flupke Posted December 13, 2005 Share Posted December 13, 2005 I understand that XPero does not waste his time with designing icons that will never look really nice because only 16 colors are supported but I made a custom batmeter bitmap.The first is only a simplified version of the original and the second one is more modern but looks a bit flat.I'm not a good graphic designer so if anyone has some good idees for this...batmeter_groot_1.bmpbatmeter_groot_2.bmpbatmeter_klein_1.bmpbatmeter_klein_2.bmp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keytotime Posted December 13, 2005 Share Posted December 13, 2005 If you could make a bit more rounded it would look better, great start. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Godzilla Posted December 14, 2005 Share Posted December 14, 2005 I just want post a thread like "the energy-icons are not xpized". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flupke Posted December 14, 2005 Author Share Posted December 14, 2005 @ GodzillaThere was already a thread in that direction. In one of the XPize versions XPero did include new batmeter bitmaps but most people didn't like it so it was not continued. It looked like the batmeter that is now in Vista. Something plain, white, flat. Even in Windows Vista Microsoft did not add true color support for the batmeter, bootscreen and management console but made the bootscreen and batmeter all white.By the way: does someone know if the Management Console 3.0, which is now in Pre-release state only availeble in 3 languages, has support for true color icons?@ keytotimeHow can it be made more rounded? Edge smoothing and stuff is not possible here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EchoNoise Posted December 15, 2005 Share Posted December 15, 2005 I liked the flat white version... Does anybody have the resource files for it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
