Really liking this, just one suggestion, can you make icons with black backgrounds please? I made my windows all black and red and now if I use an icon, there's this white square around it.
Great work on the icons though.

It would take too much effort, there's 51 icons.

The images on here have white backgrounds as I batched resized them or they are Jpegs, but the icons in the archives should have a transparent backgound.

Which icon has issues?
 
good job but can i just ask? why have you done hideous r4 ones? can't you just have a plain r4 one faceing left not right?

twiztidsinz has done one in this thread, so I didn't feel the need.

QUOTE(iMinotauro @ May 18 2010, 08:01 PM) Thanks, btw is there a way for the icons to show up in ubuntu?
I've no idea, the last Unix I used was DEC OSF/1.

I'll have a look tommorrow, i'm sure there's something on the web about it.
 
It is weird because my external hard drive has an icon that Ubuntu detects perfectly.
But when I insert my MicroSD it looks like a text file (I believe, can't remember).
 
It could be to do with the format of the Icon.

If you upload the icon and inf file from your External harddrive to mediafire, and tell me which icon it is you want, i'll repackage one in the same format.
 
iMinotauro I've got no problem with ubuntu I create an autorun.inf file at the root of the card with this content:
Code:
[Autorun]
icon=icon.ico
label=CYCLODS

and put the .ico file at the same place.

It works both on Ubuntu and Windows

It is perhaps just better to avoid space in name or long name.

if you want to try a tested one try the attached zip in my post here

Thanks tk_saturn for your amazing collection ;-)
 
If could repackage the ones with spaces if I get time and that is indeed the issue. I need to rebuild 8-9 of the icons anyway, one of which is the White Cyclo. It was careless of me to have spaces in the filenames.
 
Okay I'm here now.

Thank you both GH0ST and tk_saturn for the helping hand.

I'll give it another go, if the problem persists then I'll try Ghost's method and if that doesn't work I'll upload the icon stuff from my Harddrive so Saturn can take a look at it.

Will get back to you guys sooner or later.

*Edit- I went back to Windows, Ubuntu looked ugly.
So all this is irrelevant now, thanks anyways guys.

This place has an awesome community!

I have to say thank you for doing this. Even though I have a Mac, the icons you have look great and work wonderfully. Already using it with my CycloDS Evo and plan on throwing it on both my own and my friend's AK2i MicroSD card (setting it up with AKIAIO for him).

Someone should really sticky this thread. I almost forgot that these icons existed since it got buried in the forum.
