Custom Icons for Windows 11 Thread (Folders, Dropbox, Google Drive, Podcasts, NVME Drive, Steam, Adobe)

Will these same Icons appear in The System Tray?

Yes they will!

Top man! Cheers

You're welcome.

I really appreciate those NVMe icons. I kept having trouble remembering which of my non-system drives was my other NVMe drive. Now I won't have that issue. Thanks!

 

[johnlgalt]

Yes, if I have time I will brainstorm an effective Beta / Alpha / Dev template. It will require more of a setup than the others, so please give me time. :)

Hey, man, no worries!

And a link to your patreon would be nice, I'd like to contribute for your efforts on my behalf, too. I don't see it in your signature....

Ooohh, those are nice, would be great to have some for my Sabrent NVMe drives plus my SanDisk Ultra II SSD and the Pair of Seagate mechanical Drives I have set up as RAID 1. But let me think about those first. I don't need them, for any real reason but for aesthetics. The Beat / Alpha / Dev I definitely need for a lot of things, including my own personal projects.

OK, back for a request. I'm a bit jealous seeing the Macrium folder. Can we get an Acronis folder PLZ?

You can see how it's similar to my current one below.

Looks awesome!! Love seeing you make use of both.

That's very kind of you! I've added my Patreon to my signature. I hadn't before because I didn't know whether or not that was allowed in the rules.

 

[Zardoc]

That is very, very, NICE!! Thanks

I never considered FLAC versus MP3 folders, but I do keep my music segregated exactly like that. Thanks!

Nothing unique about my design I'm afraid, I'm sure David is more imaginative when it comes to icons.

Somebody may find a use for one or two of these, Just some ideas I had for folders that I am currently using.

Yooo these look great! Nice work Lucas! How do you handle them in the smaller sizes?

It may sound dumb, but could you make an eggdog folder?

Sorry, what? Haha.

LOL

So this is obviously a PNG and not an ICO file, but something like this?

 

[Zardoc]

Nice egg

Love it David, I wish I had a use for it.
I had to save it though, it's just too cute not to have in my folders list.

Well since y'all see to love it so much, I made a full-blown .ICO of it that scales down.

 

[davidvkimball]

Hmmm.

I could throw about 120 different ones at you, but.....

Here is an easy one.

I run lots of programs in portable mode, from a Programs folder in a separate physical drive. In there, I have both stable versions and some βeta versions as well.

Any chance you could make a folder with the word βeta inscribed on it, with a light orange color, to easily distinguish the βeta apps for me?

I figure that would be easier than doing folder icons for all of these:

Maybe even an ɑlpha folder, red, with ɑlpha on it. And a purple Dev folder.

Heck, even the colors are not absolute, you're the designer here, just as long as they are different from each other and the regular folder color, that would be great!

One more question on this one, does it need to be visible at all sizes, or just the sizes larger than 64x64 pixels like some of the other Windows 11 User folders?

Converted svg linux faenza icons to windows ico format. For a dark theme.
