Who cant PNG Icons be seen on an Amiga OS3.9 NON grafix board system, when PNG pictures can?

It would be great to have PNG Icons on my 1200 using OS3.9 but I have no mediator like I used to have in the past.

TIA

Mike.


To be honest, while I don't understand why you'd want to use PNG Icons on an Amiga this package on AmiNet should allow you to do so... :)

@ swift240

I see... but if you have FBlit installed then memory problems would be thing of the past when using icons or 256 colour WB screens in 3.9 (as they'll use your FastMem instead)... :)

while we are on that topic. Who had the stupid idea to rename PNGs to .info without adding the metadata? And why do some developers assume that OS4 users will know how to make them visible?

Well at least I don“t. Am I the only one?


It's because most developers are your real hardcore nerdy geek types and think everybody should think like them and miraculously have all the same knowledge that they have... :)

Also some of them do it deliberately just to make themselves feel superior to us mere mortals... ;)
