Custom device images for MM4
Posted: Tue May 31, 2011 1:58 pm
As you probably already noticed, in MM4 there's a nice device config page, which displays a device image. This image can be specific (for the iDevices, for example) or generic.
In my house there are six or seven different devices (5th gen iPod, Nokia 5310, microSD cards, USB thumb drives, wife's Xperia, ...), which I sync frequently, using MM (obviously!). As I wanted all my devices displaying the CORRECT device images, I dug the Internet searching for hi-res images and edited then all to create MM friendly transparent PNG versions.
The result is here, for your pleasure:
As I found it funny, I just searched for other well known devices and also created device images for them. Now I'm sharing all the device images I've created, so you all can benefit. If you want other well known devices added to this gallery, just let me know. I'll find a good resource image, edit it appropriately and publish here.
