Please let me know if you experience any problems with these as I am still refining the code and my process for streamlining the development of this.

Also, please remember this is an "application" so if you have an IT Policy that restricts installing third party applications you will not be able install without removing the IT Policy.

I still have about 7 more that I will be giving away at this time so keep the requests coming.

As soon as you get me the icon and the specific address you want I will be happy to make this for you. Not sure if you have a m. or wap. site for better viewing on the blackberry.

I've noticed that my image has a white BG now, and I believe it was originally transparent BG.

I will redownload the icon and recompile to see if it might have changed during my prep. Thanks for letting me know.

No problem, I know you had originally asked for 32x32, and I sent 36x36, but they have worked well for me in the past at that size. If that seems to be the issue I will resize it and send you a 32x32

That was the problem. Please post a 32x32 version so I can try both.

Nick,

I just tried the original and it works just fine in the 36x36 size (a little large for my taste but to each his own) but it is still a white BG. I did not even open the file in case there was some issue with opening it in my png software removing the transparency and it still shows up with a white background.

I am happy to recompile if you can provide an updated icon otherwise I probably won't post an update because there is not real change to warrant a the use of a signing key unless having a 36x36 is that important to you in which case I will re-sign and distribute.

I would prefer to figure out how to get the transparent working before I re-sign though as that is really what you are looking for.

I sent you a PM so we can take this offline to get it right and we can repost here when any update is final.
