Were can i download PowerIcon?

A4000_Mad: There's lots of Png Icons available on aminet - they have their own directory.

I made a few of those, btw. Although they are not your typical icons. People seem to like my Guitar icons, but the Flower Icons may be a bit too 'girly' for some people.

Personally, I get a big laugh over other's pizza and cheese icons   :lol:

Solution: Let PowerIcons run. Put the RAM Disk icon where you want it and snapshot. Open a shell and type the following:

Copy RAM:disk.info S:ram.info

Then edit your startup-sequence and add the following line after PowerIcons runs:

Copy S:ram.info RAM:disk.info

Your solution has fixed it thank you very much indeed moto :-)

The odd thing is that I have not changed the Ram Disk or any of my partition or drawer icons to PNG. So far I have only run PowerIcons to be able to see the great demo icons. Oh well!

:cheers:

If I recall correctly (and who knows these days)  :-D   The ram disk isn't actually 'real'. When you:

Copy RAM:disk.info S:ram.info

you actually create a real icon in a real place and THEN you can Snap it where you want for all eternity.
Or something like that.

@ cecilia

Thanks for the links. I'll go and get some more icons now :pint:

My pleasure. I love to see all the Png icons people have made - they are such fun. It's THIS type of silly nonsense that has always made me love the Amiga.

I don't suppose things have advanced now so that you could use something similar to CopyIcon44 to simply drop a photo you fancy in the left window and then drop a drawer/partition/tool in the right window and get a nice PNG icon for it?

I think it's only available for MorphOS.

At least I haven't seen it for OS4 and I haven't seen anything like that for OS3.9

.....So if you see a photo on the Internet that you would like as a PNG icon to use with PowerIcons, how should you proceed? (just briefly) I guess you would have to reduce it to a small size first which is no problem at all.

As this question has been asked before I (cleverly)  :lol: wrote this little explaination of how to make a PNG icon if you are using IFX. Just download the PDF.

If you don't have IFX (What??!!), last I looked the steps should be understandable enough in most other image making programs. If you have questions, just ask me.
