Hi,
If you don't have Photoshop what tool can you use to create a
thumbnail with proper alpha channelling? We have been trying a
number of packages (on Windows) that we have here and we cannot seem
to get it right. Sometimes, when we finally import the TIF into
IconComposer we see that the alpha lloks good, but the shadowed part
of our icon are all messed up in the thumbnail. We tried a number of
different packages and techniques and either seem to lose the alpha
of have a good alpha with a crap shadow.
Look around at VersionTracker.com, I recall seeing several tools for
making OS X icons posted there. As for Wintel tools...
