 Or how to do an icon in photoshop CS2. Thanx for a great site mates  | |
vajlent Profil: New Penguin | | |
TPDK Profil: Penguin Pro | and now you can use this icon, I just simply cropping your picture. But if you want to make it yourself, you can see the tutorials for photoshop or Gimp on the website. | |
vajlent Profil: New Penguin | And how do i convert the png into a desktop icon? Cant find a tutorial about that. | |
k_millio Profil: Penguin Pro | | |
vajlent Profil: New Penguin | I dont understand a thing? | |
TPDK Profil: Penguin Pro | use the website that K-millio has mention, to convert your .png file into .ico file, necessary to change your shortcuts on your desktop. | |

All you have to do is give the path of your png file in that online conveter and hit 'Convert' then you'll get the Ico file  Or you can download AveIcon Converter2 and convert your png files in to icons (you just have to drag & drop thm ) | |
Gruzz Profil: Moderator | logold8.ico Here you are, I did this using the ConvertIcon site. Welcome to CrystalXP!  | |

You must download AveIcon  When you download, and open the application, It'll look like this
 Then all you have to do is drag your .png file in to the right box and your icon will be generated automatically  | |
TPDK Profil: Penguin Pro | you cannot see this link as a picture, you have to save the file ! and please, search on the forum about png/ico conversion and how to use icon file, there are lots of english topics about this subject. | |
lukeholmes Profil: Penguin | One question though... I have GIMP and Photoshop but can CS2 save .ico files? I know GIMP can but I have tried with CS2 and failed... | |
Gruzz Profil: Moderator | This is not possible within Photoshop, except if you download an plugin like this one. Good luck! | |
Neil Chances are not had but gained....... Profil: Penguin Pro | And also you can use a program (gadjet) like AvIcon converter to convert the designs you've made as pngs using Photoshop or Gimp in to icons  | |
lukeholmes Profil: Penguin | Gruzz, thanks a ton bro! That plug-in rocks! | |
lukeholmes Profil: Penguin | Hey Guys, The plug-in Gruzz gave me the link for works great! But I found a better solution... I have Axialis (Corporate) and I simply installed the Photoshop Plug-in for it and then transfer it to Axialis and then you get to save it in many sizes, etc... Much better!  | |

Yes, Axialis IconWorkshop is a sweet program and that feature you skimmed on 'exporting' is just one of the great things you can do. If anyone is interested in downloading a trial version, click here  | |
lukeholmes Profil: Penguin | Yeah, Axialis is a great program... I think its the best for Icons... | |
Neil Chances are not had but gained....... Profil: Penguin Pro | Well, you also can use AvIcon to get icons files from 16x16 up to 128x128  But Axialis is a great software  | |
lukeholmes Profil: Penguin | Is AvIcon freeware? Cause Axialis costs.... *grrr* lol | |

Yes ofcourse  AveIcon Converter2 | |
Draginol Profil: Penguin Pro | I was just reading the link in your post, many people are saying that the application doesn't work for them. Just tried for me and it doesn't work That's odd. | |

wired !! When you download it, you just have to open the application and then you only have to drag an icon to be converted in to Png or a png to be converted in to an icon  before you do this, just right click on the box for the icons and make sure you've selected at least one dimention from the menu  Update:* I've just checked with a fresh download from that above link, what can I say, It works  | |
