Are you a Detroit Pistons fan? Do you have a Harmony 880 remote control? Then this Pistons background for the Harmony 880 is for you! (Note: It should also work on a Harmony 890.)
I used The GIMP to do the image editing.
- I downloaded the gradient background from j3’s Harmony 880 site.
- I downloaded the Pistons logo from answers.com.
- I resized the background to 400x500 (the same ratio as 128x160) using Cubic interpolation and saved it to a PNG (which doesn’t use lossy compression).
- I created a new image of size 400x500.
- I opened the new background PNG as a layer.
- I opened the logo PNG as a layer.
- I changed the opacity of the logo layer to 20% so it won’t make the display hard to read.
- I saved it to The GIMP’s native file format in case you want to change something.
- I resized the image to 128x160 using Cubic interpolation.
- I saved the image as a GIF.
I did most of the image manipulation at 400x500 and resized after because the edges of the logo were too jagged when I did everything at 128x160.
