>>The one thing that I like about ImagEdit (as opposed to ImageEdit32 or the VC++ editor) is its ability to shrink an icon from 32x32 to 16x16. The downside is the limitation of in terms of number of colors. < mumbles to self about finishing Icon shrinker project >

>I hear ya and agree. It's probably one of those things that Calvin or someone wrote in their "spare time" etc. so it's not a full up application with lot's of functionality, etc. There seems to be a fair amount of MS stuff like this.

I think it began life as a 16 bit app (or earlier), and I think was just recompiled under Win32. Copyright info indicates "1981-1996".

The thing is that there's just one thing stopping me from completing it. I know how (and have created and separated) files with multiple icons. I know the API call to shrink it. Just can't figure out how to create one of the necessary structures in a smaller size. Of course, I haven't really tested the shrink process yet, so that structure may come along with it.
