Hey there. The filepicker also works when choosing an attachment in email. Sorry to just jump in here like this, but I've been following these developments too. Just TOO COOL! great work.

Not sure. I've just installed your latest theme and I'm at work with a Touchstone on my desk. I'll leave my phone off of it and let you know a little later.

Holy Cow Batman! This is sweet. And, I remembered about the update to Internalz. I emailed both the image and the patch file to myself, and installed from there.

Battery Life does seem to be a tiny bit shorter with this on the phone. But, not bad. Especially if you have Touchstones around.

I have done some overnight battery tests with the launcher patch.

Without the patch, I average 1.5 % loss per hour. That's running at Screenstate 500/900, so the during this time it is only OC'd for a few seconds of the 5 hour tests I've given it.

With the patch, I have an average 2.6 % loss per hour, same settings and environment as the above test.

Not too much of a difference, though I worry what it is while in use. When I check Govnah, the load average is pretty high while the patch is installed, all the time too. In my experience I have all cards closed but Govnah, and the graph will be at least half way or more showing the purple as the load amount. I cannot begin to understand the numbers so I never bothered recording them.

Though for these tests I did use a rather larger GIF, this one to be exact...

I just installed this patch and put the image in the wallpapers folder, I named it "top-bar-bg.gif"

It did not work for me. I do not notice anything in the top bar, with or without the launcher up. I do not have the launcher patch installed anymore, incase it is dependent on that to work.

I checked the phone with WebOSQI, it lists the patch there as top-bar-bg-gif. Something has my phone working hard in the background according to Govnah.

if you typed in .gif delete that then try it again as you did the first time.
Edit: Oh and did you drag the gif into wallpapers or .wallpapers?
