Since NovaShell doesn't have an icon yet I thought I'd knock one up quickly so you can all use it with the desktop shortcut. Nothing special, but I'm sure you'd all appreciate it. I'll do a better one if there's enough demand for it.

Really? Rats. It *is* a Vista icon, ie. some of the icons sizes have PNG compression. Try this one: it's just the 32x32 version, uncompressed. Sorry about that!

If you need it in other sizes (48x48, for instance) then just ask.

Thanks! Will take a look. Need to get it packaged with an icon at some point.

Good, good! I'll get to work on a better icon at some point if you'd like; something high-res, as 32x32 icons look awful on my Vista desktop (big 48x48 icons. Oh yes).

I've still yet to quite work out how to make an icon that best fits with XP and Vista; Vista uses PNG compression to bring down the size of the larger icons. I use IconSushi to fiddle with it, but as a previous post is testament to, it seems it's a little more complex to mix the two.
