Internet tab globe

kroewe · #1 (**permalink**) 04-26-2010, 10:27 PM

I am looking for a globe to replace the one on the internet tab.
i have searched all over and haven't found a solution.
i know it is possible because i have found a few but they are theme specific and i am trying to change the one on my stock 6.5 sprint ROM.
someone please point me in the right direction...

thanks for the assist, but i think i shoulda been a little clearer...
sorry, i did not mean the icon on the tab, i was meaning the globe on the page when you select the internet tab...
i do however like the antique slider, i checked it out yesterday

i thought u meant the globe above the words "launch browser" on the internet tab page .. if thats not what u meant sry lol .... but when i installed that slider it changed that for me where as none others did which is 1 more reason i liked it other then its looks.

actually, i did mean that globe...i have just never seen a slider change this either, and i have went through a lot of sliders.
very interesting...
i might check it out, however, still looking for changes that i can make independently.

thanks for the help mlin. i got it halfway figured out.
oddly, the manila file editing turned out easier than i thought, and that part i got right, only to learn that my knowledge of gimp and photoshop suck even worse.
thanks for the assist santod.
posting the globe i wish to use, if you can just doctor the image up and set the background transparency...
you can cab if you want, if not, i will edit it into the manila file myself.

Here you go bud, on my way out shortly, so I have only edited the image for you, for it to have a transparent background.
Just convert this to the manila file and you should be set.

thanks, worked out perfect.
i need to get the hang of gimp, the transparent background was the only part i couldnt figure out.
i did get it resized and edited into the respective manila files, and then cabbed it up just to learn how to do that too.
thanks for all the help, one step closer to creating some of my own mods!
