Someone mentioned a custom Sport Trac Icon for a GPS. I have a Garmin unit. Anyone point me to a cool little Sport Trac?
Thanks

Not for Garmin, but I made this for my APRS/GPS tracking site.
Little blue ST. Feel free to copy it and make modifications for your purposes.

For those out there that use APRS or know what it is, check out my little mashup I made with findu.com and Google maps.

Larry Phillips created a realistic looking icon of his Trac, Jade, as it would look from behind and above (a perfect angle when using navigation in 3D mode).
I don't know which GPS software he's using, though.

I'm using iGuidance 3.0 by iNav on a Windows XP computer. I used a program called Resource Hacker to replace the original icon bitmap images with my own. If you'd like, I can create a modded bitmap that looks like your ST. I dunno how you'd install it on a Garmin, though.

Wow Larry. That is one huge ST. Almost 100ft long according to the scale in the overhead view...
I have said that my next vehicle will have a car PC in it so I can put whatever I want on it, be it MP3's, updateable Nav, etc... My AVIC is cool for now, but I wish I could put MP3's on it (instead of the crap format Pioneer converts the music to) and a cheap update for the Nav would be nice, not 400 bucks for an "update" that does little more than put a chokehold on the nav system itself (no chaging information when moving which means no reroute, no cancel route, no find a place to eat)

Yeah, that's one thing I like about it. You're free from most proprietary inconveniences. All the skins for Frodoplayer were re-drawn by me and laid out as I wanted. I can add almost any capability that's USB based, and Windows XP compatible.
