Want a big pack of icons? Go here! New ones Starting 10th Sep: Specials 96x96 Icon in PNG & ICO Formats 48x48 Status Style Icon PNG & ICO Formats 32x32&48x48 Auraxis Icon just ICO Format 32x32 Enforcer Icon 32x32-128x128 Skull Icon (ICO file has all the sizes) Special Version of the 'Independence Through Force' Icon above. 16x16-128x128 - Re-did the 16x16 and 32x32 to look good at those sizes. All the implant/medkit status bar icons in one ICL file Custom Hart ICO File as below... 88x88 PNG I made some new icons 128x128 PNGs I will make another full .ICO set soon. Use 'em as forum avatars, desktop icons with the help of IconX for WinXP or Vista can do it natively I'm told... GO! Grab me on ICQ/AIM/etc if you wanna talk about sizes or requests Made some .ICO ones a while back (not as nice but still funky!) I did // ones! Some neutral ones too Forum members go here for groovy ways to customise windows more! Posted in the Observation Deck to get a little feedback.... Had a few people ask about the sizes, so here goes... 32x32 is the default size for icons in Win9x-XP (Vista is a bit different) 48x48 is 'large' icon is in Win9x-XP XP supports up to 96x96 normally, 128x128 can be done with tweak utils and what not, these are 128x128! That's pretty big. Vista will support up to 256x256 PNG Icons. (so should work with these) If you are on WindowsXP and don't want to use 3rd party software you'll have a 32x32 desktop icon, not as pretty as it could be. Open up regedit (start>run>regedit) go to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Desktop\WindowMetrics and look for Shell Icon Size on the right, this is set to 32 by default, up it to 48,64,96 or 128 to get bigger icons This change will affect all icons, desktop and in My Computer/Windows Explorer and will only take affect after you restart. Don't want to edit the registry? Try this... Quote: Steps for changing desktop icon size. 1. Right Click Desktop + Choose �Properties� 2. In the Properties Window click on the �Appearance Tab� at the top. 3. In the Appearance Window click on the button called �Advanced� 4. In the Advanced Appearance Window choose �Item:� from the drop down list and choose �Icon� and you can choose desired Icon size. By default many users will see 32 x 32 pixels but this can be changed to whatever you want. Converting these to normal Windows Icons (.ICO)?? I've found a nice simple way to do it! Quote: ConvertICO is a Free Online Converter - fast (you don't need to install the software and you don't need to register) and easy to use (you need only 3 clicks to convert the PNG or ICO file) - which allows you to convert PNG to ICO (Windows Vista compatible) and ICO to PNG format files. http://www.convertico.com/ Forum Members please take a look here for anything else I'm working on.

Pretty much, JPEGS are a pain to edit tho, the colours bleed into each other and the end result is not as nice as I'd like sometimes (see that cavern gate above, must redo that one) Sun Sep 14, 2008 2:07 pm haywire Leader Joined: 14 May 2004 Posts: 7102 Location: UK Some other wallpapers in my gallery but these are the newest.

I dunno if thats my laptop of what, but yeah, that and when they are being moved around ( i had to re-arrange them because of their size) Some left like ghost bits, part of the gauss barrel and the 150mm barrel from the vanny and the left wing of the ntu silo. just some findings I have for you in my "beta" testing... once again it could be my laptop because often when I am group selecting the bunch of icons I get the drag box outline sticking but, no big deal, minor annoyances Edit: Changing the icon size to 96x see what that does =D And it does..... fix the problem, no more vertical lines and no more ghost bits.. so there you go with XP to get minimal problems go with 96x as the highest.

There has to be another setting, like the spacing settings or something you need to edit as well then. If 96x96 works then go with that Also you may need to increase your icon cache size, think there is a setting in TweakUI for that.
