Created a little fun application to test something in blitz+ You draw an icon in it, then upload it to an online gallery. Check it out http://iconfun.acsv.net It uses the new script run feature added to b+ to create a form from b+ data, and then sends it to a php script using the POST method.

Now, if only somebody would put together a simple, free app that lets you save a .ico file... :)

Thanx, joncom2000, that'll give me a start. Any chance on updating it to handle 16x16x16 icons, so's I can make a favicon for my web site? Sorry 'bout the hijack, skn3[ac]!

IrfanView can convert to icons.

9572AD (Posted 2004) [#9]

Aye, but IrfanView's conversions are sub-standard, and a favico made with it is not recognized by IE. I almost never convert anything to anything with Irfan -- it's a handy little viewer, but the other features aren't to be trusted.
