DSiWare titles can be opened and browsed like any DS game through programs like Tinke. These programs often let you export the Home Menu icon. However, DSiWare titles have animated icons, meaning only the first frame is exportable. How can I export all frames?
I still haven't figured this out. I'm going to post a banner.bin file in case anyone wants to give it a try.
Hi, I recently saw you post some animated HOME Icons, have you figured it out yet?

All sprites are in a folder of files. For example, New Super Mario Bros., the sprites would be in the polygon_unit folder
