icons for HEIC, AVIF and JXL

Post by golemus »

it would be nice to have icons for these important file formats. Similar style as ones for PNG and PNG (with HEIC, AVIF, JXL texts inside icons). Not sure about best colors for each of them.

But I did temporary icons for these while waiting for official ones where HEIC is purplish red, AVIF is bright GREEN and JXL is bright BLUE.

If you would like to have them below is a download link. They are not very good, a bit of pixel noise and done with my not so good GIMP skills but at least now it is easier to visually a bit easier to separate these formats from others.

If you want to use them go to XNview MP folder under program files and there to FileIcons folder. Rename current variations to .bak (e.g. avif.ico.bak) and then copy these there. Set your default program for avif to something else than xnmp, then set it back to xnmp. Repeat this for heic and jxl and maybe restart computer and then they should work.

This for windows, not sure how it is done in macos or linux
