How can I get custom images/icons to be displayed in my folder's icons? I'm talking about icons with a transparent background.
Like on these folders:
When I try to change the folder image manually, transparency always gets lost replaced by white color which looks really ugly:
Can this even be done? Or is there maybe a Photoshop script to generate an icon like this?
There is no easy answer for this. For all practical purposes, you must create a completely new icon. Here is an icon you can use: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B2GzI8cZDN1PcVdTakRLLU9DWm8/view?usp=sharing It can also be used as a starting point for more of the same. It isn't perfect but it doesn't look too bad. All of the source is included in case you want to make it better. I used, PhotoShop, InkScape and IcoFX to make it.
