New BMP file sizes in Photoshop are too large?

I am in the process of updating/finishing the Apple theme by imBasketCase. When I create the updated bmp, I flatten it, export to bmp with the lowest quality settings, but the file size shoots from the regular 40kb to 170kb? What are the proper export settings so that the final file size is close to stock?

It sounds to me like your bit depth is off. Find out what the bit depth is of the original file and then just reopen your file and save it with the same bit depth. Also make sure that the dimensions are the same

I save the bmp as 16bit

The work started by imBasketCase was pretty good.

 

I have the nearly completed version installed and am keen to get a finished version.

 

I tried cleaning up the numbered files and missing images and files however I am not a PC person and hacking I did on my Mac wasn't good.

 

Not sure what the files with the talking head style icon were for?

 

Are you supposed to get an elaborate overlay type screen when a call comes in?

 

Please keep us posted.!!
