[QUOTE="gtg622r, post: 346423, member: 27683"] I couldn't decide between posting this question here or in the [I]Software and Applications[/I] forum, so hopefully this is the right place. I'm curious to know how everyone creates icons. I've been trying to create some of my own by altering others using GIMP.app. The problem I'm having is once I get the image created, how do I save it. It won't let me save it without an extension, and saving it as a *.png, for example, makes the icon the ".png file" icon. Trying to import that using CandyBar makes the applications icon the *.png file, not the newly created image. I've tried all different extensions, including *.ico and *.icns. Any thoughts? Do I need another application? [/QUOTE]
