Rooster I'm going to ask again lol. Ahaz thank you for your response but the icons were too small, but I appreciate your time

mm22191! open up composer, extact the files from tht .zip and open each icon individually and resize the icon to 36x36 if you are making the theme for the curve or pearl tht is and make the canvas 48x36. center the actual icon and export.

Resizing icons in GIMP:
1. open image
2. resize image (Image->Scale Image). unless you want something specific, you should keep the size relative. (AKA changing an 80X80 image to a 40X40 and not a 40X60)
3. if you need to increase the width, height, or both; resize canvas (Image -> Canvas Size). You can click on the chain image to decouple the dimensions so you can change one without the other. You can also shift the image so all of the new canvas is on one side or the other instead of in the center. (That is what the X and Y offset are for. X=0 will keep the image on the left. Center will figure out what your X and Y need to be to put the image in the center.)
4. Save image (File -> Save As) Personally I will rename it so I can keep the original for use later.

For icons to be used in a Bold theme, I prefer resizing down to 64X64 and then increasing the canvas back to 80X80. This seems to keep the images in scale with other images found on the BB OS.

Not difficult but does take some time.
