I want to place a background on my PSP that has white on it, but when I try and place it in my flash0 the white turns to black, how can I fix this?

robedom 1, I don't exactly understand what you mean.

You're flashing a custom 01-12.bmp ?

Upload it if you want and i'll take a look at it.

Yes, here it is: http://www.sendspace.com/file/mjdv9j

When I place it in the resource folder the white part of the picture changes to black with a white outline of the image.

Depending on the theme you're using, you might get corrupt or disappearing icons in the XMB.

Okay I have the background working but a new problem has arisen when I am trying to make custom Icons using photoshop.


Here is the first letter in my topmenu Plugin, it worked to perfection.

Now I tried to do the same thing with the second letter which was an "I" and it came out like this.

I have no idea why, I did everything the same. They are both .png's. Any ideas?

You're getting image corruption in RCO Editor's preview window after injecting?

What's the dimension of the .png ?

Try changing the image dimensions to 62x62 or 64x64 and inject it.

Awesome! It worked, why didn't it work at 61 x 61 though?

Occasionally you'll run into some problems with the dimension override feature in 1.15c.

Before injecting the image, check the dimensions in the lower right corner in RCO Editor. In RCO Editor 1.15c, you don't get an invalid dimensions error when injecting an image with invalid dimensions. Open the same rco in RCO Editor 1.14d. When trying to inject an image with invalid dimensions, you will get the message that "Width must be divisible by 16 and height must be divisible by 8":

Notice the dimensions in the lower right corner. Dimensions are 48x16, but visible dimensions are 45x14. The dimensions are correct for the image, but the visible dimensions are not:

Open the same rco in RCO Editor 1.15c, and it only shows visible dimensions of the image, not the actual dimensions:

Now i'm just going to extract the tiff .bmp with RCO Editor 1.15c, recolor it blue in photoshop, and inject it.

I haven't made any changes to the dimensions.

Corruption:

Notice the dimensions of the extracted tiff .bmp:

48x16:

Now open the .bmp in photoshop and check the dimensions.

45x14:

I'm just going to change the dimensions of the tiff .bmp in photoshop to 44x14.

Now inject the 44x14 tiff .bmp into the rco:

Notice i didn't have to increase the size of the tiff .bmp to "actual dimensions" of 48x16, i just had to decrease the visible width dimensions by one pixel, to 44x14.

As long as the images you're injecting have visible dimensions of even numbers, you shouldn't have any problems with corruption.
