HouseBot

Hi all, have found some images/buttons i want to convert for use in a theme.
What format does housebot like. I have tried to use them direct but only half the image is shown and the other half when the button is pressed.
I have a attached one of the images for you to look at so you can see what i mean.
Thanks Mark..

Either JPG or PNG (maybe even BMP -> not sure)
You see half the image because a HouseBot button has an upstate and a downstate both in the same image. Lets say your image is 128 x 128 pixels and you want to make a button out of it. Then create a new image of 256 x 128 and put the image twice in the new button image next to eachother. If you up the contrast a bit of the right image you should even get a good downstate. A program can be downloaded (somewhere here I suppose) called imagedub. With it you can create buttons from images. Or you can do it manually using some drawing program.

You can also check out the Control Images and Common Button Image Format sections in the HouseBot online help for some additional details.

Also, see this post. I have attached some channel buttons you may find useful (towards the bottom).
