Locked icons

Jon,

You are right, there are lots of shareware and inexpensive commercial
programs for handling icons. They let you do nice things, like have
transparent areas (i.e. non-rectangular appearance), etc. Let's see if
Bob had any artwork in mind first, if not I guess I'll make something simple
up. Then we can see if the simple program I already have will be good
enough for now. If not then after that I'll check out some of the tools
available for download.

Robin,
Before I retired I had a program on the computer at work that made
icons. Can't remember the name of it. Real simple program but as it was
some time ago it was probably 16 color also.
Download.com has all sorts of icon creators, like 121 programs. I
would
try but am not an artist so not sure how they would turn out. Looks like
some do a picture capture and create an icon out of it.

It's so generous of you to think I might have some artistic ability!

Unfortunately, I really don't, and I hadn't thought beyond trying to shrink something like one of the logo images that Jim Wellman created:

(which is 160x135)

(which is 210x152)

There's also a small DCC logo (83x75) we could use at:



But those are all too large...
