Rare icon request

from WinCustomize Forums
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!

Well, Phoenixheart (or anybody else), if you're looking for the work....
How about a couple icons/dock icons for runners (as in marathons). I've always been amazed by the work all the artists are able to create!!

I use Motionbased to download GPS info online for runs.

My GPS watch is from Garmin
http://www.garmin.com/products/forerunner205/

And I could use another icon or two for other records/files I keep. The following links are the kind of thing I've modded for my own use up to now. I'm working on my creative skills to come up with a better avatar (but that will be a while!)

Sorry for only links to images...couldn't get my screenshots into the forum reply. Thank you in advance for anything you are able to come up with!

Sorry to be such a nuisance, but how about one for the Photoshop CS3 beta? their new icons are pretty nifty, IMO, but no such luck of OD.


you guys rock.

Go get 'em Phoenixheart...I'm officially on Christmas vacation until Jan. 2 and can't make icons...

Alright, I've got one more for 'ya. There's this program called OurTunes designed to share music across a network, but its a executable jar file and has no icon from the company. would you be able to create something similar to the iTunes icon and merging it with something network related (like a globe or something of the like)? If you could, that would be superb.


as usual, cheers.

Ok, bandit, here's the preview of Adobe Captivate you've requested:



Btw, the CHM to PDF icon is great!

arcturus13, I'm not sure I understand your request... You want an icon of a runner???
Reply #1117 from WinCustomize Forums Top
Oops, sorry... ANY MORE. ANY MORE. ANY MORE! (I must repeat it over and over so that I can remember )
Reply #1118 from WinCustomize Forums Top
The captivate icon is SUPERB! Phoenixheart, you are awesome!

and as to your question about watching the thread, I'm afraid the only method I've had work for me is to continually check the thread over and over again to see if there are any new posts...I have never recieved any update messages although I have it set to do so.

Hey Bandit, this one's great; exactly what I had in mind. Thanks for all your help, I've been trying to teach myself some of this stuff, but I'm not quite up to par with it all yet.

thanks a bunch!

How do you even install some of these icons and take screen shots of the ones you have currently.. Sorry I am new
Reply #1123 from WinCustomize Forums Top
The icons, brad, are designed for use with Stardock's Objectdock program or with other "Dock" type launchers...find object dock here WWW Link">Link

Screenshots are made easy by a free little program called FastStone Capture found here
WWW Link

Or you can screenshot the old fashioned way by hitting the PRTSCRN button and pasting into your image program and saving as a .jpg.

Welcome aboard! glad to have you here!

I've been trying to make a nice icon for TreeDBNotes Pro, but haven't really been successful. Here is the icon that comes with it:


I've also not been able to find an icon for KeepSafe, which is strange given Stardock's relationship to this site.

Thanks so much for your effort, guys.

Yes Phoenixheart, I was hoping for an icon of a runner. I have a few files (excel, word) in which I keep info and logs about running, so I was hoping you might have a creative and cool idea of a running figure. I made my avatar (and other variations of it) in Paint.net, and I am trying out GIMP, but I was hoping to see what someone else might come up with. The other links I gave were other running figure style icons that I have seen, and even changed a bit for my own use, and thought might give an idea of the sort of thing I was thinking of.

I could also use icons for the two other companies/websites - Garmin and MotionBased.

I'm not having any luck putting images into the replies, sorry for leaving everything as links.
