Custom Window Icon

[Echoes 6]

Hi!

I have a question about the quality of the .ico file needed to diff actual clients using NEMO (4144's fork).

I have seen a lot of Clients with a decent custom icon quality, but when it comes to diff and add my own custom icon, I can't manage to get half of the quality those icons have... so, I wanted to ask: how can I improve the quality of the icon to use with NEMO, but keeping the requirements it has? Or I would have to diff it manually?

 

Thank you!

Well, for the icon itself, I convert a PNG image (200x200 pixels) to 8bpp 256 colors 32x32 pixels .ico file using GIMP2, but the output is some ugly pixelated photo.

Will search resouce hacker, thank you Dastgir for your response.

EDIT

When I try to launch the .exe with the icon modified it says Windows can't run the program :c
