Thank you for sharing. There are a lot of icon editors out there but it's so hard to find something single that just works.

I very much like your Icon-Creator program, especially the straightforward way in which transparency is handled. Many image editors are unnecessarily complex in this area.

However I have one request: Please enable .ico files to be opened as sometimes a published/downloaded .ico image needs tweaking to change the transparency setting and it would be nice to use your program to do this.

I second that request.
Just make it load ico files and it will be my only icon editor

Edit:And an option to save the icons first image as a PNG with transparency support...for creating PB Linux icons, that would make it perfect

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

A nice program that uses the KISS principle.

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

Nice job !

Is it possible to have the choice of personalized size (22x22, I'm thinking of POI for GPS) for example ?

Thomas II · Post by **Thomas II** » Sat Feb 02, 2008 1:14 pm

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