Hi there
I still don't have my R4, but, as far as I know, it is able to display those nice little icons, that come with some rom releases, just like the DS-X.
My question is: Where can I get icons like those, if no one is bundled with the used rom. I already used Google and Altavista image-search but the needed size (32x32, isn't it?) is very rare.
Of course, I could make an icon myself, but I don't think that it would become very good-looking. The problem I am thinking of is th following: When you just take a packshot and resize it to 32x32 Pixels, you probably wouldn't recognize it anymore, because it would be a too complex image for too less pixels.
Because of this, all rom-icons I have seen so far show a simple thing or charakter form the game, with a 1-color background and still look good.
Here is an example (the corresponding game is Electroplankton):
I know, that this isn't very important, but i just love it, when every game has its own icon in the flashcart's GUI.
Tanks in advance

PS: Sorry for my poor English, the rather stupid question and for not finding a proper category for this (i chose the R4 category because I am going to use the icons with an R4)
