    Well if you have the smaller version of the image, then you should be able to make an ImageGuide for it pretty easy with the normal highlights... I think that would look pretty good. I have a lot of ImageGuides I plan to make, but I need to find some time since I try to make the official ones look as good as possible and that requires custom highlights and such... but I think you can make a good one until then just by dragging and dropping the highlights on the ImageGuide designer.

    i didnt get how to do transparency in custom highlights? well i dont like to use 8 bit pixelized gifs i prefer png but pgp dont support png (btw its a little suggestion for todo list) but when i trying to import 32 bit bmp (24 rgb + 8 bit alpha) i have no transparency so every button looks like a square, i just realised little trick to draw without transparency but its 2 hard 2 match pixel to pixel when adding em on background layer in pgp.
    btw if i select 400x290 picture allways will be so big? anything with autoresize? as i seen every imageguide here have same resolution (can u tell me about default recomended resolution?

    Sorry... didn't see that last post you made back then. Anyway, Pinnacle handles ALL the transparency stuff itself. So that means you don't need to use your own files with transparency. Just use a 24-bit BMP, and Pinnacle will take the pixel in the upper-left corner and make ALL that color transparent. So this way people do NOT need to know anything about image formats and transparency stuff... not everyone has photoshop and knows how to do that sort of thing. That's why Pinnacle's system is pretty cool the way it work to save people this trouble and also using this method Pinnacle "cuts" the pixels out of the picture... meaning it's not that they are see-through transparent... it's that Pinnacle actually will "cut" the picture out of the transparent background so the image that you drag and drop on the ImageGuide designer is NOT always a square. Hopefully that makes sense. So the way I suggest to make custom highlights with a 1 pixel border around the image... so then Pinnacle will take the top-left pixel and make that border and any other pixels that color transparent (or "cut" as described above).

    Logitech ChillStream p

    I have the Logitech Desktop Pro mouse/keyboard which is essentially the same thing. I dont use the extra buttons - even in Windows.

    It works quite well with the standard keys and standard mouse functions including scrolling.

    There is no way to montior the battery state - except youll know that you need to replace them when the mouse or keyboard stop working.
