Click on his image. It opens the google drive .svg. You can then download it yourself, etc.

Seems like it should work just fine. 100x100. I opened it in Inkscape to check it out.

A couple of points.....
- the button folder name (inside the buttons folder), image name (svg file) and xml file all have to be EXACTLY the same name.
- is the image name spelled correctly in the skin xml file?
- when you saved the image did you convert it to outlines? (I use Adobe Illustrator and have to "save as outlines" in order for it to show up
What program are you using to create the button? (not that it should matter)
Let us know if any of this helped.

ahhh! thanks...
ok i opened the .svg and the first thing i noticed is that there are a million layers full of elements that are not being used. ok maybe not a million but a bunch of them. delete all the ones you don't need to eliminate problems that they are causing.

Thank you guys, yes spelling is correct, as i did just copy and paste to be sure.
Could you please make some screen video of deleting those element and exporting image ? So i wont bother you with future images ?
