Then I upload in these hours on my website

I was thinking of an always packaged system configured like this the system build that has to be burned and installed and then a basic system package with the necessary apps and all the apps then another package

Thank you, that's OK too It is not difficult to install a new build with this method

Salvo, if you need I will create the ISO for you, or give you a step by step tutorial on how to create a bootable ISO of AROS. I suggest you wait for the final deadwood Build though, because there might be some changes ! Then as said on Italian forum better wait for tests on all the software we use on distributions.

TinyAros 3.1b is available all the best of the software is included as for the previous versions I am using it on my site you will find two links one is for the build released by deadwood and the other are the files to overwrite over the installed system i.e. the build [url=https://ibb.co/R35x1Jz][img]https://i.ibb.co/zXky1tG/Tiny-Aros3-1b.jpg[/img][/url]

i can't create the iso or a bootable image from usb in this case just load the iso released by deadwood stable version and then download the necessary from my site and add it to the system after an installation works as well thanks and let me know if my distribution is liked also with a like here on the post

I was trying to figure out how to create a disk image to make deadwood bootable, many thanks

If you have HDD with previous version of system installed, you need to make sure system boots from USB and not from HDD. To do so, you need to use Early Startup (bootmenu) option and select UD0 device the "Use", the "Boot".

i don't know if i will release other versions of tiny aros i have problems with my software which is incompatible with the new builds, i have tried with vmware and converting the disk to vhd but the usb key boots and stops after a while, i will do more tests

The alpha blending formula is working to blend the alpha values with the background color. It matches what Cybergraphx Library does. The small icon image is from an actual icon displayed in a window. The large icon image is the one displayed (2x) in Icon Builder display area. I should be able to finish the other functions in about a week. Then I can start using Icon Builder to make some new icons. :) After this I will probably work on Theme Builder. It isn't an icon tool but it may be very useful.

Now I have an accurate formula for Alpha Blending with a Background Color when using WriteRGBPixel (graphics library). We repeat the process for each red, green, blue value of the source pixel we are blending with the background color (bgvalue). src_alpha is the alpha value of the pixel we are blending. We have to make it between 0-1 so : alpha = (src_alpha/255); value = ceil [ bgvalue ( 1.0 - alpha ) + value1*(alpha); where value1, value2, value3 are the source pixel red, green, blue values.

I have a revised roadmap for Icon Tools that seems more realistic. For Icon Toolkit it will be the app launcher for Icon Clone, Icon Drop, Icon Split, Icon Tint, Icon Type, Icon Style. Icon Press will be an All-In-One Icon Application that can make or split both PNG and IFF Icons. Icon Edit will be very similar with an added Color Palette and the Extended Options Buttons. As soon as the Save Amiga Icons functions are complete for Icon Press I will include that in Icon Drop and update the current version to save PNG Icons (Dual PNG Icons) and IFF Icons (Amiga Classic Icons aka Glow Icons). Then there is Icon Builder, Theme Builder, and MUI Re-Builder. The last two aren't Icon Tools but they share similar features. :) I'm also planning to release some Picture Tools such as RGB2GIF, RGB2PNG, RGB2IFF that use the simplified user interface. As well as Picture2GIF, Picture2IFF, Picture2HAM and the Picture Viewer which only uses a classic window only interface with a menu system. I hope to also make it compatible with Amiga OS 3.5/3.9. Maybe since the other apps including Icon Tools use a GadTools User Interface they may also be compiled for Amiga OS as well as for AROS. ;)

deadwood I agree. Sometimes it seems like I worked several hours but only made little progress. But some of the code and concepts are difficult.

[quote name=miker1264 post=3835]@miker1264 I've been working on this icon tool since January 5th for an average of about 4 hours per day. It takes a lot of time to develop and test new code.[/quote] I can only suppor that statement ^^. A day should at least have 48 hours so that we can develop all we want and have time for sleep ;)

So what is different about this one? It's the screenshot of the first Glow mask drawn by drag-n-drop to display the image and by reading the chain code description directly from the text file. That makes further testing much easier. I attached my revised chain code diagram. I'm using letters instead of the original numbers. I've been working on this icon tool since January 5th for an average of about 4 hours per day. It takes a lot of time to develop and test new code.

The screenshot shows some progress since last time. Drag-n-drop now works to display the large image on the right side. I still have to refine the function for alpha blending to draw to the Window Rasterport. As you can see from the screenshot Icon Builder actually draws the glow mask based on the image chain code. I'm experimenting with reading the chain code directly from a text file. The sample log file shows that it works. The sample CC file is for reference. The chain code diagram is also for reference to get an idea of how it works. So what is the benefit of using an Icon Tool like Icon Builder? I sure wish I had this tool while I was drawing all the glow masks by hand for the floppy disk, Ls-120, zip100, flash disk and ram disk icons. Each Glow mask takes about 20-30 minutes to draw by hand in a paint program. In Icon Builder as long as the chain code is good it takes about 2 seconds! What a time saver. :)

at the moment I'm worrying about donating what I can for the porting of WCS and then I'm in contact with Papio for work on a tool I'll be sure to give you something as soon as I can

ok miker:)

Here is the documentation for drawing Glow Masks. I've included a PDF as well as the source code samples for all the glow mask functions. Amiwell and anyone else who would like to contribute for my efforts to encourage me to write these applications can find my email address in the Icon Builder ReadMe file.
