Thread 3a7eb847

To everybody: If anyone is interested, I’m happy to share the Photoshop file (CS5) for this icon. The colors can all be changed with a single shape layer, so you can use whatever base color you like. I just ask for attribution if you distribute it beyond private use. If you’re interested, just contact me through the contact form and I’ll send out links.

This is a very basic question, but how do you go about generating an icon file from PhotoShop CS5?

If you have the Developer Tools installed, use a transparent PNG and Icon Composer in the utilities. Otherwise, there are a few websites and cheap/free applications that can do the trick. I have a free one I liked, but lost it. As soon as I find it, I’ll post a link.

Thanks! I kept looking for an export filter specific to icon files in CS5 and drew a blank. PNG and Icon Composer it is!
