    Amiga PSP theme

    Hey guys (and gals, ).

    I want to make a custom XMB, with the theme being, you guessed it, . The problem is sourcing icons / pics. Any of you able to supply me with high qaulity pics, so i can make them into icons. They have to be bigger then 128 x 128 in size, I was thinking about using OS3.9 icons, as i dont know where to get OS4.0 icons, never seen OS 4 yet, .

    Anyways, let me know what you think.

    On a side note, i would really like to make the network icon PSPUAE, . So you click and it loads PSPUAE, but this is a side project.

    To add, decided to mess with icon launching as a test, to see how icons are made.

    Took a pic off an amiga, converted to a PSP XMB icon, then added it to the topmenu.rco, I then altered xmb using a prx that launches files in a certain location, using an icon. I replaced the network update icon with my amiga pic, after flashign topmenu to flash0, i booted and seen network update was now an amiga pic. I then copied PSPUAE to prx location folder. Now when clicking amiga pic, launches PSPUAE instantly, no more crappy PSP logo, .

    I will get deeper into this, as i said though any pics would be great. Need to workout what to use for each icon.

    Not sure I have any icons that would be big enough for this. It is an interesting idea and would look great if the whole XMB looked like a Workbench desktop.

    Messing around with the XMB icons and look is one area I've not tried doing as I quite like the original Sony icons, but it would be great to see some screenshots once you have more done.

    If you haven't played a classic game in years, it's never too late to start!

    Aye, I will try to get my capture plugin working, so i can grab a shot of the pspuae xmb launcher.

    As there is no way i can brick now (unless get a hardware failure), im happy to mess with flash0 more freely now. Can just use my kids psp to change my batt to unbrick, , if i brick, aint happened yet (touches wood).

    I could do a workbench clone, which 1 though? OS 3.1, OS 3.9?

    Personally I would love to see a 1.3 one, just because that is truly retro, but the 3.1 theme is also retro enough to look cool.

    Either would look cool.

    Anything, just so long as you don't need a Kickstart UMD (Now that would be true retro-modern chic)
    This is not a signature

    Im going to try and get something together for tonight. Now I know how it all works, still unsure how to move X-Menu to top of screen, but could just leave it there. Have already thought of what to do, .

    The only negative aspect of having the menu at the bottom is that it looks like a Mac! That will never do!
