A small question that's been most likely asked before, but how do you add characters to the folder? I dumped a Chorus Man icon into the folder and followed the naming procedure that the other icons had, but the maker didn't recognize it.
Did you click the add custom icons button under File?

Also make sure it's Icon and not icon, case sensitive.

The update for the version 9.0 is now available! You can download it using the "Check for updates" button in the "?" menu.

Version 7 or higher of Java is required before doing the update.

As always, doing a backup of your folder (especially your "dat" file and your "images" folder is highly recommend in case something goes wrong.)

EDIT: Let me know as soon as possible if the update doesn't work as it should or you notice something wrong.

I updated the link on the front page. You might check there.

Here is a list of the main new features in the version 9.0:
  • Added a button named "Manage series..." to the "File" menu. The options to add or remove custom franchises will now be in this window. It is also now possible to reorder the series to change the order in which they appear in the program by default.
  • Added a number that shows the number of the currently selected icon for a character in the list if it has more than one.
  • Added the option to sort the saved rosters by last date modified, or simply alphabetically as before.
And of course, many changes related to the icons and the series.

Here. I made a transparent background version of the Mr. Game & Watch from the Pac-Man trailer.
Can someone make an icon of it? I'm sure a lot of people want this one.

Hey, @ Jakor Jakor thanks for the version 9.0! I went ahead and updated it, but today I can't open it up for some reason. I have tried both the application and the jar and neither of them open. Should I reinstall 9.0 from scratch?

I'm doing a huge batch of icons, so I'll update them here a bit later!

EDIT: These are mainly requests I found in the thread. There's a bunch I'm doing, but I can't tag everybody whose icons I made.

So, the update is working correctly for most people? If you ever notice something unusual

This seems weird. If it was working after the update then I don't know why it wouldn't later on. Make sure you have Java 7 or higher installed on your computer. You could also try using the "rosterMakerOriginal.dat" by renaming it "rosterMaker",dat file. This is the database used by the program. You will lose all of your custom rosters and any modification you made to the characters that way though.

Can you zoom in on Game & Watch's head a bit more?
Just so it is very close to the pre-exiting Game & Watch icons.

Here's a better, transparent pic of Shovel Knight for those interested in making an icon for him.

Oh thank you. This makes it a lot easier for me.

Also, I updated my old post with some new icons.

I... Just...Did? I did not have the names, and I EDITED THEM ON!
If you know how, then there was no reason to double post. Double posting is extremely frowned upon here. Just edit your other post or wait for someone else to post.

Thanks, Jakor. I reinstalled Java and now it's working again.

So Jakor, I got a question/request. Would it be possible at all for a new feature where you press a button and you get a random icon added to the roster? It's not necessary at all but I think it could be fun for joke rosters and stuff like that.

Why is everyone picking on me?
They're not trying to be mean. They're just trying to help you out, seeing as you're new. Double posting and triple posting is against the board rules, so when they saw you doing those things, they were letting you know to just edit the post with the new content or wait until someone else has posted. That way, you know for the future and don't have to be reminded by a mod or get an infraction.

Oh, and @ Jakor Jakor one note I want to make is that the demo CSS uses the name Olimar, rather than Pikmin and Olimar that's loaded in the Wii U/3DS roster. Could you change it to just Olimar for the next update?
