    i dunno about the font, but u can just put any jpg or bmp on your USB, MC or HDD to load it as background.

    go to screen settings to insert the path of the picture.

    select a file with circle or cross then press R1 to open menu.

    I'm afraid I don't understand what you mean by "font picture". If you mean a picture as in backdrop ("skin") yes that's possible and settable in the Config menu. A JPEG file of dimensions 640x480 is what you should use for good results. If you literally mean setting another font: no. It's not possible and AFAIK likely never will be. uLE is an ELF-launcher and file browser plus some more goodies, why would you feel a great need to set another font? The default one is Good Enough(TM) and besides you're not going to spend that much time i uLE anyway (no offence meant dlanor )

    Second , is there any way , whit the help of ulaunch , to copy things (like dot elf) from ur usb mass to ur hdd.
    Yes. This is partly what uLE is made for. Just do a copy(cut)-paste operation in uLE from mass: to hdd:. N.B. I don't have a HDD so I cannot be more specific on the exact steps and prerequisites, but other ppl in this forum can.

    I now i can boot an elf from usb, but i dont whant my usb key stick in my ps2. I now about the ftp method (this is the one i use) but if u now a way to copy from usb to hdd tell me please
    Hm, if you literally mean boot the PS2 from a USB-device, and e.g. load uLaunchELF directly from it, that isn't a very easy or straightforward thing to do to my present knowledge. Caveat: I've never tried it and don't know the details on how to get it working, though I know it is possible. I have a mod chip which supports Dev.olution mode, i.e. boot directly from MC0 (Memoy Card in slot 1).

    If you mean start an .elf from a USB-mem stick from within uLE (the mass: device) that's very straightforward, yes. I'm guessing you mean the latter, but it's just a feeling I get. Normally the boot process, i.e. the start of uLE in this case, would be from MC (Memory Card) or HDD for many ppl, since that's a function built into many mod-chips like DMS3,4 Matrix Infinity et al.

    Cheers,
    /M

    If you want to learn more about uLaunchELF, you can start by reading the last version of the documentation located at this thread. I know it's not completely up to date, but it will give you a good idea of how uLE works.

    As for how to create uLE Skins, you can read my template_readme.txt, over at this thread. Hope that takes a lot of time off your info searches tonight...

    Edit: I just updated my signature to include these links as well, since I usually refer to them whenever someone is looking for info.

    Cheers,
