MacOS Installer Icon

Unread post by slendertechofficial » 2023-07-15, 22:38

So, this is kind of unrelated to Pale Moon itself, but I see that the disk.icns file in PM source code is a custom version of a certain kind of MacOS disk icon. How do people make custom versions of the stock silver version? I've seen many other ones just like the Pale Moon one, except different colors and logos (obviously).

Thank you to anyone who quenches my indulgence for information pertaining to custom disk icon creation. :thumbup:

Quite simple: by using a paint program and being creative -- and then converting the resulting image to an icon file.

I know, but where can I find the base disk icon used?

On the internet? Do a search :)

Couldn't find that exact disk icon, so I had to use a different one. But thanks for trying to help anyway!
