Hi all,
this is my first question here, so bear with me. I've spent last few days trying to find some information and I am unable to find the correct usage.
The site on gamebrew NDSForwarder_3DS states:

Custom dsiware banners​

  • They must be named the same as the nds file.
  • If your nds file is Jamal's Home Cooking.nds your custom banner should be Jamal's Home Cooking.bin.
  • Custom banners can be located with the nds file or in /3ds/forwarder/banners/.

Custom Icons​

  • They must be 4bit BMPs, 32x32 pixels and be named the same as the nds file.
  • If your nds file is Jamal's Home Cooking.nds your custom icon should be Jamal's Home Cooking.bmp.
  • No Colorspace info (compatibility options when exporting in GIMP).
  • Color at index 0 will be transparent/white.
  • Custom icons can be located with the nds file or in /3ds/forwarder/icons/.
But, I am unable to install the game with banners and icons. I have the following files:
'Legend of Zelda, The - Phantom Hourglass (Europe) (En,Fr,De,Es,It).bin'
'Legend of Zelda, The - Phantom Hourglass (Europe) (En,Fr,De,Es,It).bmp'
'Legend of Zelda, The - Phantom Hourglass (Europe) (En,Fr,De,Es,It).nds'
'Legend of Zelda, The - Spirit Tracks (Europe) (En,Fr,De,Es,It) (Rev 1).bin'
'Legend of Zelda, The - Spirit Tracks (Europe) (En,Fr,De,Es,It) (Rev 1).bmp'
'Legend of Zelda, The - Spirit Tracks (Europe) (En,Fr,De,Es,It) (Rev 1).nds'
I've also tried to put the files in their respective folders but it did not help.
/3ds/forwarder/banners/
/3ds/forwarder/icons/
Is this method even working?
