Simple 3DS GBA Banner + Icon generator is a software that allows you to generate the images from any ROM automatically. It is created for people who want to make their own GBA CIA injections, without the need to search for the images/edit them one by one.

Note: This utility has been incorporated into Ultimate GBA VC Injector.

User guide

The program first identifies the game of the ROM using the no-info dat-o-matic database. Then the software downloads the image from the libretro's thumbnails database. Finally, the Image Fairies combines all this to generate the wonderful images that you can see, using their Magical Pen to write the game name to the banner.

To use:

Give the ROM to the software.
Wait for it to search from the database.
Click on the save button.

Note: You can change the TTF if you prefer a different font.

-==Simple 3DS GBA Banner + Icon generator==
+Simple 3DS GBA Banner + Icon generator is a software that allows you to generate the images from any ROM automatically. It is created for people who want to make their own GBA CIA injections, without the need to search for the images/edit them one by one.
-<span style="font-size: 18px">It guesses the game of the GBA ROM and generates the icon and banners for you !</span>'''
-The process of creating a GBA CIA is ''almost'' as simple as it seems. Everything is straightforward, except for one thing : the images. It's quite painful to have to take out GIMP and make those banners. I personnaly gave up <span style="font-size: 9px">(the Fire Emblem default images aren't that bad after all)</span>.
+'''Note:''' This utility has been incorporated into [[Ultimate GBA VC Injector 3DS|Ultimate GBA VC Injector]].
-This is where this software comes on stage : it's a software which allows you to '''generate the images from any ROM'''. Yes, it's '''automatic'''. No need to search for the images on Google, no need to pull out GIMP <span style="font-size: 9px">(get back there you filthy monkey).</span> There is no hidden defect : you just have to '''select the ROM''' and let the magic of computer engineering '''get those PNGs''' for you.
+==User guide==
+The program first identifies the game of the ROM using the no-info dat-o-matic database. Then the software downloads the image from the libretro's thumbnails database. Finally, the Image Fairies combines all this to generate the wonderful images that you can see, using their Magical Pen to write the game name to the banner.
-'''Now, the process is really straightforward :'''
+To use:
+* Give the ROM to the software.
+* Wait for it to search from the database.
+* Click on the save button.
-# Get a ROM freshly harvested from your cartridges farm
+'''Note:''' You can change the TTF if you prefer a different font.
-# Put the ROM in the Simple 3DS GBA Banner + Icon Generator
-# Put the ROM in the Footer Generator
-# Put everything in the CIA Generator
-# Install the CIA, play!
-<span style="font-size: 9px">(if someone can give me CLI versions of the footer &amp; cia generators, I could do a all-in-one software)</span>

-==But how does it work ?==
-It's actually pretty simple. It first '''identifies the game''' of the ROM using the '''no-info dat-o-matic database'''. It's basically a huge collection of more than 2k5 GBA games. Then, the software '''downloads the image''' from the '''libretro's thumbnails database'''. It's also a huge collection, but of images this time. Then, the Image Fairies combines all this to '''generate the wonderful images''' that you can see up there, using their Magical Pen to write the game name to the banner.
-==How do I use it ?==
-# Give the ROM to the software
-# Let the magic occur
-# Click on the save button
-# Done
-==Where do I download this ?==
-Hint : extract the whole thing, dont forget the DLL and TTF or it won't work
-Hint² : if you don't like the font, just change the TTF <span style="font-size: 9px">(but don't rename it, you know what I mean)</span>

-==Known issues==
-*None yet, I'm waiting for your feedbacks !
-==Improvements ?==
-Let me know if any of you guys want this, I'll try to add these features.
-* A all-in-one software to create the footer, the banners and the CIA by clicking on one single button (I need CLI versions of others software for that)
-* Ability to change the game text on the banner <span style="font-size: 9px">(because ''Legend of Zelda, The - The Minish Cap'' is useful but not pretty)
