Help with Hekate icons

[impeeza]

Hi! I don't understand what the problem is or what I might be overlooking, because I changed them over a year ago and now I can't seem to get it to work.
I want to change the icons for the CFW and OFW launch menu; even though I save them as 32-bit ARGB BMPs at 192x192 pixels, they show up as black when I boot into Hekate.
Do they need to be edited in a different format, or does the background need to be transparent? To be honest, I just don't remember...

the problem with this icons is they have .bmp extension but they are PNG files

use the ones attached.

Those are my personal notes on the icons and background matter

Nyx - Background

The background for Nyx, must be a 1280 x 720 32-bit BMP. Alpha blending is taken into account. For that reason, if a solid background is required, that value must be 0xFF. There are sites that can produce the correct bmp, but gimp gives the best result.

The background must go to /bootloader/res/background.bmp

Nyx - Icons

The icons supported are 192 x 192 32-bit BMP. You can utilize transparency at will and make nice mixes with the button background.

The icons can be utilized either via [boot entries names] -> boot entries names.bmp or by using icon={sd path} (preferred method), which should point at a bmp.

Additionally, using the icon={sd path}, the icon will get colorized if the name ends in _hue.bmp. That only works nicely if the icon is a white layout with transparency.

If _nobox.bmp is used then the button background is removed. Useful for icon themes that aim for a specific style.

A combo of both can be enabled via _hue_nobox.bmp suffix.

The default system icons (icon_switch.bmp and icon_payload.bmp) can be replaced with white layouts that have transparency. They can also be replaced with normal icons if the following exist: icon_switch_custom.bmp or/and icon_payload_custom.bmp
