Hi everyone

I'm having some problems when creating my own Startmenu button. I'll post it here:


As you can see, I've added that little bar on top.
Now to the problem at hand.
The image gets cropped all weird when used as button.

Here, look:


Doesn't matter what size I input in the options later, it's still like that.

What could be the cause?

You have to adjust your descriptor pixels because you only have 5 frames in the image.
See the attached file.

Thanks Ivo!

So to make things clear, for each frame there's one pixel added to the descriptor bar?

No, not at all. The color values in the top row of pixels are used to describe the number of frames, the sequence of the animation and the speed.
