Icon Developer Problem

from WinCustomize Forums
For some reason, my icons will not save in the size I am trying to save them in. I am trying to save them in 128x128 XP size but they are saving at 32x32. I don't believe I'm doing anything differently than I have done before.

I open ID and choose convert image to icon. I open a png file and select the 128x128 XP format. Click Ok. Then try to save it, but it doesn't work.

Anyone have any ideas?

HOLY MOLY! It works, Paul! I really don't know when or how Irfanview became the default image handler for ico files, but at least the transfer back to ID is working! I'm still leaving the archived ID on my comp for a while, at least until I get this package completed. Plus I'd like to see how the next build is, well... built! THANK YOU!

I hope others like Bichur and Webgismos are able to get ID working to their specifications as well. Good luck guys!

When I double click on an icon in ID it opens with Paint.net...is this correct? I tried doing the re-association (Tools > Preferences > File Types > select ".ico" > click "Apply") but it still opens with Paint.net. When I tried to method suggested it already had .ico set for the file type. Any other way to correct this? Or is this not a problem?

If you want to use a different editor automatically on double click then in ID, tools, preferences, image editors - add the one you want - then move it up to the top of the list.

Click the add button and browse for the .exe of graphics software, then move it to top.
