webfork, this can be made with almost any icon editors (Greenfish Icon Editor Pro and IcoFX, both in the database, come to mind). Just open the .exe, .dll, etc. with them and you are ready to go. With the advantage that you can make some retouches if necessary.webfork wrote:Just found a great use for this program when submitting programs to the database:
Previously I was using a rather lengthy process with Windows Explorer, Greenshot, and RIOT to get files down to 32x32 so this discovery is a huge time saver for perfectly-sized icons.
- Launch program and navigate the file manager to a given EXE file
- Right-click on the file, select View and choose Dll Inspector from the submenu
- In the window that appears, click on the 32x32 icon and choose Export Selected Image as below:
- Save the PNG file to upload to the new entry (ideally use a program like PNGOptimizer to help reduce file size)
