Oh, only that there are two entries for the skoda coppa. 
Not that it matters, I just figured that you might have a soft spot for 'em.

So glad you like it, even though it wasn't originally mine, but I'll happily take the credit. One problem I can see here though, is with your track record with GO666's are you sure you wan't to be messing with it already, touch wood?
 |
Never fear, it's alright - I cleaned up all the red stuff AND made it a bit bigger too on my version.
You should see what I've done to the 920 already. First, I've got the pgpsw cameras on it, with the Liz and Siren spoken warnings. Then I've got the pgpsw Verifiers cameras on it, with home made warnings by the grandchildren ("Wake up Dennis, Verifier check ahead"). Then I've still got TomTom's free cameras on it - six types (allegedly) with different boings, hoots, cows, cuckoos, bugles and bells to differentiate (but for the life of me I can't remember what each sound is for and at least two Specs cameras gave different warnings today!!). So today's 300 mile trip was enlivening - not least because I have another two GOs doing the same - sort of front windscreen drivers!! Fortunately, TomTom don't give out their mobile cameras with the free initial set and they were missing virtually all the specs on the M4 (and still showing one on the M25). I'm wondering if perhaps the GOs break because they can't stand the sound of each other? Certainly Vera said a naughty word the other day when the 920 first gave voice, arguing with the 720s!

Sounds like a veritable Noahs Ark, or should that be Moses with the parting of grey hairs!

Hi slickrick101, Welcome to the forum.
That cursor doesn't look to be 80x80 pixels. Resizing it may do it some justice. Also I would recomend puting a one pixle white border around the ship or car, which will make it more visable on the sreen. Otherwise nice effort. |
With this being my first effort at it I saw the white line but wasn't sure about it's necessity. Any easy way to add it? Also does is have to be 80x80 and mine is actually 80x60 the image wasn't square and I wasn't sure if the size had to be 80x80 or just highth or witdth. I've seem some that seem bigger than that so I'm unsure. I want to give back and I'm farily computer savey. Thanks for the help. |

Yes it does need to be 80x80 as it would seem they won't work if you don't, as some have just dicovered. Also the white line is not nessesary but recomended as it defines the edges of the object. However there is no easy way to add the white line except to draw around the object pixel by pixel with your favorite paint program. It's not as dawnting as it may seem as once you have done it once or twice you'll see that it can be done quite quickly without making too many mistakes.

Thanks for the info. I'll see if I can't update the photo's to these requirements. |

Nice. But it would be better on screen if the ship or car is seen from the rear as like your other attempt but a little higher, Like this...
To become something like this...
save as .bmp
enjoy

Nice suggestion, and nicely applied.
garlonlarkyn, if you haven't already done so, send two copies to darren and he'll post them on the cursor download page. Just send a .jpg and .bmp to his email. darrenATpocketgpsworldDOTcom
Thanks for the input.
