| 856277 | 2010-02-08 06:25:00 | I'm trying to make custom icons for some of my folders, but windows is displaying them as tiny thumbnails, even though the image is 200x200. Does anyone know how I can get them to display at the same size as the default icons? | sammo450 (13626) | ||
| 856278 | 2010-02-08 07:03:00 | Did you save them as .ico files?? | jwil1 (65) | ||
| 856279 | 2010-02-08 08:34:00 | Yes. I tried ico and bmp, both get resized. | sammo450 (13626) | ||
| 856280 | 2010-02-08 08:43:00 | I've made icons in the past, not recently, but they are usually 32x32 pixels and around 766bytes. The last one I made was for Win98, a transparent icon to hide shortcut arrows :) Google says there are several freeware icon makers around: www.bestfreewaredownload.com http://icofx.ro/ There are also freeware files of varied icons that can be downloaded. |
