how can i do this on a gba supercard menu

[kalabaw]

   This banner is limited to 16 colors, sucky,
   so you have to get creative with your skinning.

Actually it is possible to create banners with way more colors than 16. I succeeded in creating some tests with more than 128.



The process is to :
1) create a banner in full colors RGB mode.
2) reduce to Indexed Color
3) Modify your Color Table so #1 is main background, #128 is hover font and #142 is normal font
4) save optimized as a 8-PNG without changing depth color and you're done with a hi quality skin !

here is a useful PSD so you can change everything on your own :

and the flashmp for lazy/unlucky guys (works on my MiniSD, don't cry after me if this crashes your SC)

I've got a problem...

When I rename my sd_163b file (firmware file of my SC Mini-SD) to 'firmware.gba', it remains a .bin file.

Can anyone help me on this? How do I change a .bin file into a .gba file? Thanks!

Be sure you can see your files extensions in XP

I renamed the file to firmware.gba, but it is still a .bin file... does this have anything to do with my computer settings or something??

How do i see my file extensions?

[Jabba]

Do the SD and mini SD use the same firmware?

Hey there, got another problem...

I've got my .gba file, but when I clicked on "extractor.bat", it said:

Abriendo 'firmware.gba' ...
Tamato de 'firmware.gba' incorrecto (675828 != 524288)

What does that mean? What do I do? Sorry for the trouble... I'm clueless when coming to things like this... Thanks!
