Corrupt skin error when applying Superclock custom skin
I have developed a custom skin using the BW Skin Dev kit and guidelines used by dissecting existing BW Superclock skins.
Everything appears to be in order as I've made my image files match exactly the dimensions of an existing working skin however I get a skin is corrupt error when applying it and the result is that the widget does not show the background.png and no clock numbers. Additionally the background_numbers.png image is skewed stretched over the widget.
A perusal of the log file states that the background.png is corrupt and that the width needs to be > 0. The dimensions of the background.png are 84x76 so I'm not sure why the error is occuring.
I've attached the skin files and the resultant log file after applying. There is a screenshot of the widget in it's error state included in the zip.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
-John

Hi,
Passed ~2hours on it:
Use numbers_x.png and not Numbers_X.png
bad stretch -> Take care about the "black lines" that needs to be of pure black
Corrupt error -> Looks like it comes from the black lines too. I have only redone them and it worked.
Your file modified is attached below.

Thanks Vin, I am not sure how the stretch zone indicators weren't pure black as I copied them from the PSD. About the capital on the number files, not sure why but I noticed that when I would drag and drop the original number png's from where I was editing them at to the sd card, that the copy process would change the first letter to uppercase. Very strange. Maybe it's something that Windows 7 does when copying to external storage?
Either way I got it to work. Thanks very much for your help!
Cheers,
-John
