Make Your Own IceTime Background

In the new version of IceTime you can use custom backgrounds behind the main schedule view. A gallery of available custom backgrounds is now on-line here. In the widget you simply enter the name of the background you want to use in the Background Image preference section after choosing the "Use Custom" option.

These are very easy to make and I've posted both a blank .jpg and a .psd file that you can use as a template. You can also use your own as long as it is 109 px high by 189 px wide, also remember that there should be black (or similar) stripe at the top where the game dates are shown.

I reccomend using light colors as this makes it easier to read the game times and have the jerseys stand out. You should also make an image that is slightly darker or different than your first to be used when games have been played.

To make your backgrounds available to the world for use with the widget simply send them to hockeywidgets@gmail.com with a title and your name (if you want it listed beneath your images).

The only real limitations are that you can't use any copyrighted images.
