[REL] new radio bitmap

[castorp345]

hi folks,

'was playing around with image files in photoshop for another project and was 'inspired' to replace our venerable UserRadio.dds with one [that's more historicaly accurate?] based on a CRV-46155 set (see here for more good info ==> http://www.radioblvd.com/WWII-PostWar%20Hamgear.htm ). This is a simple replacement for the original UserRadio.dds file in the data\menu\gui folder, so remember to backup your orginal in the event you don't like this one. All the original functionality is retained, though i've removed the appearance of the original play controls (you'll still get the tool tips however, just in case).

get it here if you like ==> http://rapidshare.com/files/95612817/UserRadio.dds.html

and with Fred8615's JSGME packaging and Tei's fine rework of it with visual play controls ==>

Thanks, Castorp:up: That stock radio graphic was getting on my nerves. Since I use the radio so much, I'll enjoy having something realistic to look at:arrgh!:

very cool.......:|\\

I love it! I'm going to create a JSGME version so I don't have to worry about backing up the original. Is it okay with you if I post that on my Filefront page?

[castorp345]

I love it!

thanks!

That is so cool I took down my version and will point to yours in the other thread!:up:

BTW, I saw you used my readme verbatim, with only a short note about adding the buttons, along with adding your name and e-mail. I don't mind, but I think it would look better if you took out the paragraph about the "invisible buttons" and perhaps replaced it with text saying you added the buttons. You should also just replace my name and e-mail with yours.

Ok, Fred, you're right... :yep: "invisible buttons" now visible :D
No problem, already ready.
