Man, if only there was a mac icon conversion thread like this one... :ninja:

Even though I'm not a fan of the 'luna' type icons, you guys have done an incredible job on recreating them, and ?I find it funny that they are better quality then those that come with XP by default.:laugh::

Well most are based on Microsoft's icons they packed in to the tour we only adapt, we create occasionly.

There would be no point in a Mac icon thingie because mac icons come in 128.

hahaha true

well lets make them in 512 then

hahhaah

ITV1 From Scratch:

Ok,this was more difficult.I say 8 minutes.Right? :D

Nice icon btw.Do you start at 128x128 when you make the icons from scratch? I usually start from 200x200 and then resize it to 128x128

Previosly I did all crcles because that's all I could do, but now I use the image opimiser and I have to specify width and height... that's why the ITV one is a tad to high on 128. Annoying

I make them from scratch at 128x128. That way you get the line weights just how you want them. If you make them at 200x200 then resize them to 128x128 it's gonna look slightly [only very slightly] different from your original image.

Makes sense to make the image at what size you're going to use it at [in most cases] :)

If anything I'll double my size to 256x256 when creating so that way I'm not having my image get all distorted. I haven't had any problems doing it that way - anyone else?

WOW,great work themonke! but you should remove the shadow from the circle in the middle.it has to be clear circle,and give it a bit more space between the squares and the circle.look at that icon from preview again and you'll see what i mean.It's very nice anyway,keep it as it is if you're lazy... :)

    • SpaceX reportedly plans a Starlink mobile service for U.S. consumers

      But we are talking about Elon Musk, no AT&T... I know big companies are evil, but Elon and his companies are in another level which is much more dangerous.
    • New PowerToys update fixes memory leaks and other issues

      By TarasBuria · Posted

      New PowerToys update fixes memory leaks and other issues by Taras Buria Another bug-fixing update is available for PowerToys version 0.100. After releasing version 0.100.1 with a bunch of bug fixes and patches, Microsoft pushed version 0.100.2 to address two important issues with one of Command Palette Dock's features. With PowerToys 0.100.2, Microsoft fixed the performance meter displaying incorrect values and memory leaks, which are particularly unwanted things in the current situation with overpriced PC hardware. Here is the changelog: Reverted a Performance Monitor dock refresh change that forced item refreshes on every metric update Fixed a memory leak in the Performance Monitor dock extension by reusing stable network upload/download band items instead of creating new list items on each refresh For those unfamiliar, Command Palette Dock is a relatively new addition to PowerToys. It is a taskbar-like tool that you can keep on top of the screen to pin various useful widgets, commands, and more. It can display time, weather, your PC's performance metrics, and more. Microsoft introduced the Command Palette Dock in March 2026 in PowerToys 0.98. Microsoft has dedicated documentation for Command Palette Dock, and you can check it out on the official Microsoft Learn website. You can update PowerToys to the latest version by going to Settings > General and clicking "Check for updates." Alternatively, you can download the installer from GitHub using this link. In other news, Microsoft is working on a new window-management utility for PowerToys. Called Alt Window Cycle, it will let you use the Alt + ` shortcut to switch between different windows in a single app. You can learn more about the tool here.
    • The Trump administration doesn't want you to use OpenAI's GPT-5.6 without its approval

      By Asgardi · Posted

      You did take leaf out of Trumps book already and had brexit - only to harm yourself. The same goes with this AI nonsense. The obvious solution for these companies is to move their head office to Brussels. I can see quite much irony there... 🙂

    • Windows 10 quietly gets one more year of support and updates

      By +Eternal Tempest · Posted

      Wonder if they are trying to slow down Linux traction (not saying this is the only factor) in the consumer space. With the most pressure probably being steam deck/box, etc.
