Software News   Software News : 24 bit PNG icons for OS 3.5/3.9
   posted by Anonymous on 19-Oct-2003 10:17:19 (10368 reads)
Elena Novaretti has produced a superb PNG icon patch for OS 3.5/3.9 which lets you use PNG icons, like those in Morph OS.

Update: For a quick comparison: MikeB's classic icons and png icons with patch installed.


Download PowerIcons.

Have tested this on a A1200 060 with Mediator and Voodoo 3 and it ran very well.

Don't be a prick! It's the first time I answered to you and I got the wrong Idea, so what!? What's your point? Was I that caused all these stirr on you?

BTW- how do you know if this 'patch' isn't good enough to Hyperion apply it in their icon.system >>Native<
PS-My native languase is :PORTUGUESE

Hi!

I just converted some Crystal PNG Icons to standard 256color GlowIcons. While using PowerIcons just for "not using Pens" the look ist nearly the same than PNG Icons except that the Alphachannel is missing...

Here´s the current work:



Any comments?

Looking nice Micha1701. Perhaps you could consider creating an archive with your redone glowicons in and uploading for others to use.

Hi!

Of course I will upload them on AmiNET when they are ready....

But first I have to wait for the answer from the original author - but i think he has nothing against this conversion...

@Micha1701

Nice work, would imagine they probably look better in one respect - the glow and the transparent dragging which wouldn't get with the PNG originals. What tool did you use to convert them? IconEdit?

I used Irfanview to convert all PNGs to 256color GIFS.
Then I converted them to IFFs with GFXCon (it cannot handle PNGs, AFAIK).
After that I load them into IconEdit to make them Glow...
Lots of work...

Currently I finished 84 icons - 190 to go....
