Default WBFS HD: Can I repartition?

I want to use Uniiloader with covers. It needs a partition with covers, but my HD is now one partition wbfs only.

Can I reorganize it withou loosing the data? With Partition Magic or something?

Id advise against it. Me scalling a partition down resulted in occasional in game frezes. And Scaling up resulted in complete unusability. You might have better luck but I wouldnt chance it.

Is it really? So I have to extract every image from the drive to my harddisk and alter the HD, then move everything back?

What it is wise to do? How big should the FAT partition be?
For UniiLoader it is only to hold max 100 large covers.
Don't know if there are other applications using a fat partition...!?

ps: somebody who had good results with resizing partitions?

Very few, if any, had luck in repartitioning. It is much safer to just extract all the images (if you don't have the images stored on your computer already) then partition it. I would say 1-2 GB would be more than enough of space for the FAT partition even if you were planning on using it for other applications. Unless you were planning on downloading a homebrew such as GutarFun which requires you to store songs and such onto the USB.
