    As soon as the song came on I had to mute it as I was watching it at work. I'll have to have a listen when I get home now.

    Sergio, do you or anyone else know of a program I could use instead of the Restorator trial. I think someone mentioned something a while back when I was going through all the pages but I don't know where abouts that was.

    Thanks
    I believe you might be able to do it with Resource Tuner.

    First, I know the bmp size is supposed to be 54x54 but how big is the Orb itself supposed to be?

    Reason I ask is I made one but it keeps having a brief flash of the black (transparent?) when hovering / clicking the start orb. Which I've read is because there is some pixels outside the orb part.

    Secondly, How are ya'll getting the pics so clear when shrinking them? I seem to get alot of distortion on mine at times.

    Also, I keep telling it to make background transparent but then after all's said and done it'll be a white background. I've seen other peoples where the background doesn't show up and I've yet to figure out why mine does this. Any ideas?

    Probably have another question but atm I can't remember what it was LoL /sigh

    Oh, I use Photoshop 6.0 for editing/creating.
    1) Use one of the uploaded files here and paste over it.

    2)Not sure really,mine seems slightly distorted aswell but they do get a bit better once you save them.

    3)Once you design the orb,select the ORB itself with the circular selection orb or pen tool,which ever works best for you,copy (CTRL+C),create new layer,paste (CTRL+V).

    Then hide the backround image,then flatten image and shazzam!transparent backround,or none really.

    My latest and greatest lol

    Funny thing is i have to save them as 24bit and not 32bit for them to look properly,if i save them as 32 bit they just look like a white circle with a hint of red blue etc


    I present...my Toyota Start Button


    It starts off blue,hover over it and the toyota sign appears,click it and the backround goes red with the toyota sign:)
