Should I save the screenshots as a different format?  The screenshot utility for the xbox devkit saves to .bmp and I then convert them.

If possible, save them to png.
If you still have bmp snaps, you can convert them to png. (lossless)

As much as I like the black keyboard it seems like it is a little difficult to see on darker screens..

True. This really could be an issue.
Actually i'm slightly sloping to the stone cold side.. laugh.gif

If the sample Frank sent was PNG24Bits then the format should be no problem.  Cause the one he sent me was fine.  Although it uses a bit more memory than the default and the stone cold ones.

Yeap. It was 24Bits. Only problem could be the dithering.

Hey I was wondering, you said that you manually made them light transparency.
(which is good), but how this affect to the sun keys upper right corner? If user
presses the ex. the left button, what happens? Invisible keyboard? Maybe not? huh.gif

Hehe... that is how I "manually" made them light transparency, with the sun keys, before taking the snapshot.

ok.  For now stone cold it is..

Hey guys...

Let's go with the GRAY version.
It is the best one.
It will work on BLACK and LIGHT background screens!
Right, MadMad?

Weird how the last post date for this topic (cospefogo's last post) is all wacked out.  laugh.gif

Yes, currently I'm going with the stone cold one since (as nice as it is) the black one does not show up well on darker screen.  sad.gif
