thaace, If your talking about the video I posted. I have no idea what song it is.

Its only a tutorial I found that someone else posted on deviant art so I take absolutely no credit for it at all. It just helped me and thought it might be of some help to people here.

Its a tutorial using photoshop program.

Sorry mate I haven't got the link.

It was in the comments section of a start orb which was grey and had a completey black small windows icon in the middle.

Hope that helps a little as its about as much as I can remember.

Done a bit of research listning to the song, and i am pretty sure this is the one: White houses by Vanessa carlton.

Lyrics: (1)
Crashed on the floor when I moved in
This little bunk alone with some strange new friends
Stay up too late, and I'm too thin
We promise each other it's til the end
Now we're spinning empty bottles
It's the five of us
With pretty eyed boys girls die to trust
I can't resist the day
No, I can't resist the day

Wow , sergio , you're listening skill is perfect . I can only hear about 90% of the song :-s.

Edit @sergio : Can you tell me is it MacOSX operation in the video that he's using ?

 

[gr00f]

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.

My First attempt,using the dragon i got done and created a red orb in photoshop.As you hover it raises up slightly,as you click it raises slightly again

 

[Minotar]

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

 

[Minotar]

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
