PowerIcons on AmigaOS 4.0!

very nice indeed!!!

i think you are missing a point here. having the ABILITY to use png icons is a good thing. the User decides WHICH PNG icons appear on his/her wb.

Cecilia . . .i love you

:lol: thank you! I love you too!

I totally agree

as an artist i feel it's my "job" to see the 'big picture' and keep people focused on that, instead of nitpicking about unimportant issues.

sure, there are icons i don't like the look of...... mostly windows icons! i like alot of linux-style icons because they are FUN.

while it's important to have an "amiga Look", it's also important to understand that having an amiga means the user has total control over their system and can create their own personal look.
and THAT'S what we want from a computer and why most of us have stayed loyal to amiga - in whatever form it takes! :-D

Are they just .png files, or are they "real" icons with tooltypes

both.
you make them in a paint program. save them as PNG. name them "blah.info"

they magically become icons.  :lol:

if you open "Information" on these icons, you can change the tool types in there.

on MOS if I want to use an icon as a drawer, I create a dir and (re)name the icon the name of the dir. (I assume it works the same on an amiga with powericons)
simple.
