Question green theme planned release need help
ok ive made a pretty nice looking green theme heres a screenie but i have a few problems and need to solve them.

[Image: screen2-4.jpg]

1.  The date and time:  How can i change these to green and also, along with the battery (which i know how to change colour) how can i make them smaller, like ive done with the icons?  Which file(s) do i need to edit?

2.  As you can see my nintendo 64 icon is, well, messed up, does anybody have a simple, not many colours version of this logo because when i create a green one it can't conver because it has too many colours.

Thanks for the help :)

Oh yeah i ve been struglin all day to figure out how to reduce colors,but you can't if you don index it,and you get 8 bits icons with no alpha.

If you want to do green the clock and that stuff just paint green all the first RGB channel,since you got Alpha channel in your 32 bit tex_battery ,don't worry it will get all green only the battery.

or you can play around with the Rco editor changing the value R G B on the page data of your system_plugin_fg,i only supose i never get it to work,cause i don understand very well how it works with these values.

O.O  Yep more simple as that impossible.

For your N64 icon ,try to cut out the background and just use the icon ,then try changin the color to see if it works,or try to create Alpha channel of it,then like i said,paint the rgb channel with the color you want and try it,to make more precise alpha use magic wand in photoshop.

Its more accurate if you just load the selection of the layer, hold down CTRL and click on the image of the layer in the Layers panel.

I'm not disappointed in you, I'm disappointed in myself, for believing in you.
