    It looks very good now, thank you!

    I've noticed something though which seems like a bug in LaunchELF. When the amount of free space is written in the top right corner, like [2.3MB free], the background under this text seems to be shifted one or two pixels up.

    Yes, I've noticed this myself with both my skins. I didn't say anything about it since it's just a small visual flaw and nothing major, but yea it would be nice if they can fix it.

    ps2dragon....

    I think I found my problem.... You mentioned something about .jpgs made with photoshop.... I made my .jpg in photoshop and need to know all the steps you used to get the .jpg to work.

    I think you said something about saving a photshop picture by flattening the image then saving as .bmp. What program did you use to convert the .bmp to .jpg?? Also, I should save my photoshop picture with the quality setting set to 2... correct??

    Thanks in advance for your help.

    farfromover, that post you read was with the older version of uLE v3.51 (skin version) and v3.52 (I think), but was definitely fixed in v3.53. Although, the newer version of uLE v3.58 and above require you to have your skins set at a certain size (which i've already mentioned here).

    Hope that helps, if not let me know.

    EDIT: yes, ACDSee is what I originally used before it was fixed, you can see that from that old post I mentioned. Is your image size 640x480?

    Yes, that is my image size (640x480)....

    Are you sure the resolution quality setting in photoshop still doesn't need to be set to 2?

    Can you post a copy of your .cnf file?? I'm running a v4 Ps2 that is NTSC.... Is there anything I should change in the .cnf file to make this work?? I'm using uLaunchELF v.3.59....

    The image doesn't show up in the preview or the main after applying the filepath..... (I tried placing the image on my MC and HD, and seem to work)

    Thanks again for your help, when I get home tonight I'll try out one of your Planet .jpg's and see if it works....

    Ok, I attached a copy of my .CNF with all the same settings I'm using in uLE v3.59. Can you please upload a copy of your skin that isn't working, so I can test it and see if we can eliminate the cause? I'm using Photoshop CS, and using the "Save For Web..." option instead of the regular "Save As..." option, but that shouldn't make any difference.

    I know that sometimes when I use FTP to transfer my skin, it sometimes doesn't work either (error in transfer). So it could also be that your memory card is too full to store the image or some error occurs during transfer.

    Thanks I'll try out that .CNF file..... I'll be sure to post up my skin tonight when I get home for you, so you can try it out and see if you can troubleshoot it for me....

    Thanks a ton, i'll be sure to check the capacity on my MC. The .jpg I have is around 100kB, although it should have worked when used with the HD. It might have been that my resolution is super high.

    I had a go with making skins. The choice of colors here makes a big difference since the background is grayscale. Here are some very colorful ones which I like:
    Code:
    R:  00  00  FF  41
    G:  00  60  00  AA
    B:  00  60  A0  FF
    
    GUI_Col_1_ABGR = 00000000
    GUI_Col_2_ABGR = 00606000
    GUI_Col_3_ABGR = 00A000FF
    GUI_Col_4_ABGR = 00FFAA41
    This skin is for PAL displays.
