Ok cool.

So I've found some new buttons I'd like to use with online videos and my emulators. Where do I put the files I've downloaded so I can select them in the Titan editor?

Can't find a folder for online videos?

You need to use Titan Editor to select the custom images you have. You can find Titan Editor in the MePo config > plugins

Hi,

does anybody have a template for a "Titan Extended Button" with shadow and the dark area at the bottom of the picture?
Like the sample attached.

thx!

EDIT: sorry, I already found it in the first post

EDIT2: Okay it's not so easy as I thought. Does anybody have a nice button for "Amazon Prime" and "SkyGo"?

    No template but I do have script that allows creation of buttons - examples.

    BNT_amazon_prime.png BNT_Sky_Go.png


    Script uses ImageMagick.[assume SRC image called Sky_Go.jpg].

    ------------------------------------------------------------------
    convert Sky_Go.jpg -resize 400x285\! resize.png
    convert -size 400x285 xc:black -fill white -stroke black -draw "roundrectangle 1,1 399,284 80,80" mask.png
    convert resize.png -fill '#00000030' -opaque none -draw "rectangle 0,243 399,284" filled.png
    convert filled.png mask.png -alpha Off -compose CopyOpacity -composite no_shadow.png
    convert no_shadow.png \( +clone -background black -shadow 30x5+8+8 \) +swap -background none -layers merge +repage shadow.png
    convert shadow.png -resize 400x285\! BNT_Sky_Go.png
    ------------------------------------------------------------------

    Full script [allows for 9 separate parameters to be changed] and tidy's up after itself - requires Unix environment [Cygwin] but could readily be converted to other scripts quite easily:)
    NOTE - 1st 100 lines are just support stuff to allow for flexibility and human error:eek:, if your using fixed values you can dispense with most of the code:)
