WolfX2 Posted July 25, 2006 Share Posted July 25, 2006 For those of you that don't know: I work with graphics and photo-shop allot and I've always thought some of the things that I've made would look good as icons, but I've never found an easy way to change them to ICOs....NOW, those days are over i stumbled on this little diamond and it was just too great not to share!Aveicon...all you have to do is drag a PNG file into the PNG section (the one on the right) and once its done converting, just drag the ICO file out of the ICO section and on to the desktop or into any folder. You can even turn a ICO into a PNG if you want to use it for a dock or something!by now your probably wondering where you can download this from, you can get it herehope you like it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mangix Posted July 25, 2006 Share Posted July 25, 2006 I just tried the program and it seems like the max dimensions for an icon are 128x128. i tried converting a 256x256 PNG file and the maximum was 128x128. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeremy Posted July 26, 2006 Share Posted July 26, 2006 Then reduce your image by 50% before using AveIcon on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DigeratiPrime Posted July 26, 2006 Share Posted July 26, 2006 This is an oldie but excellent free program. Can Windows even show a 256px icon? That would probably be a huge file too.I did post about this before too http://www.msfn.org/board/index.php?showto...&hl=aveicon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
