HI all
Now I've got a few 75s, I regrettably admit I am looking to add custom themes to make them pretty. I thought I'd share a few useful links I found:
https://evolvapor.forumchitchat.com/post/show-off-your-custom-screens-7512757?&trail=75 has loads of examples of what people have made and shared for others to use.
***post #2 shares a "Zip file which contains an Adobe Photoshop file, includes 2 layers, single text, 2 line text, for creating your custom designs"***
***post #75 gives easy instructions on how to create 128x32 images using ms paint***
"Create a template in ms paint 2800x706 pixels you can shrink it to whatever size you like to work with after.
Now you can either type what you want, or paint what you want.
Or go to google and type what your looking for, say "white skulls on a black background" and check images tab, steal what you want by right clicking and save as, to where ever your stuff is saved.
Find a new image you like, right click and open with ms paint, use the selection tool and select it.
Right click your selection and cut.
Now paste onto your template.
Move it around, stretch it, when your ready click outside your template and there it is.
Add more, or words, or paint or whatever your heart desires.
Then resize the finished thing to 128x32pixels.
Save as.jpg or .png call it what its replacing or whatever you want"
that post also includes a link to a video including a section on this (starting around 28:08 mins in)
Next, here's a link for a thread from someone who made an .exe app for creating simple images.
the link also includes really clear instructions on using it
https://evolvapor.forumchitchat.com/post/custom-theme-image-gen-application-7816684?&trail=15
Has anyone got anything interesting on these lines they can share too please?
(e.g. a POTV logo bootup image)
