thanks

I hope I have in the next days enough time to continue programming the Icon-Creator ...
But at the moment, the school has prevail.

Theoretically, it is already possible ...
But I haven't seen such Icons such as 22x22 pixels, yet.

ico and png?

Yes, at the moment I'm working, that my Icon-Creator could do 32bit icons.

Why not add load PNG with transparency backdrop ?

Well, you also can load PNGs with transparentcy backdrop. But until now, you have to choose the transparent color.

Ok, thanks for testing ...
in my next version i will do it!

Hello,
my Icon-Creator 2.0 is ready!

And now it's also available in English language.

Here a screenshot:

What size from and to?

Well, the biggest ones have 128x128 pixels.

Programming is not about copy&pasting, it's about learning and creating. So I would also suggest that you read a paper on dithering, or at least fully read and understand what you are coding / porting. If you don't understand the code, don't bother to use it - that's my general rule and it works at ...

May I ask why you want to do this? Because if you're looking for a smaller filesize for the image, at 32*32 you're not gaining much by going to indexed colors. Maybe 20-25% at best if you want to keep much quality. It's at the larger image sizes you start to realize big filesize improvements ...

Does someone have a code example for me?
(Well, i don't really understand, how to do this ...)

Hello,

I want to convert the depth of a image from 24bit to 8bit ...
Important!: It doesn't matter what colors that are (that needn't be the 256 standart colors); its only important that the image then only have 256 colors.

I tried to do it like this code:

Hello,
I need some Information about 24-bit-icons.
In google I haven't found anything, yet.
Can you help me?

I already know this Code ...
Had almost forgotten that he still exists. Thank you!

Thanks, but I know this site, too.
I will read it twice, maybe it will help.

Well,
only a little ...
Some other ideas?

I have found this Website: http://flocke.vssd.de/prog/research/dficocur/ but it's not enough.
