i think youd need a 1920x1080 screenshot of the XMB itself for that, sadly i dont know where to find those.

Maybe someone with an HD capture card can do it...

I hope Blimblim is reading this thread. :)

Whoa. Though I'm not quite sure I get the idea behind this... overlap it with whatever background you want on Photoshop or something? I'm going to end up feeling completely stupid but it won't be the first time.

Try setting this as your PS3 Wallpaper and ull get the drift:


And yes, the first 2 images can be used as a guide for people who want to do their own custom XMB Tracing. The last one, you can magic_wand/overlap with a wallpaper and add effects.

Thanks but you saved it as .jpg so there were a lot of colors in it :(, easier to overlap with a transparent png, so here it is!



edit: Hmm, it saved as rgb 8.. must fix that

o. m. g. if you did these you rock, if you found them you still rock, but not quite as much. :D

The one with the sword is the official boxart. :D

My contribution, anyone who wants to take it :p
Looking freaking sick on my TV.

Edit because i cant figure out how to do thumbnails, i added the XMB bar to this:
hs9.jpg.xs.jpg


How do you do thumbnails or whatever, that pic is huge and overshadows the thread.

Use http://xs.to/ for hosting. Once the upload is complete it will give you the forum code for a thumbnail image with linking to the original.


I prefer photobucket though, cause I got a million pics in it, and allot of my work stuff.
Do you know if bucket does it?

Okay, new file since the other one gave vertical lines in photoshop for some reason. This one I just filled in with black and made it lighter when blending. Use the linear burn option in blending options to get rid of the white.



example:


Good Job! This is exactly what we need everyone to do now :)

Save the updated file I had posted a few posts up HERE, it is the outline of the icons. Have your original image open and then paste the icon outline image in photoshop. Fill in the inside of the trace with preferably black. Right click the trace layer in the bottom right menu (should be layer 2) and select blending options. Change the blend mode to linear burn and slide the opacity bar until you think it looks good. Then save it as a jpg, png whatever. There is probably a better way but yeah.

Here's my first attempt. Looks pretty smooth in XMB. I think it needs a little trimming for the Tracing. Let me know how it looks:
