hey,
I'm not sure if this is the right place to ask this so don't hesitate to move it if needed!
Ok well, I want to use this custom icon for my game. In a pc magazine I found a program to can convert images to ICO files. So far so good but I have another problem. I can't manage to get the icon the right colordepth without getting a absolutely hiddious one. I've downloaded the program mentioned in the manual but it reduces the colors in an very ughly way. I tried to reduce the colors with photoshop first and then convert it but this didn't work either.
Some help is appretiated :) Thanks in advance
Irfanview will allow you to save an image as .ICO, and it's free:

I haven't had any problems using Irfanview with high colour icons, though I think you may have to run windows XP if you want high colout icons.
I hope I didn't misunderstand your problem,
Ali
