QBPE icon - zaadstra - 12-20-2025

Since long time I've decorated my programs with the QB64 logo. Without this, it is a simple Terminal icon,

Using the line:
Code: (Select All)
$EXEICON:'D:\Bas\_icons\qb64.ico'
After some years with PE, I still think the Phoenix doesn't look great in such a very small pic.
So I created a QBPE icon!  Here it is, see if you like it!

Too bad the image uploaded changes the .ico into a jpg ... How can I add tte icon?

It's easy to change it back really.  Just convert to BMP first then rename to .ico  (that's all an ico is)

Zip the .ico file and attach the zip file to the post. Folks can download it, unzip it, and use it.

So like this, a BMP:

rename back to ico ... less quality loss than via JPG...

Oh no, it's a JPG again!
It is 9 KB, the original ICO is 100 KB ...

@Zaadstra Compress it to ZIP and then upload it here  Cool

@zaadstra

First, send the message without the attachment. Then click EDIT / FULL EDIT, and you’ll be able to add a ZIP file (at the bottom of the page).

Here is the .ico in a zip file!

Thanks @Petr for the heads-up how to do this.  Cool
