Ok, the BMP to MSK Converter Utility v1.0 (beta) is done!

It only took about 10 hours! hehe

Here's a link to where you can download it:

Please remember that I can't provide much support for this and it was designed for intermediate to advanced computer users.


Happy masking!

Charles, thanks for the time and effort you put into this.

I initially had a question about the finding the initial instructions which are provided during installation, but I found the readme file. Q9300 2.5 GHz
4 GB Ram
Nvidia 9800 GT

Yes, sorry I didn't make that clear.

For the benefit of others, after installation, find the readme.rtf file in the folder where the utility was installed. It has general instructions for using the tool.

By default it is here:

C:\Program Files\Charles Forsyth\BMP to Mask Converter Utility

@CharlesF

Kudos for finding this out

and thanks for the conversion tool!!!

Yes - great work Charles... and very much appreciated by anyone with the urge to create a custom mask. I certainly wouldn't count myself in the "Advanced Computer User" category, but I don't think I'll have any difficulty using it with the help of your ReadMe file.

BTW - I popped onto yor website after downloading one of the masks you made & was intrigued (I suppose that's the word) by the Latin (or whatever language it is) on your Dev. Journal page. With the little that remains in my brain from school boy Latin classes, I thought I'd give translation a shot. Nah - no go. All I could work out was that someone was swimming (and probably sinking) in the sea, someone was in pain because they were temporarily envious. None of that made much sense, so I figured it must be your own Da Vinci code.

Now - if you really wanted to confuse people, you could have used that to write the read me file!

Anyway, Charles, well done.

Cheers -

Tony

Tread gently and you'll hear the daisies grow...

Such collections of latin words are commonly used as text example or placeholders in Content Management Systems.

they mean nothing : Or perhaps "no useful info here, please go away"

What Antiekeradio said. That's just filler text. Commonly used by programmers as a placeholder.

Please excuse my site. I have not had time to updated it in quite some time. In fact I know the nav-menu is broken in IE8 and I still haven't had time to fix it.

Just so everyone knows... I have completed work on version 2.0. (another 12 hours)

This version is even easier to use and actually creates your .png thumbnails for you too!!

I suggest we stop replying to this post and post replies to the one linked above. (so this one doesn't keep getting bumped)

Moderator: I wonder if you'd be willing to make the other post sticky?
