Exeat calm down hes asking a question.

Freak, you simply open up a 2D program (Photoshop, Paint Shop) and you make your icon, then save it as .ico (I think) and load it into DB Pro.

I don't get it.

To answer RPG_Freak's question, all you need is a bitmap editor like MS Paint. Just make a 32x32 image, then save as *.ico (eg. "icon.ico"). As far as I know, an icon is just a bitmap with .ico instead of .bmp

I think Exeat said that because RPG_Freak has made a double post/topic.

I said it because I was watching the forums when his post appeared in Dark Basic Professional, then it appeared in Dark Basic, then it appeared in Newcomers... so I told him to stop posting it in every forum which I think is reasonable enough.
