I'm putting together a panel for my new Lamptron HM101. Problem is, it's high-res (2560x1600 which is weird because it's supposed to be 1920x1080) so I'm going to have to create some of the gauges I want myself. I'm wanting something like the image below but I don't really know where to start. Should I just install Gimp and give it a go or is there something better/easier to use? How big will I need to make each file?
Any advice would be greatly appreciated. I've only done something like this a couple times and I'm not very good at it.

Hi, I think that you're talking of my panel.
This is high res because I got a 10" 2560x1600px.
Well, if you want me to do something on them, just mp me ;)

Any 1920x1200 designs out there I too have searched every page and didn't find any. And I too am looking for a design with a resolution of 1920x1200

Same problem here, feel like 1920x1200 is a super rare size or something.. Been checking for months but there are zero 1920x1200 ones out there

Hi Robert,

That would be easy enough. First find a look that you like from all of the designs out here. Download that and import in the sensorpanel manager. Then get a 1920*1200 background (jpg/png etc). Go to the sensorpanel manager and replace the background (png jpeg etc). Resize the usable area with drag and drop on the edges. Then move the sensors and gauges etc to your liking.

This likely takes up 1 hour of your time ;)

Regards

When i replace the background image with a 1920x1200 image i get the size of the original background..

 

#edit: never mind, after checking the details of the downloaded pictures they are not true 1920x1200 pixels, although they are advertised that way.. Thank you for the help :)

I am unable to manually adjust gauges tho, do you know why this is happening?

by the way, one easy way to get a background of your liking to fit your panel size:

Download a high(er) resolution picture, like in your case 2560*1440, and select 'edit with paint 3d'.

Then use the select option, and you'll see exactly how many pixels your selecting, it'll show you in the program.

Then copy that selection, paste in an empty mspaint file, and voila, you've got something to start off with...

Gimp is a good place to start with learning the tools needed to start making a half decent panel, I started with gimp, but it has its limitations, and hence why i moved on to Adobe AI and PS and Unity,  far more polished in the finer details of what you can do, and if you want eye candy gauges then definately AI

 

if your only looking to make simple bars for a lamptron bay display then Gimp will be more than adequate, do everything in PNG and layers youll need 0-15 (16 layers)  youll find some tutorials online for basics but take a while to find a few where they dont rabble on!!    

good luck if you send me your email i might have afew gimp templates for you to mess about with that are already bars you might just have to resize for your purpose

thanks mate. that's helpful
