LewpetOP
#1
Normal r4 skins dont work on my r4i because their bitrate is 16 or something, but someone told me that the r4i uses a bitrate of 32 I was wondering if any one knows of a program that can make a 16 bit image into a 32 but image, and if their is a program that does it, how to do it on that programThank you, Lewpet

Re: R4i gold skins wont work for me...Use the background images from the R4 themes, and overwrite the images in the R4i theme (named accordingly).

Re: R4i gold skins wont work for me...The reason they don't work is becuase the bitrate(or something like that) is diffrent. The R4DS uses a bitrate of 16(or something like that) and I'm pretty sure the R4i card uses a bitrate of 32.Hope it Helps,

EDIT:You can change the bitrate of images by editing them in PhotoShop or related program.

Ok, sorry I took so long, but I found it:
And before I tell you you should know that:
A)Its BitDEPTh, not bitrate
B)You need to convert them in 24 bit depth, not 32 bitdepth.Step one:
Open the image in PhotoShop and right click on the image and click properties(make sure the image is 16 bit. I know it says its 24bit but thats because this is a skin made for the R4i):
Now save the fine as a .PNGNow open up the .PNG file and save it as a .BMP it should ask you what bitdepth you want to image to be, select 24.
Now your skins should work, if not, try a different bitdepth.Hope it Helps
