How to create icons? - Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I'm really digging the icons created by le3ky, ie a smoothstar icon pack but I'd like to be able to create my own to have matching font throughout my phone. Can anyone point me in the direction of a program to get me started?

[Q] how to make custom text icons

I keep looking online and I just can't find the answer I need, I want to make some text icons with the Comfortaa font to make the rest of my phone, but when I make them they always have their white background and I feel like I've tried everything (notepad, word, CS5, paint.net) and no success. Could someone please explain. Thanks in advance!!!
When you start a new project in cs5, you can make the background transparent.
You could also just grab a template and edit to your liking.
Appreciate your help as always!!!!
EDIT: I chose transparent but the background still came up when I added then to my homescreen

[Q] PNG names of drawer icons

Hi,
this is my first post, after a lot of time I'm reading you. I'd like to know if someone can tell me the names of the .png files of drawer icons, because I want to mod a theme where not all the icons change.
For example, for the browes icon, I know that the png file is called "com.android.browser.browseractivity"; for the copilot icon the name is "com.alk.copilot.copilot".
But for a lot of icons I don't know the name. Can someone help me, please?
ps. My defy is not rooted
thank you

hi
nice WP
i would suggest you just copy it to your device and set it with an app like
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=jp.juggler.CropWallpaper
or
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...lvcm9tby5hdXRvbWF0aWNzZXR0aW5nd2FsbHBhcGVyIl0.
good luck !
Thanks
it worked, love the wallpaper!
Now I just need to find a transparent icon. The one I have is not completely transparent because I can see them.
transparent icon for what app ?
something like this?
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.jy.iconchanger.ad
To put icons on top of the wallpaper
Took a screenshot, you can clearly see that the transparent icon I have isn't really transparent.

i guess your'e talking about the dock icons.
first you need to create a transparent icon, i would suggest photoshop but the most important thing is to save the file as PNG oppose to GIF\JPG.
other thing is to make sure you have a launcher which supports it.

[Q] Add Icon to Icon Pack

Okay, so I'm trying to customize an Icon Pack, by adding some Icons for some apps that it doesn't have.
I want to know how exactly can I do this?
I'm using Go launcher, and I saw in another thread a thingy about Go Launcher Theme factory...The problem is, I'm not trying to create a theme, I just want to add the Icons I've made for certain apps to the existing Icon Pack (I'm not planning on uploading it or anything).
Thanks for any help.
