Amiga icons for Windows XP? Where to find or make?
« on: October 10, 2008, 04:32:44 PM »
I run UAE on my windows system.  I have a shortcut on my Windows desktop that leads to the drawer in my Amiga file system where I store graphics I create with Amiga apps.  This way, I can quickly get at them to use in Windows apps.

Instead of the standard file folder icon windows makes, I'd like to have a nice folder with a boingball on it or something, so stand out as an Amiga files folder.  I'm new to windows, is there any way to do that?

U can change the icon in windows by right-clicking on the file or folder, and slecting properties and then select change icon

U can create an icoe usin the paint application or converting an amgia icon to .bmp

hope this helps
