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


Great work again Lucas. Definitely some useful images for those in need. No shame in having "too much spare time" as your efforts will be sure to reward those time poor individuals that can use all the assistance available to make their daily routines identified easier :)

They are not my greatest and I could have spent more time on them but they may suit someone with vital info they need to keep from prying eyes. 🙈👍🏼

Just another collection of customized folders I created...too much time on my hands it would seem. 😊

Canvas collection, Plain & Glossy version. 👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👍🏼

Dude! The psychedelic ones are neat, but the waves in the 2 quotation above are awesome - I really, really like those!

And then I get to the next page and see the canvas. D'oh!

I'm not happy with this icon below - can someone create a better one preferably that is both Light and Dark mode compatible - if not I can switch between two based on the Light/Dark mode at runtime.

The icons scale to 16x16 - 'More' not to be confused with 'Upgrades' which has similar functionality.

'More' represents a search for additional Windows installations and returns the product information.

TIA :wink:

I really don't like the Programs icon in C panel 1629808485849.png It looks too plain.

The old was better 1629808692804.png but does need a new face.

Thanx Lucas looks good :)

I will give it a go but I don't think Dark mode will look so good - that's why the other icons are based on ROYGIV as opposed to blue.

Edit: I don't want to be presumptuous but how about using the settings' thingy's Light/Dark as a base
Capture2.PNGCapture1.PNG

with a magnifying glass offset? That would be golden. Love your work BTW.

I hope you are still taking requests...
may I please have a Bluetooth folder icon? Just a blue folder with the Bluetooth icon?

The icons shared thus far have really made my system look awesome:star:😍.

So am I right in assuming there isn't one universal one I can make for you to save you having to change them ?
or does the system accommodate for both ?

I've added the 'white' one above in the same post as the dark one, hope they are what you wanted buddy, any issues just contact me. 👍🏼
I didn't make it 'stark white' I toned it down slightly.
Awesome thanx :wink:

Perhaps add a splash of colour so that it ties in with the other icons?

I'm not sure if it's possible to do one that caters for both Light and Dark modes but if you can that would would be first prize.

Check Mark left or right ?
I placed it left as it seemed the logical choice.

So did you prefer the icon with magnifying glass or using it elsewhere ?
View attachment 6267
I prefer on the right. I prefer the icon with magnifying glass because the testers preferred it.

So 'Tick' on the right behind the MGlass or in front of it ?
Behind is the great option. If we put it in front, it will make the icon weird.

I have the option of moving the MGlass a little further to the left if you'd like ?
Great!

Edit: Save button on WEF not working for me.

Ok I've added a 'Neutral' color to the panel which appears to work with both dark & light themes and I also doubled the size of the 'text lines',
not that it matters I suppose because the icon will be that small you won't even see it. 😊
Also did an orange and green variation, test them for me and let me know if any of them work for you please.

Cool, thanx!

Yeah unfortunately one loses the detail when reducing the size - here's what it looks like in each.

Yeah I figured as much, as soon as they get to that size then they are pretty useless in most icons I'm afraid.
Can you get your hands on the original icon and send it to me please ?
I'd like to take a closer look at it.

Just shoot whatever you think. As you can see, I love High res Icons. Just look at what I'm using it will give you a good idea.

I'm sure you have some great ideas!

As you can see here, these are my most used ones.
