That's what it already has. It looks like File Manager on an old Windows system. The argument is, to make it integrate better into the host system, that it needs icons that look more host-system-ish. And I agree, though my favourite colour is blue, so maybe I'm biased :) 2009/4/18 André Hentschel <[email protected]>: > Hi, > thanks for your work, its great. i just patch my wine with it ;) > The only negativ point would be the color for me. i rather would see it in > "Windowsyellow" just to keep a bit of the look and feel. Making the icon(s) configurable would be a bonus. 2009/4/18 Reece Dunn <[email protected]>: > Yeah, AlphaBlending is not supported (hence the diagonals look jagged) > -- theming is also affected. > > NOTE: I have seen this happen on other Windows apps running on > Windows.

I believe *some* versions of the ANI/CUR/ICO formats support alpha channels, but I couldn't tell you where to look. Out of interest, what format do Vista/Windows 7 icons use, and do they support alpha channels? (I seem to recall some transparency effects on Vista icons, could be wrong).
