you said it there.. the quality vary


IMO there have been some wonderful icons in the Kick 1.3 days. But they aren´t in collections, so you have to search through many PD-disks to find them. And you have to recolor them, as the palette was different to AmigaOS 2.0/3.1.

.... looks like i have to make some of the icon myself... what good icon maker is there for amiga?


IconEdit and inspiration is really all you need. I have made dozens of my own icons with it. Shy away from converting other images - the quality won´t stand up to your expectations.

and is there a viewer of the amiga .info files for windows??


Not as far as I know. But you can use UAE to view them on your windows box. I always felt that there should be some kind of workbench replacement for Windows, but was too lazy to write one myself. Maybe I should try to write an icon-reader in Hollywood someday, but I don´t expect to have it ready any time soon.

My friend and I are working on a tiny 4-colour iconset for Workbench.


Oh,:) exchange pink for orange, green or blue and remove the hearts backdrop and I would have liked this look on my A500. The icons are neither too playful nor too boring, which can be a difficult balance. I prefer the classic roadside trashcan to all these office paper basket thingies however.

Nice job!

(BTW.  IconEdit was of course called IconEd in WB 1.3 and had a slightly different UI)
