.
The newly saved bmps will have the proper background color.
Good Luck

menu icon change

hi all,
is thers any way that the icons in the magician could be changed,i mean we change the icon as per our mood??
If you are asking about the icons for the applications, then there is a way.
you can use 'Shortcut Creator' for that

just edit the shortcut and change the icon and save. the shortcuts can be found in windows\start menu

Very nice post
thanks dude.
no man,
i earlier had a moto ming,
so when i installed a theme,everything from the icons to color scheme to menu bar colors would change..it's almost like a new phone.
but in my magician(upgraded to wm6) only the nav bar colors and wallpapers and other such small things change....the icons in programs remain the same
if we could get a theme which changes icons itself then it would b grt
neways thanx 4 dis app.

in the magician, its only possible to change the colors and wallpaper with a tsk file. the icons cannot be changed.
i dont think its possible to change the icons using a theme in magician.
anyway the moto ming runs on linux

(HELP PLEASE) how to mod Genie widget

Hi
Anyone know how to mod the News and Weather widget (genie apk) to not show pictures?
Im using an already modded widget (transparent)
and it looks lush on a black wallpaper, problem is that the pictures are lowish res and just take the shine off the overall look.
is it possible to stop them from showing somehow?
if anyone could point me in the right direction i would be most pleased.
thanks everyone
you could try editing the .png files inside.
pull it from the phone
open the .apk with and .zip program
look for the relevant .png files
replace each pic with a 1x1pixel transparent .png
push back to phone
if the alignment is out then you will have to use transparent .png images that are the same size as the originals. this will however leave a gap on the left of the widget that is empty (where the pics were)

[Q] what size do you use for making icons?

hey, im trying to make icons to make the theme i recently downloaded.
i cant get the icons to not look blurry and small.
i start with 1" x 1" and 300 res and save them as .png with NON-interlaced.
when i change the icon with launcher pro plus the icon looks like garbage.
hoping someone could help me out with this, thanks!
Added picture of icon
Text icons like that I have seen at 82x72px. And yours is 300x300px and being squeezed down will make it blurry.
good day.
72x72 is the standard resolution for LauncherPro text icons. I've made them at 128x128 for ones I wanted to use on the screen, but you can see the difference when you squeeze them down for LauncherPro.

Icons from the Dot View Case

Hello,
can anybody with the Dot View case extract or make pictures of all the weather icons?
I know that they are not really Icons, from Marques Video you can see that the real Icons is bigger and altered by the case itself.
I have some Icons from the press pictures.
I want to rebuild this Icons for Zooper Widgets and would be really thankful for pictures!
