GIMs are Sony's own format, thus there aren't really any programs available for editing GIMs.
(you can still extract them by selecting GIM from the dropdown list when extracting an icon)
RCO Editor defaults to extracting as a 32 bit BMP, which does contain an alpha channel. However, you'll need an application capable of rendering 32 bit BMPs - only one I know of is Photoshop.
Sometimes my msvideo_main_plugin.rco is not 100%,.. not showing the text when using repeat or fast forward etc,.in the video menu,.. so i tried to extract all and replace all,.. but for some reason rcoedit does not replace all,.. so i deleted all .bmp's from the folder i extracted all files in and tried replace all again and worked fine,.!!
by the way after this the msvideo_main_plugin.rco works 100%
I was lacking photoshop from the last format of my hdd..

edit: even though photoshop detects the alpha channel, it isn't easily applied to the image. Im using CS2
nope it takes work and some understadning on how the psp will see the icon if it see it at all lol but jsut do some trail and error and you should be abel to figur it out
Hey Zinga any chance of you implementing the ability to add page data in your rco editor, or will that take to long?
theres an example of how to add page data in the source and if you know vb you can add a button to do it how ever you still have to figuar a way to rewrite the vshmain.prx to add a another menu and use it if wee can figur this out the poassabiltys are endless. But download the source and look it's there so you can play with it lol

With the 1.x series, no.
If I ever decide to start v2, possibly - I don't quite understand page resource insertion fully myself, though.
any new devleament on the rco side?

Also i noticed this before but for some reason if you compress the viz rco the random viz icon disapears,.. lol's
By the way using deflated means more ram for other icon's right!?
