OK so I started this day asking myself:
why da heck we are not capable of putting some pics on the SD cards, insert it on our DSi's and view them just like in the Wii...???
well, so I got this new assignement, and I tryed first of all to fit the same size (640X480 @ 72 ppi) - nope, that didn't worked (too easy I think)
then I re-did the last thing but this time even trying to redo the same KB size (or quality) wich is around 50-60 KB - nope, not even close to be recognized by the DSi
...well there must be some way to do it right, I mean it is not impossible, is it..?? my 3rd idea was to check on the properties of the file, and it says that the image was created by a NDSi (obviously), so I edited the picture on Photoshop and then rechecked the properties, as I guessed, they changed, so where is the information that displays such thing, I think is on the header of each file, isn't..?? so this time I edited the picture on paint (YES paint) and just draw some white lines over the image, the properties showed no change, but the header (using an hex editor) said the opposite, so I got my hands dirty and started toying around with copied files from the DSi to the SD and hex-editing them I manage to copy the entire header from the original file to the one that I draw some white lines over, obiosuly the KB size of the image changed but nothing else, so now if I put the file in the DSi, ta daaaaaa...!!
...well it still doesn't works but at least the app can read the file, it last longer to start the app because of the re-scan (I assume), but it counts the file, unfortunately the app it is not able to show the image, nor copy it, but I think I'm getting closer, somewhere between those lines in the hex code it is shown the size or some kind of check that the DSi uses to preview the images, where is that..?? I don't know but I'm gonna give it a shoot till I run all of my resources away...!!
P.S. there is no DSi Hacking section, so I just posted this on my blog...!!
last thing....I flipped 90 degrees CW the original picture on the win file option, and now it is show same as my edited non-original picture, put the original back to its state and the information has changed forever, so..... do never flip your photos from the DSi, unless you don't want to see them again on your DSi...!!
