Rare icon request

Though I've just submited a few icons to the ObjectDock skin area, I've been a visiter and registered user of WC for a long time. One thing easy to see is, there are too many icons for the "famous" programs, like Photoshop, Winamp, WMP... As I know, a lot of people use many other programs on their PC, and they can't find their OD icons anywhere, as well as they do not know how to create one themselves (as in my case before).
So, why don't we have an "open area" for those OD users to request for their favorite programs' icons? And those who can use graphical apps can create them. It's also a chance to improve your skills isn't it

?
I'll be the first... Any one need an icon? You can send me a screenshot of the origin icon, and I'll try to make it an OD one (128, 256, in PNG or ICO...).
Not so good in graphik, so I need the help from the pro gd!

What do you guys use to change the default icons to fantasic looks PNG's??

Successfully updated karma reason!

you can use Pngs in Object Dock found here https://www.stardock.com/products/objectdock/
Or you can create an icon (.ico) from the png image (or any image) with icon developer which can be found here. Then just right click on the icon you want to change and browse to find your new one.

Po, I feel ashamed for my "dragon" after seeing yours

Mine is not in 3D at all, and the color painting is like child-made (though I intended to do so).
I have no scanner or drawing table... So I took the dragon from Wikipedia and "trace" it. Here is the preview:

I have zipped a 128, a 256 and the PSD file. Please let me know if I should submit it to stand beside Po's dragon

To SD: I forgot to said this. A Chinese dragon has no wing, but it can fly, and it only flies (No one ever seen a walking Chinese dragon

) In my opinion, it is better than an European one. But it doesn't go that way with the phoenix.

Awesome. I'm undone by the kindness and talent shown by both of you (and Koasati). Thank you both very very much for these.
Yes, please submit, PhoenixHeart.

I know my stuff doesn't compare to you, and Po. (I claim a disadvantage though..... I honestly can't draw a stick with both hands on paper)

Patience Grasshopper....... a few of the first requests haven't been addressed yet. I'm looking at MediaMan, but wonder if you'd rather Po, or PH do it......

I'd really like a logo for The Core Media Player. The one it comes with doesnt resize gracefully. The only picture I could get of it was a screenshot from ObjectDock, but hopefully somebody can make a prettier one from it.

Also one for the SHOUTcast Server program would be nice

And for the MMORPG Risk Your Life. The Icon it has is Just Plain Ugly. I think that's supposed ot be the hilt of a sword behind the letter RYL, but who can tell? Maybe whoever takes this one would like to look at their website (http://ryl.com.my) for some better inspiration, if you like

(lol I keep editing this as i realize I want more... sorry.)
Another icon that would make me happy would be a replaement for the default Morpheus Downloads folder.

Also, if someone could remind me how to change the icon for something in the system tray tab of OD+, I'd really appreciate it. Seems like I saw in another thread somewhere that it's ctrl-RClick, but that just brings up the menu for whichever program...

Just click and hold the mouse for several seconds.

See #9.

It's Ctrl + Left click, or as PH points out, left click and hold.

PHOENIXHEART, your dragon is awesome! It really captures the Chinese art form/feel! It's great.

I touched up my dragon. You'll have to let me know if it's any better. (More 'dragonish'

) Do you want me to email it to you, or submit it? I watermarked it til you let me know.

Looks great, Po. E-mail will work unless you want to post it. My addy is in my profile, but I believe you already have it.
Thanks!! I owe you and PhoenixHeart one.
