Hi everybody,
Yet, how do I do that.... I'm still having a Resedit somewehere on my laptop, running
Classic.... Then after I'm using the famous script
<http://www.intermapper.com/binaries/Convert_Custom_Icon_File.sit> to convert it....
So indeed, I agree with you concerning the fact, that we need all a sexy interface to
be able to integrate some new icons without having to use first the oldy couple
Resedit+Clasic and then the AScript mentioned... which is only working on .... a
Macintosh. Moreover, I agree that the use XPM or PNG images for icons would be a good
Idea.
So, would be an idea, to do things like that:
1- A normal folder with jpg images (pixel size has to be defined), in a folder
called, "Custom icons"...
=> convininent, easy to use, on any OS... First step just to be able
to pick them up.
2- A specific Table in a, for example, MySQL Database, describing the IM
objects, allowing to store the Icons stored inside the folder called "Custom icons"
All the best
Vincent
