[Help Please] Simple Graphics Request

Hi
I am using the Blackberry Redux theme and have a problem.
The problem is that the phone in the upper-left hand corner allows me to choose the volume profile I would like, however, there is no icon for Vibrate Profile. I have tried to contact the design, but have had no luck.
I also tried to create my own (spent 15 minutes) in Paint, but that didn't turn out transparent and ruined the whole theme.
Is there anyway someone can take one of the images below and change it to vibrate? It does not have to be fancy or anything. The first one is for "Normal/Loud" profile and the second one if for "Silent" profile.
I would greatly appreciate is someone can help me out with this so the theme can be close to perfect. Thank you very much in advance to anyone who helps me. Thank you!

Possible suggestion:
Since the first image (currently used for Loud/Normal Profile) already looks like its for vibrate, mayone someone can change it so that the noise lines are coming out of the earpiece and mouthpiece. Then i can just use that for the Loud/Normal Icon and then use the current Lound/normal icon for vibrate.
Just a suggestion. i am not picky, I just want to finish making the theme perfect before school starts and I don't have any time to change my phone around. Thank you.

You need paint.net (free) or photoshop (not free) or gimp (free) to edit images that allow transparency.
PS i recommend paint.net

i'm sorry but i don't really have th time.
you can use any software that supports the use of the png format.

just 2minutes in Fireworks

Thank you so much!
I tried it, but it isn't transparent.
Is there anyway you can make it .PNG format? thank you

it actually IS transparent.. but it's not a regular JPG file.. it's an arithmetic jpeg.. which is rarely supported.
you can use photoshop elements to decode it.

reup in a few minutes try it as png, dunno why it is a jpg..

[MORPH] Beam Me Up! download/upload icons

This is a Morph file for CM 5.0.6.
The icon is a guy being sucked up into a UFO when a file is being downloaded or uploaded.
Downloads = Green beam
Uploads = Red beam
UPDATED: 4/24/10 - Tweaked by britoso.

Do you have any screenshots available?

Not currently, I have to reinstall the SDK on my comp and I have been too lazy to do it. I will try to get some up...

Really neat and original. Will try these out in a bit.

You have a bunch of additional files in the morph. Aren't only the 12 .pngs needed?
Make sure you add it to the Morphs thread.
edit: trying it down, downloading earth-live wallpaper (its big) to see it

I am counting only 12. Are you sure you're looking at the right thing?

Think he's referring to the layout and xml folders (that have files in them) that probably don't need to be included.

Ahh... thanks for pointing that out. I will try to figure out what is necessary (still learning) and take out what I don't need. Thanks again.

One more thing, in both upload/download cases the stick person is seen moving up to the ship.
I renamed the 6 download images so that the guy moves downward for downloads and upward for uploads. (attached for convenience)

Great idea! I have made the changes in the morph file and re-uploaded. Thanks!

[Bootanimation](s) Coming soon! Lots of bootanimations! :D

After receiving help from marccramer, and almost every opped person in #liberatedAria, and some other users such as mudknot...
I present my first bootanimation that works, and it's one for the ladies:
(note: it is properly resized, and the logo in the lower right is removed from the animation, I'd figured I'd just share my source files that I'm using directly )

"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
I'll do something about the large ass preview once I get some more that I've been looking at done.
I did this on linux, and this is what I did to achieve 0 compression:
my working directory, as it's easier for me is this:
Code:
[B]/home/<username>/bootanimation/<project title>/[/B]
Here I keep my source files, and use it as a workspace,
Code:
[B]/home/<username>/bootanimation/<project title>/output[/B]
this is where I put my android folder or part0 folder, depending on what I felt like calling it at the moment and desc.txt.
Next I run these commands(I'll show my exact steps I used):
Code:
[B]cd ~/bootanimation/Angel/output/[/B] (in case you aren't in your output DIR already)
[B]zip -0 bootanimation.zip ./android/* desc.txt[/B] (replace android with the name of your folder with pictures and duplicate that part if you're doing a 2 part animation ex: ./android1/* ./android2/*)
[B]adb remount[/B] (assuming you've added ADB to your path)
[B]adb push bootanimation.zip /system/media[/B] (or /data/local depending on your rom I think)
[B]adb reboot[/B]
Hope this helps for anyone with Linux, who just couldn't get zero compression on their zips and were unsure of a clean way to zip and push, and were too afraid to ask I hope this helps someone!
MORE BOOTANIMATIONS TO COME: especially anime ones

You think yyou can make me one?

Glad to hear you got them working

----------------------------------
Here's a work in progress of this converted to a bootscreen:
I'm not really happy with the current result... but I think it'll turn out better second runthrough...

INFINITY
Was browsing deviant art, and came across this cool mp4,
http://browse.deviantart.com/film/animation/2d/abstrexper/?order=9&offset=24&offset=72#/d1e47is
I won't post a preview, as going to the above link suffices, and all credit goes to the original author of this animation, I just packaged it into a bootscreen! this one's rather large at 16mb folks, so I've hosted it at my dropbox, to which all boot animations will shortly move,
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/1767382/Bootanimations/Infinity/bootanimation.zip
Here you go, enjoy it !

So you know a guide on how to package bootanimations?

Though my bootscreen version is set a little faster =) Feel free to adjust it to whatever speed you want!
I think this makes a lolworthy/great bootanimation to show friends.

[Bootanimation] Android Handheld Portal Device :)

Since I live in Switzerland and thus don't have anything to do with AT&T I've been looking to replace that rather "meh" stock AT&T-bootanimation.
I've been looking for a worthy replacement and stumbled over a few Portal-inspired animations. I decided to stick with that theme but haven't really fond anything suitable. What I've found however is this:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EhUknTxm1SA
which basically inspired me to create my own animation in a similar style...
previews:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
I've also packed all the motorola-stuff in front of my animation, so only the AT&T part was replaced...
Suggestions would be much appreciated
PS: I'm aware this thing is quite the monster but be aware that it is an already heavily compressed version
Oh, and one more thing, dawg: I heard you like zips, so I put a zip inside your zip so you can unzip while you unzip...
Anyways The bootanimation.zip is inside the attached zip and needs to go to /system/media/

Thanks, it looks great! However I think I'll stick with my boot animation of Andy blowing up a silver Apple
Also, if you really want to compress it, then use the free application 7zip (for windows). I can get it down to about 4 mb using the .7z format.

When I wrote compressed I was referring to the images inside the zip The original used losless png-files and ended up being bigger than 20MB
Rest assured I was using 7zip to zip the zipwise uncompressed bootanimation.zip which was apparently just a little too big to upload

[Q] Boot audio

Hi all, just got my HOS and am loving it so far (and our community ) and I got my boot animation and down animation changed no problem on stock rom, s-off. Now that leaves me with the boot audio, I want to simply use the htc_boot.mp3 that's already in the resources folder instead of the T-mobile one, I changed the default.xml to
audio="/system/customize/resource/htc_boot.mp3
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
and restarted to test, no audio, then I went back into the xml and noticed right next to the audio string
audiostart="TMOUS"
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
which I believed was the start of the old boot animation, so I changed it from TMOUS to TrueBlack (my bootanimation name) and tested, still no luck, so I'm at a loss here, I figure it has something to do with the audiostart= line but I wanted to come here and ask before I messed with it anymore, any help would be appreciated! And I'm glad to be a part of this community now
My customize.xml currently-
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Also for those of you who haven't done it yet, I just changed the line at the bottom fps="15" from 15 to 30 and the bootup&down looks 20x smoother.

Figured it out, for those of you who'd like to know, on the line
audiostart="TMOUS"
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
simply remove the value, making it
audiostart=""
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
and it'll work to whatever you set the boot audio as.

You could have done it the much easier way and renamed the htc_boot to whatever the name of your previous startup sound was. Saves you going through xmls

aww but that's no fun lol, sometimes the harder path is easier for me, besides I wanted to keep the files original, as why I put TrueBlack.zip and TrueBlackDown.zip in resource instead of just deleting the tmobile ones and naming them after that. An OCD I have kinda :s
