I've found IconDeveloper to be quite useful so far, but (whether it's possible or not) I'd like to see the option to add drop shadows and maybe even reflections.

Also, while IconDeveloper imports images and converts tham 'as is', would it be possible to include tools to smooth/round edges of images to give a cleaner look to the finished ICO??

Harsh criticisms are welcomed as well. 

• What do you use it for the most?  Recoloring? Resizing?
  
• Is the flow good?
• Is there anything you wish it *did* do?

Yeah, that's more or less what I was trying to say.... cos sometimes, as hard as I try to clean up my  images in PSP, relics have appeared once the icon is made.   The ability to clean/tweak images in the final stage of icon production would be excellent, but also a background that better shows up imperfections would be nice.

Now that would be a bonus.... the icon gallery over at DA has quite a few OS-X dedicated icons that 'd look good in a Windows environment.

Also, enabling the Alpha Channel when batch converting images... at present I'm finding it disabled for bulk conversions

I got a reply on this request >HERE< (note that the reply was posted after I reposted the suggestion here, so I'm not a crossposting freak ), and it seems like we have a shot on getting it.

I just took a look... sounds promising and something to look forward to.

I haven't used it because I don't have that much of time.

I will try it later in summer vacation...

Still I would like it to be capable of.......

Texture Brush or Fill.

Add, Place & Resize Cliparts.

Containers For Icons eg spheres, cubes, pyramids etc.

Anti-aliasing (at edges)

Some effects filters.. morph, border, glow, fill with shapes, snow, rain, lines, glitter etc...

Sorry If I am talking silly, I have no experience of creating icons...

A very nice feature would be if IconDeveloper could be used to change the "embedded" icon of an .exe file.

Google finds dozens of such utilities, I dare to try none of those.

Hi !

I use IconDeveloper  ocasionaly, but so far it's the StarDock tool  that I use most.

I use IconDeveloper to Create Icons to my Folders, so that  the Image gives me a quick Idea of what is inside.  It may seem too simple, but  along the day it saves a precious time.

My Feed back is;

1. But.., IconDeveloper  it's not a quite friendly tool. No !  It's  very simple, but I did not find out  how to change the Size the Icon appears  in front of the folder
2. It does not "See" the  .dll icons  that I can choose from the  System32,  those standard  Windows Icons.
3. I cannot  save as a .dll !!  I also don't know  IF  it worths !!??
4. The PREVIEW  should show us How exactly  the Icon will appear,  with its real Size.
5. It  "suggest's" too much !  I don't know  to choose, e.g.,  It does not say much to me 256x256  or 16x16 !! What is that ?  It should  say HOW BIG would be the File of the Icon.
6. I should ASK  --> How will I use this Icon,  In a File manager, or  ..., 
7. The  Color  adjust tool works good, surprised me the way I can change the color of something,  but  it's difficult to come back to the original color, I had to close without saving and  open again.
8. I DO RECOMMEND  that you  DON'T  ABANDON  the IconDeveloper because it's a great tool  and  there is not much programs like this. So.. it worths to maintain  and  I, of course would purchase an upgraded version.

That's my Feed back
