I tried those but it didn't seem to make any change at all. It should be those options but there is no difference regardless of what image I put in there.

And yes the images I want to use are alredy in my /home/user/.queenbeecons folder

I know how to set the main background to any image I want, I have done that. But when I click the widget, I want it to have an effect, like a button pressed effect on the current N900 app shortcuts. Exactly like that.

I have the image for it and I know QBW can do it, I just don't know how. Please help me

is the key to your FX
see http://wiki.maemo.org/Queen_BeeCon_W..._Dialer_Widget
for an example

Be warned, however, that app gets lauched very quickly and you might not be able to see the press animation unless you put some delay (sleep 1) after click

so i did this......put this command in qbw: dbus-send --type=method_call --dest=com.nokia.HildonDesktop.AppMgr /com/nokia/HildonDesktop/AppMgr com.nokia.HildonDesktop.AppMgr.LaunchApplication string:"<application name here>"..... and where it says application name i put kasvopus.desktop or kasvopus on its own but nothing happened. i checked the boxes that say click, desktop and sight on yes and still nothing. can you see if ive done anything wrong?

and do i leave the "<>" in and put the name of app between them? cos thats what i did.

ok first of all , check if you have entered kasvopus only , because .desktop will not work .
and second check if osso is there with kasvopus or not .
and if osso is not there then

dbus-send --type=method_call --dest=com.nokia.HildonDesktop.AppMgr /com/nokia/HildonDesktop/AppMgr com.nokia.HildonDesktop.AppMgr.LaunchApplication string:"kasvopus"

should work .
