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.

Something like this

Thanks, Min.

It can maybe work with 7 but it will take a lot of editing in photoshop and in VSB. It will take a lot of time, and you cant be sure you can complete it without it causing problems

Is this not it? Aero Diamond for Build 7068 by ~alkhan on deviantART

Yes it is but I think the ROUNDER's is better than alkhan's . The Aero Diamond by alkhan is a bit simple , isn't it ? :)

Thanks Mr Grim for your Ultimate Black and Gold Icons , they really do fit in with my Windows Signature Edition Black and Gold theme !!!

how about this peace sign for a start orb?

Just thought you guys might be interested in these great Windows 7 VSs by Nittiyh on DeviantArt. They're two of the most unique and well-designed themes for Windows 7 so far:

Funk: Funk VS for 7 by ~Nittiyh on deviantART


Kiilki: Kiilki VS for 7 by ~Nittiyh on deviantART

he fixes it up plus redoes it for 64bit and i might give it a look. hopefully he will fix the things grim talked about as well.
