How about a new exe icon?
on: October 15, 2003, 04:25:12 pm
The freespace exe icon is starting to look a bit old.
Its quite blocky.

Perhaps someone could make a new one?

Yep, why not a few of us have a go at it and let RT pick his favourite, seeing as it's his launcher it'll be the icon for ;)

Agreed, you should use Sesq's SCP logo/avatar scheme for the new icon. :nod:

Maybe have a poll to choose the best of 10 (if that many turn up).
As for the launcher I might see if I can get away with keeping my paw icon for a bit longer. :nervous:

What can you use to make icons, anyway? We could have mod-specific icons :)

I *believe* any image can be converted into an icon with the right software, don't quote me though.

I'll see what I can do.  I happen to own microangelo and just happen to be bored for a few days.

WMC: I'll make something to that effect sometime.

UT: I've been meaning to make an Inferno icon, i'll see what I can do with some of the others.

I think it's basically just a 32x32 bitmap with an *.ico extension.  IIRc, the top-left pixel colou8r dictates the transparency colour.

BTW - I like Sticks' one :)
