Need some help with Logos - Page 2

I think you have to unzip the pack, then put the files in the MAT2 folder.

Did not notice that it is a zip file. I got the logos unzipped and in the MAT folder but the logos are not showing up, just the one that I tried to import, which did not work because the picture wasn't good.

Is there a setting somewhere or are the logos supposed to automatically show up?

Sorry, I'm new to this.

Thanks!

Because you tried to import one, you kind of messed it up. Now you just have to delete one file from the MAT folder, but I can't remember which one. Someone else will remember and chime in shortly, hopefully. Once that file is deleted, then all the logos you put in the folder should show up in the crystal. The import logo button is only for black and white bmps.

For whatever it's worth, here is a note I made for myself to remind me how to make logos for MA Time 2. I made a bunch of logos and they all look good to me. ========

To make Serene Screen logo. Make a good BMP or JPG about 200x200 in size. Open it using Photoshop 7.

Layer -> New layer from background. OK.
View->Zoom In twice to make it 300% then use Magic Wand tool to select first part of image. For subsequent sections, use Right mouse click and Add to Selection... until all segments are marked (the segments will have blinking dotted lines around them.)
Select->Inverse.
Edit->Clear
Select->Deselect.
Layer->Layer Style-> Bevel & Emboss.
Style = Pillow Emboss.
Direction = Down.
Angle = 45.
OK.

Image->canvas size to change the size to 256 x 256 pixels.

File->Save for Web.
Settings: PNG-24 and make sure Transparency box is Ckecked.

Photoshop 7. If you need help and do not want to clog this forum, you can email me privately at lannp@macsystems.com, or if you publish here a logo 200x200 in BMPm of JPG, I can do it for you.
