Thank goodness, Harryu you are a saviour (exaggerated)!!!
maybe this should be in the sticky(that website address)

Thank you, i really appreciate it. Happy coding/living/owning.


yours jkr

Infranview(free image viewer) works. Just crop and save any image into a windows .ico icon file. Good enogh for me. Because you have all your normal art tools available to you.

to the post aqbove me:
no it doesnt work like that, if u do then your .ico
will be very funny if the pic u used is too high in bit,
windows need your icon transparent data to display correctly
which maybe icon creator can do properly. It is not as simple as
cut and paste.
