You're welcome.

How did I do it? magic  ;)

No, seriously...


* I opened the image you supplied in Paintshop Pro

* replaced the white background with neon pink

* cropped it as small as I could

* resized to 99 pixels in height

* reduced colors to 256

* saved as a .bmp

* imported it into Microangelo at custom size of 99x99

* replaced neon pink with transparent

* added a few more sizes

* saved as .ico
All very simple & fast to do. The image didn't have complicated edges.

mouser:
even though i managed to circumvent this problem by adding an autorun.inf and an appropriate icon onto the respective memory stick with the resulting image as on Fig.2.

is there a place where people can learn about this trick?

lanux128:
app, you're the magic.. thanks for helping out.. :) p.s. i just got myself a microSD card *hint* *hint*

mouser, i took a normal autorun.inf and modified a bit.. anyway, here is it..
[autorun]
open=dud.exe
icon=Icons\apacer_sd_card.ico

btw, dud.exe is not necessary but i prefer to have it.. you can get dud.exe here

Dud is a program that does absolutely nothing. Run it and it will immediately unload. It can be used as a replacement for annoying system files, such as helpctr.exe or stobject.dll. Simply replace the file with dud.exe, and you'll never see the offending app again.
