I've noticed that a lot of the games here have that default red ball icon. Well, I'm going to fix that.

Introducing Artex (http://64digits.com/games/index.php?cmd=view_game&id=366). It's a fantastic, powerful, and free icon creator, made in Game Maker. It even supports the image clipboard!

NOTE: I did not make this, and am in no way affliated with those who did.

Now there is no excuse for the red ball.

Happy devving!

thx Evil_toaster, IcoFX is a lot easier not too mention the better functions.

This thread made me think that maybe we should have a sticky thread for resources like this. I would make the newer guys life a lot easier not having too download a lot of stupid apps before they find the real stuff?

thats what google is for, as well as the search function.
tho im not against a resource sticky, it usually just gets cluttered.

Ok but what if you only have certain categories too which the sticky applies. and then only the best tool or resource gets posted in each category, if a better one is found the old one is taken down. I know this will take a lot of management but after the first rush is over it will be easier. That plus the fact that it would save us a lot of time googleling.
