Sunday, July 8, 2007 by kimlangouet | Discussion: Skinning

Hi all..

I have microsoft vista and want to know how to make an icon package that works with it?? I have been given permission by another skinner to use his iconpackage. As his package is for XP and everytime I try and upload it.. all the live folders go really teeny tiny in my C drive and I was wondering if there is some way I can fix this to keep the folders the same size??

Any help would be greatly apreciated

Here is a couple of articles to have a read through.  They describe some of the changes, and challenges of icons in Windows Vista.

If you are using IconDeveloper remember there is a box you need to tick in the options somewhere. I just found this out the other day.
