v2.51 Changes:

• Detects when Photoshop is extracting and when its finished extracting.
  
• Save preview image during coldboot packing process, saved in the Coldboot folder.
  
• Code Rebug's Coldboot installer will be extracted to the same location as the application.
  

Update: Finished up and implemented the missing things. Version is 2.51.

This version is a slight mod of version 2.51. Instead of Photoshop I have replaced it with GIMP 2.6, DDS plugin is included. For now I will say use with care since I have not figured out what settings need to be set in GIMP to create a successful coldboot, if anything stay away from this version unless you want to test.

I am looking at 2 potential alternatives for Photoshop. One being the one found in this version and the other is Paint.Net.

IF YOU ARE TESTING:

My PS3 is unfortunately not functional and so I want to take this time to request testers. Testers need to keep in mind that installing a messed up coldboot cannot perma-brick your PS3. Testers also must know before hand that if the system does hang or seem to be in a brick state that
they should be ready to reinstall the firmware.

Testers goal is to find a working setting while saving that will create a working coldboot and report it.

ProTip: it is one of the DXT5 options.
Protip2: use save as and not save to get to the different settings that need to be tested.

Changes:

• Replaced bundled Photoshop with gimp 2.6 portable (added dds plugin).
  
• Kind of stupid of me but added a close button in the help menu.
  
• Changed the browse window to browse to any editor and not just Photoshop.exe
  

Future plans:

• Update help menu with editing/saving information.
  
• Fix the issue of not loading preview image on slow computers (maybe sometime soon)
  
• Get a Paint.Net variant version (maybe)
  
• Add simple preset animations ex: scroll in from left/right/top/bottom (possibly sooner then later)
  
• UI changes (eventually going to happen)
