What's with all the broken icons (OS4)?

@Aegis

not sure why this isn't included, but try installing the PNG icon module from os4depot.net (download link). you'll need to install it in LIBS:IconModules and restart workbench. i remember doing this on my SAM years and years ago, but i haven't had to on any of my machines since. i wonder if it wasn't included in the classic version for some reason? no idea.

as for third-party libraries, loads of OS3.x software requires the same in my experience. was there some specific software you were referring to?

edit: cgutjahr beat me to the submit button. heh.

... my icons usually come from elsewhere so if I don't realise it's PNG I won't convert it.  Although I can't actually remember how to convert them off-hand.

i just use ssolie's converter: http://os4depot.net/index.php?function=showfile&file=graphics/convert/pngicon2amiga.lha
