well, I tried my best to make a happy icon, but I found a clip that was too cool not to turn into an icon, so here it is… the suicidal penguin!

Hah!
I once spent a summer dressed up as McGruff the crime-fighting dog, so I know how the Penguin feels.
I’d past the url, but I don’t know how to make it all clicky, so here’s a cut & paste: http://www.mcgruff.org/
What do you use to make your snazzy icons?
what do I use to make my icons? a lot of things.
The main application I use is Adobe ImageReady (which comes packaged with PhotoShop). That’s what I use for the final animation and color compression. Before that, I use a number of different tools to grap the images from the original sources, clean them up, add effects, etc.
Short answer? I use whatever it takes.
and I remember McGruff.
I was 13 and sweating to death inside a giant dog head. Ah, the joy of youth.
Anyway… I’ve got ImageReady (came with P’Shop, yep, yep) and just never fiddled with it… might have to now. 🙂
