How to make PhotoRite Frames for the Nokia S60:
I know there are many frames on this forum that you can get on this forum, but i couldn't find a how to thread to help others, so here is my first tutorial!
This method has worked 100% on my 6630.
1.
If you you a file ecplorer, eg: FExplorer, go to: E:\System\Apps\PhotoRite\pr_frames
you will find 4 folders and 3 files. go into and folder for eg. 'fun'... and you will find a few images. as you can see, there are 3 images for each frame, for eg, Egypt_i.jpg : Egypt_i.mbm : Egypt_m.jpg
What I did is send the Egypt_i.mbm file to the computer.
2.
You will need to find a picture for your frame, make sure that the dimensions are suitable to be changed to 640x480 (that will be the frame dimesions!)
Once you get the picture, resize it to 640x480 using photoshop or paintshop or whatever you use.
3.
You will need to crop out the are where you want the pictures face area to be:
[Only registered and activated users can see links]
Once done, save the file as , ?????_i.jpg
Then, fill in the white cropped out area with black paint and fill the surroundings completely white, like so:
[Only registered and activated users can see links]
Once done save as, ?????_m.jpg
4.
Now, open the ?????_i.jpg and resize to 44x33 and save as (not overwrite) ?????_i.bmp*.
5.
Using MBM Wizard (which you can find on this forum, search). Import the eygpt_i.mbm file. You will see one image there, delete and replace with the ?????_i.bmp file. Then save as ?????_i.mbm
6.
Send these 3 Pics (????_i.jpg , ????_m.jpg, ????_i.mbm) to your phone. Use FExplorer to put these in the folder E:\System\Apps\PhotoRite\pr_frames\Fun
And you've done it!
* the ???? means that you MUST use the exact same name!!!!
Open PhotoRite and chose you frame, it may have a eird icon there but it does work! Try it!
Please rep if this helped!
