Dudu.exe

Quote from: "onekelly"so it does get rid of the top supercard logo when you are using the touchscreen?

yes!

Bah I can' get this to work.. Is it cause I have 2.0 sp1?

Dudu.exe

Nope. it works amazing well with sp1 .. the problem is to make a good png file.. try make it under 15k

Nyutan

That seems impossible.. Can you help me figure out how to do that?

on photoshop .. there is a option SAVE FOR WEB .. there you can chose file type PNG 8 and play a little with the settings to get the best balance of size and quality!

I don't have photoshop =D

Windows GIMP (http://www.gimp.net/windows) or Serif PhotoPlus works too.

Press any key to continue . . .

adjusted the file with Photoshop to 14.47 k png file. the ratio 256x192.

in the .txt file it says "Wallpaper.png has to be png,
256x192 and usually 4BPP..." what is the '4BPP'?

Also what are the ratios everyone is using, number of colors etc...?

jmr

your files to big
the best way to get them as small as possible with photosshop
is to save for web



then PNG-8 & 64 colours or less



i still find the old skinner program better but you will have to change part1 & part3

Dudu.exe

you can reduce the Dither..  it make some colors become "Doted"

onekelly

Yeah, i had followed all of that when i got the error. So what am i missing, it is under 15k? I even get the error at 13.5k size file (not shown in picture below).



does this program need to be in a certain dir, like root C ?

Nyutan

Makes my picture look like crap.. >_> I'll just wait til the supercard team makes it so it reads a file for it.

Nyutan

Can anyone explain this to me? :

FileSelectBG=000000
FileSelectText=ffffff
FileSelectCursor=ffbc2d
FileSelectPlay=ffbc2d
     
I'd like to make the text and stuff show up and look better on a dark wallpaper.
