Oh, sh*t no, I don't know anything about smart layers and smart filters and such...  I thought you did that...   There was 1 smart object in the PSD I found, and I had no choice but to learn how it worked.

Good work on the gradient mask, I was just painting a little more black on each time.

I was thinking... If I knew a little bit more, or had time,  it should be possible to do the smart object without any effects on it, and then you'd have a process that was simple enough that you could reduce it to an action.   Just take a screen shot, hit the action, and it could pop out two png's.

Maybe redo entire themes (if you can applescript it)....  I'm really not expert in these things.

I was hoping to learn enough, and have some ideas to do a matching theme for my BIOS splash screen, but I havent' thought of anything that wouldn't look retarded yet.   I'd appreciate any ideas, here's the POST screen:



I think you can kind of see what I'm thinking...  and why I chose the spotlight theme to play with (although it really is the best theme).

Addendum:  Here is the code I patched to add the XP logo...   it simply matches any NTFS partition with the name "Windows XP" (well, what else would  you call it).   Works a treat.
