Hey, thanks for the open source compass. I don't know whether you are still maintaining this, but I've swapped the image for that of a real compass, put in a dial background, eliminated the jitter (on my phone, anyway), and put in an option to invert the colors (black/white). Let me know what you think; hoping you will publish the changes.

Thanks, looks good!
This was my first Android app, good to see it cleaned up and better graphics put in :-)
I've had a quick skim.
Can you just confirm where the compass images came from? Just want to make sure they are free from copyright issues.

Thanks for writing back.

The compass image is from Wikipedia:

The background dial came from a university site:

Looks like their licence might be a bit problematic... Maybe better to just
recreate the dial graphic from scratch... I'll see if I can find time to do
that.

I am just a user of it but I actually like the original graphics more. :) The suggested graphics has too many colors and is unnecessarily big. And I think that adding a configurable graphics is not ideal for just a damn compass app.
