Can anybody help? I have made a few themes now but i don't quite know how to edit the signal/battery icons. I believe i need some sort of drawing application or photoshop but i don't have a clue which one or wether i need both. I know i can just use pictures for the icons but i am running out of pictures to use. I will appreciate any help.

i'd get in touch with bny castro or wengweng,they know they're stuff

Well you need photoshop (that's what most of us use). You just got to make a 12px by 29px image and use the mask wand (in the theme studio) to hide the parts you don't want to show in the theme.

Thanks guys but i don't have photo shop, but i tried using the mask and the wand and it worked great. Judge for yourself. This is my attempt. Thanks again..

That's great! Well incase you need photoshop, you can download it here (trial under downloads)...
