Hey guys. I haven't used SMS Plus in a long time, so I decided to make a cd with all of my roms. The emulator itself runs fine, but...er...how do you add screen-shots to the menu again? I have everything in the correct folder, and my images are in .pcx format. My roms are titled like this "Name (UE) [!].sms" and the images like this "Name (UE) [!].pcx" so shouldn't it work fine? They're in the snap folder where there's two folders inside - SMS and GG, just like the corresponding roms folders. Please help me out.

Are they in 256 colors? That's all I can think of - it worked for me.

They should be in 256 colors. Also check the resolutions:
SMS: 256x192, GG: 160x144

Thanks! But how do you convert them to 256? It should be. I took a screenshot with my emulator and converted it to .pcx. The res is correct, so I guess the color might be wrong, although I don't know how.

IrfanView is a great little app for batch converting. Very recommend.

Thanks again. But I can't find that darn screen-shot pack on the site you gave me. I've checked everywhere. Please help.

EDIT: I found them, but the page doesn't work. Any mirrors of this pack? Sigh...
