Adding An Icon |
To change the game icon, move a picture file or a Mac OS X icon file into the Game Icon image well. (For more information on using image wells, see Common Production Tasks.) If a picture file is used, the picture should be 128 by 128 pixels in size. If a Mac OS X icon file is used, its name should end with the extension .icns. It is recommended that Mac OS X icon files be used instead of picture files, because icon files support masks. Masks allows icons to be non-square and/or semitransparent. Mac OS X icon files with masks can be created using icon editing applications. For a list of recommended icon editing applications, see the Content Creation Applications section. |
