Just noticed another bug: right shift doesn't seem to do anything. Left shift works as expected. 10.5.2, swedish pro keymap, core duo macbook.

Although I do agree that the square form of those Icons make them a little bit less unique, I still think they are definitely good enough to be fully useablem and I certainly would not be disturbed by them.

Diskimagery64 has nice icons for C64 filetypes. (At least I think that's where the icons in my system for .d64 files and so on came from.) The .d64 icon is a 5.25" disk with a label saying "data" on it.

Perhaps the same icons could be used for the filetypes?

...and now I just remembered that the same person is behind those two projects.

Indeed :) The icons have to be redrawn for 512x512 anyway though.

I also found another bug: you can't drag & drop CRT files, it tries to load them as a PRG.

OK, the VICE application icons are done. You can grab them here:

The Photoshop images are included if anyone wants to improve them.

A few demo shots of the icons follow:

Here's the first mockup of the tape icon:

...and D64:

Edit: fixed shadow

OK, tape, cartridge, and 5.25" floppy icons added.

The icons are really awesome! If you agree I'll add them to "official" VICE (with proper artist reference) and of course to the next snapshot....

Now only a PRG Icon is missing (ok, i forgot vsf)... but this one is rather abstract...

BTW: The old DiskImagery64 icons were done in SVG and so they are available in any resolution

MagerValp · March 19, 2008, 08:20:21 PM

Yes, please use them as you see fit. I think they could use a little more work, in particular the media icons needs better text, and maybe a little color?

PRG, VSF, and D81 needs to be done. D81 is easy enough, but I don't know how to visualize PRG and VSF. As you say they are a little abstract...

a new snapshot is online: vice-1.22.9-r422_20080406

changes:
* updated to VICE 1.22.9
* readded FFMPEG support
* added MagerValp's icons

Looking good. The xplus4 and xvic icons need to be made a little bit darker, so that the screen glare is visible. Also, how do I get the new vice icons to become the default document icons for D64, etc? My system appears to be using icons from the official VICE 1.21.

I noticed that fullscreen mode is available, but the menubar and dock stays visible. It also doesn't keep the aspect ratio, but gets squashed on my macbook's widescreen display.
