No, but checking the ID and changing if necessary is a good feature to add. In the meantime, you can use CustomizeMii or this batch file:
Title ID Changer.zip

Just wondering if you ever made the changes to your forwarder converter tool, I would like to add it to something I'm working on.

Well as you know, I've got some other projects going, and I'll probably be too busy to make such changes anyway. I did try it out and I was unable to find method to detect the current title ID. You can print it with Sharpii, but because of the special characters that precede it (I believe it was a colon), I couldn't grab it from a text file.

I found out the other colors were hiding on my mediafire account, so I've updated and converted them.

Joostin,
I want a different Homebrew Channel Forwarder that you don't have.
Could I safely take the 00000000.APP File Out of the Homebrew Channel Forwarder I want, and place it in an extracted wad from one of your forwarders, and change the ID?
It starts with Z, so, I think it will show in wide screen like yours do.
Thank you!

Extract the boot.dol with CustomizeMii, put it in the new one, then run the new wad through Convert2vWii.

Did the trick. Thanks for this.

Just a reminder, download any of the ones you might want in the future. If TT ever updates the HBC, I'm taking these down. I've never felt comfortable about redistributing modified versions of their banner.

I downloaded all of them a few weeks ago.

Are you losing sleep over that, it's not like you hacked the hackmii installer and selling it in a package for hacking your Wii. If you take down the channels then maybe TT will release a new HBC, did you ever think that it was a workaround like this is the reason they never updated the HBC?
