    Flash or usb is best location. HDD not recommended, your hdd will be constantly spinning otherwise n laggy.

    I have never had any problems using picons installed in my HDD.
    So, there is no way to install picons from ipk-file directly into HDD?
    Why have you stopped giving an updated picon-file directory? That can be directly moved.
    ipk-file is too big to be placed in my tmp-file. I have to install it from my HDD as an extra extension.

    Thanks for the Ocram update but is there any way to extract the .ipk (like a .rar) on a pc so I can have the picon folder & contents as before?

    There's several picons I've added that were missing from Ocrams 400x240 into my own picon folder. I just tend to pick out any new ones I'm missing & ftp them over into my existing folder on sat box, that way I don't delete any that aren't in the pack.

    Thanks

    The tar.xz files are not that easy to miss. https://github.com/picons/picons-source/releases

    I noticed Sky Arts was missing for a while so I knocked it up in 400 x 240 White Transparent.
