I don't know why but I can't get my icons to display. I save using save images for web or devices option on photoshop I also tried just plain save as png none worked but if I take an already made png and modify it it displays with no problem. I was wondering if the icons have to be a certain size or a specific kind of png? Your help is appreciated

Hey Deak,

would it be possible to put a "comments" button on each theme? This could be helpful for the people interested in taking suggestions on their themes, etc. (registered users of course).

I have it planned, but have not had a chance to build it yet.

every1 claims support for 16:9 but I looked and no theme really supports that. All themes wbackground are the exact backgrounds as the none wide ones with the exception of the name. Am I doing anything wrong , why do all my wbackground stretch out of proportion on my wide screen?

bump?

I had added the 1 px... try doing a hard refresh ctrl F5 and see if it still looks off on yours. I am using Squeezebox for the popups and modified it a bit to bounce up. I will try and get a zip together of theme images

For those who use the newest rev's of USB Loader GX, you must rename your files. ( I believe this is only applies to rev356 and up)

Theme creators and users:
rename Theme.txt to gxtheme.cfg

If you dont rename that file, your themes will not work.

The loader also now uses GXglobal.cfg instead of global.cfg and GXgamesettings.cfg instead of gamesettings.cfg

So make sure you rename accordingly, otherwise your settings will not be read. Or if you update to the newest rev and it overwrites your old file, you will have to input your new settings, then they will be saved under the new GXglobal.cfg file

So DeakPhreak, for now you should have each user edit their themes on your site and either include both theme.txt and gxtheme.cfg files, or rename theme.txt to gxtheme.cfg

I would recommend just having both files for now, until majority of users are on the newest revisions of the loader.

Hopes this helps everyone out, If any questions PM me
