To add additional GIFs for programmable buttons just drop them into your JavaFIBS images folder.

I've made three buttons which I use for RepBot ask %Player, list %Player and friends %Player:

   

Also some for super lazy kibitzing:

Find your JavaFIBS folder and then drop these GIFs into the images folder. Then when you go to program a button it'll appear in the drop down list of images. They appear in alphabetical order by name.

These flags are 16x16 pixels (16x12 plus transparent top and bottom) so that they can be used as buttons in JavaFibs. The attached zip file has all these above plus the Nordic ones.

Rather than manually add buttons in you can edit the 'buttons' file in a text editor, it sits here:
JavaFIBS2001/user/[name]/buttons

Here's how my file reads:
Quotetell RepBot ask %Player
images/repbot_a.gif
tell RepBot f %Player
images/repbot_f.gif
tell RepBot l %Player

Alef - I have been playing with my buttons - as you showed us yesterday.  Got the repbot working - that is sooooooooooooo good.  Took the idea on - and created some to do the basic setups with tourneybot - so the dialogue is opened - then life is a little easier.  But - how do i replace the 'pumpkin'?  Cant see where i edit that one.

Glad you're having fun, I love programming buttons!

JavaFIBS has various fixed icons that you can't change under programmable buttons, but you can replace anything in the images folder. While JavaFIBS isn't running go to the application's folder on your hard disk, in Images you'll find pumpkin.gif which you can then change for another image of the same size and same name.

Attached is my players icon of three little stick figures. I've zipped it so that you can download it by clicking rather than having to copy it over as an image which gets a new name.

And there it is  :D  much better !!
