Ive started work on some op2 theme pics for windows.

Edit - Scroll Down

Download the ICO files. To install (on xp) goto desktop, right click, goto Properties, goto Desktop tab, click Customize Desktop, select Recycle Bin and click Change Icon.

Nice!! Good thinking.
It will be even cooler if we add the sound produced when the truck dumps its load.

Hey lev, make the white, instead of white, transparent, makes it look better

One improvement: cargo should be rubble instead of metals

These are fantastic!

Now I can finally have my dream desktop!

Great job Levi (thumbsup)

The honking is only annoying when people ping the s*** out of me or say my name when im not in the irc window. Nice Icons

. I think im going to try to make some icons but still op2 style.

How the hell do you make .ico files? Photoshop and Fireworks have failed me, and my icons show up like blobs. I kno they have to be 30 sq px, and under a certian size limit (3 kb or... 3k kb, i don't remember) but other than that, i'm doing something wrong...

convert your pics to ico files with IrfanView.

Ezekel · « **Reply #17 on:** July 22, 2005, 03:20:30 PM »

i just save it as a bmp in paint and then change the file name extension

that usually works for me

That's a hack that works on some systems and doesn't work on others. Also, for the most part, you generally won't get good transparencies.

Look for any free icon editors (IconEdit is the one I found)... they work great.

as long as ur icon is 10X10 pixel you can convert it without modification (not exactly sure because i worked on that 5 years ago on a art class...)
