Is there any place I can download 9 patch PNGs? [duplicate]

Question

Are there any central spots or collection in the net from created NinePatches?

I think they are real fancy and useful things. Even if you are not a designer this can bring you great benefit and look. But I think it would be great if there would be some collections for this in the internet as they are available for icons. But I didn't found anything useful. So I ask you if know such spots or webpages?

Answer 1

I am trying to build a huge central for 9-patch images.

Feel free to visit and grab whatever you need from there.

As long as it is for building your android applications :)

Answer 2

There are a couple of blogs out there with a few images:

• http://ogrelab.ikratko.com/custom-color-buttons-for-android/

and one posting a batch converter:

• http://stella.laurenzo.org/2011/05/batch-9-patch-image-editing/

But they are quite easy to create yourself. Use the dev guide, those blogs and my answer here: How to create android spinner without down triangle on the right side of the widget to learn about them.

Then, just use draw9patch or Gimp (both free) to make them.
