Assigned project: 32Bit icon editor

The 32Bit icon editor project has been assigned to Robert Szacki.

The project is about creating a 32 bit capable icon editor that Hyperion can ship with the OS in place of the old non 32 bit capable icon editor.

Also if you want to contribute to this project you can send a donation to AmigaBounty once they get their paypal problems sorted.

Read more about the project here on openamiga.org:

For donations on AmigaBounty go here:

That really nice. Many of us want it. I will support by donation when paypal problems will be fixed.

@orgin

Nice project.
And nice to help with updating parts of the AmigaOs.

Is there a time limit for this one?

good news :)

Good, I'm going to donate when the paypal issue is resolved

Good luck !

Thanks Robert!

As others have mentioned, get PayPal sorted and I can make a donation as well.

@thread

This is great news !

Maybe projects like this can be breaked into differing levels of complexity.

A paint Framework for level 1, for example the framework could be reused in other projects.

A more complex example could be an Icon Framework that can add icon formats and even vector data.

Why reinvent the wheel ?

Anyway, here are some links that may help with icon information :

Hope to donate soon on an important project like this.

@all

I will publish a news item about the bounty as a reminder when Paypal issues are solved.

There is no limit to the bounty and work has already begun.

@orgin

You'll not forget write here when the problems with the paypal are solved. And we can make donations.

@orgin

But is there any source of the orginal IconEdit ?
I ask because this seems a completely new program

@samo79

It's a completely new program.

@orgin

Looks nice!

@trixie

Yes, altrough I prefer the IconEdit look, but I know it's too early ...

This is a very nice project.

I've toyed around with Amiga icons myself in the past. I could contribute some code to convert those nasty dual-PNG icons to normal if Robert needs it.

Robert, you rulz :) Screenshot looks very nasty. It looks like almost finished project already.
