Moved to Technology.
Dock icons or desktop icons? Any specific programs in particular? |

If you want to make your own, make it on a 256x256px canvas with transparent background, high dpi, and save it in png format.

You're welcome. Though, I may have made a mistake when telling you which format to use. Sorry! :( PNG's are great for dock icons but I'm not sure if they're best for desktop icons. I suggest saving it as an icon (.ico). Do you have the Photoshop plug-in? I searched online and apparently you have to buy it. =\

I like using KDE-Look, but they're .png. If you want to take the effort to convert them to .ico, it'll work.
