For someone who doesn’t really care about this, you sure do have a ton of opinions. I’m not sure why there’s an aire of stubbornness, being open to new ideas, and new ways of doing things. I’m simply showing that there are always ways think outside of the box and do things differently, perhaps even better.

Looks great! If you want just the logo, you can tell Wolf to remove the background and turn off the shortcut arrow icon. You can also make the background black, which would blend in with the icon image and make the “whole” icon look black. Then you’d have a floating USTVGo Icon. Since I use a black background, it looks a little more natural. I’m sure with some tweaking of the image though, it’d be possible to find Wolf’s icons’ exact dimensions and make pretty logos.

Edit: Something else I’ve been doing is making custom transparent logos using free tools like this one: Free Logo Creator - The HOTH Transparent logos will look good on any background. Just make sure it’s png and not svg as Wolf doesn’t like to read the latter!

Wow! That is pretty awesome. I really like the sports replay site. I’m going to setup some bookmark links to the NBA and catchup on some games I had missed.

Thanks!

I just tried it and you are right, it is really easy.

Look, you do as you wish. I personally don’t give two hoots about the USTVGO app or url. That was a couple of years ago interest. I offered a m3u and full epg as a free alternative for folks who may be interested. When the developer of the m3u discontinued and joined forces with the ProjectMooose using Kodi I pretty much quit investigating it because I don’t like or use Kodi. I did find an apk that I relayed on to those who still wished to use USTVGO. I really have not given USTVGO that much more attention and have since found more and better apps to use with less hassles.

The USTVGO app, url, and m3u have been thoroughly tested by just about everyone who was ever concerned about it over the last couple of years. If someone REALLY wants to use that app as their primary iptv service. Then I would STRONGLY suggest them buying a Nord sub!

These are all saved as PNG so you can copy and use as you please or can add some of your own creative alterations. These were all made using PowerPoint and 3D paint. Y

The icons only shows when they are scrolled up or down. The total background is an invisible hot button that boots up Tivimate by clicking anywhere on the screen. I agree, that was a first attempt a couple of years ago using the Wolf Launcher. I have since made about 6 or 7 more themes. Right now, I have been playing around with the Projectivy Launcher, because I like the minimalistic nature of the launcher.

The point of the pic was to demonstrate the transparent icons that you can make and incorporate into your own homepage theme.

Transparent icons is where it’s at. Maybe we should get another “show me your layout” thread going. I have a minimal look for my launcher showing my most used apps on the homepage. I also built a custom setting menu for quick-access things that suit my needs.

Less used apps, testing apps, and system tools goes in the dotdotdot folder.

I usually just grab an icon or logo off of whatever app’s website and then make it transparent. All of those TP icons are transparent, except for the neon looking one. I don’t believe I made that one transparent.

The pic is off of the Projectivy launcher. I like that the background picks will rotate, but you really can’t customize the icons all that much …just sizing is about all. Although, I do think I might have found a way to fully customize an app, but it would be complicated and time consuming and frankly really not worth the effort.

Paint 3D is your go-to tool for making transparent backgrounds? I believe we’re doing the same thing. I’ll grab images and try to rip the background from them; sometimes successfully, sometimes not when the program leaves weird compressed looking artifacts.

You can make floating icons with any image u want, just edit the pik with an outliner & remove the background, almost all my icons are self-made

Those are freaking awesome! They may take the App from the Troypointers, but can’t take the Troypointers away from the App!

No, not really. I use paint 3D for a variety of things, Although, I have used it to make some transparencies.

Wrong ridiculer PF, i wasnt the one who was anti hulk… lol

Sorry, doin too much multi-tasking…lol

The second one looks good, but the first one is crappy. You see all the black artifacts around the edges? It’ll only look clean on a perfectly black background. Otherwise, you have an MS Paint Windows 98 look to your icons.

That’s probably because of your set-up. It doesn’t show any artifacts on my end. Maybe it’s your computer?
