Dougiefresh Posted August 22, 2009 Share Posted August 22, 2009 (edited) I am interested in writing an application in order to create the icon themes that Drive Space Indicator uses for each drive. This script will create each icon from 2 images, one image would be the drive type (hard drive, floppy drive, removable, etc) and the other image would be the progress bar at the bottom of the icon. I do not want to use or manipulate an external icon creation program in order to build the icons, but I haven't been able to find AutoIt code in order to create the .ICO files. If necessary, I would consider calling an external program to convert it from one format to another as long as that command-line utility had no GUI when used at the command-line (like Reshacker). Can anyone help me or point me to threads that would help me? Any assistance would be appreciated! Thanks!
