LAUNCHicons
The icon has evolved!
Tuesday, March 2, 2010 by ChaNinja | Discussion: New Releases
Hi there Wincustomizers!
Allow me to present ... LAUNCHicons! (pronounced: launchi - cons)
In a nutshell: Animated desktop gadgets for launching applications, documents, folders and websites. And then some.
Its something that I've wanted to do for a long time, and thanks to Stardock and DesktopX Pro, I have finally been able to realize it.
View Video Tour / Tutorial HERE
You can view animated previews and download the other LAUNCHicons from the official LAUNCHicons web site (which was launched today! =D):
Only 3 LAUNCHicons are available so far, but once things have settled with the site you can expect many many more.
Your feedback is essential, please let me know what you think, either here or at the site.
Hope you like them!

PS: Admins, I have been trying to upload to the DesktopX Gadgets gallery but I keep getting the "Preview link is not valid" error I think it is trying to upload the zip as the preview. Please let me know when this is sorted.

WOW! Bloody fantastic! Been trying to register at the site, but whenever I hit the activation link it says an error has occurred. I have tried three activation emails, but it won't work. Even tried entering the code too....... No joy

Thanks so much guys! 
natas2: I'm afraid they can't be used with ObjectDock.
BoXXi: Sorry about that, you are now registered. Please login at the site.
I have just uploaded a Video Tutorial/Tour on YouTube here : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OC5yb1D0sIg
Please have a look.
Thanks again,

Nothing like a demo to show off the capabilities of a new app. With resizing and recoloring it should be able to fit in very well on most desktops.
A very nice job and eager to see what icons you add..

The video tut was very nicely done! I enjoyed it very much, now that's what I call a photoshop shortcut!

Thanks. These Launchicons are of such high quality that 3 peop,e have asked me about them already!
Cha... you've got a real winner here! I think you'd better take over the old Hummer factory because you're gonna need a production line for these!
