New desktop icons

[Roja]

Here are the new dragon icons for your desktop, you can download them if you want to:

 

http://www.eternal-lands.com/misc/eternallands.ico

 

http://www.eternal-lands.com/misc/mapeditor.ico

 

 

The map editor icon has the same name, so you should just replace the old one with this one. For the client icon, if you're on windows, right click on the desktop icon, click properties, click change icon and find the new one and apply it.

You may have to restart or log off/on windows for it to show up.

What about icons for people who don't use Windows?

sudo distro-package-manager install netpbm

winicontoppm eternallands.ico eternallands.ppm

ppmtopnm eternallands.ppm eternallands.pnm

pnmtopng eternallands.pnm eternallands.png

 

 

of course, proper use of *nix shell allows you to cut it down to one line, but hey, that's one process to make it into icons for you

[Rockfall]

Actually there should be 2 icons saved in that file.. a 32x32 version and a 48x48...not sure how that "2 versions in 1 .ico file" thing works..I would imagine if you have windows set to use larger icons it should just work, but if it doesn't maybe they're not saved correctly or something. I dont kow, this is the first time i got the damn .ico file to work correctly so i'm a newb

Sure, replace the old ones.

Agreed. A 128x128 bmp or png image would be nice. Both Linux and Mac can use much larger icons than PCs. Orochimaru, can you make one this big?

[Orochimaru]

I made the first one from the logo on the web site, so i needed to take the picture from the poll so i did not need to upscale it and loose quality, but i needed to make the gradients myself, i hope this looks ok. Format is PNG for transparency of the shadow.
