>>Nice tool. Do you have any plan to add support to 256 color icons. Now that VFP 8 supports it, that's what made me go to think about the icons again.

Currently, on all platforms up to W2K, there's a bug in the underlying API call (that the SAVEPICTURE() function calls) which causes the insertion of 128 bytes in the file. (Note to all: This is most decidedly
not a VFP bug, but in the underlying API function.) Whether or not the same behavior exists with 256 color icons when shrunk or if it happens under WinXP, I have to find out.

I'll see if I can discover anything base on that info and in that case, I'll tell you.
Thanks a lot,
