The only way I've been able to find is by creating the 32 pixel image only
(don't create the 16 pixel icon -- apparently you're supposed to let the OS
handle the scaling), using only the base 16 windows colors, and doing minor
editing/removal of pixelization until the size fits.
In an era of 8 bit icons (and even 24 bit, even on Windows) why is this size
restriction still in place?
I seem to recall reading that there may be certain Windows apps that create
icons with the required specs, but if someone does indeed have a formula for
this, I'm sure the list would appreciate hearing what it is.
Regards,
Scott
