BSPlayer must have new icons

[J44xm]

Please, get this program some decent icons! I'm really liking BSP, but these icons are -- no offense -- atrocious. I don't want to see these things all over my system! :shock:

[crimarti]

i agree.

[iron2000]

I support your request.

[Bro]

would be a good if each file type could have a icon of its own.
Like both avi and mpeg files played by default with bsplayer, and each type have the old icons (grey and "blue" video camera)...

[xlv600]

I agree too.
But, maybe BST is a better coder than designer.
I guess he can't use copyrighted materials, then why don't you make and post here your own icones so that he can include them???

Just as a suggestion: Go and ask Food to make icons for BsP...

If you don't know Food's Icons go to his site: http://www.foood.net/

I think he's still open for "custom orders" ... But they're not free...

He would be able to make some beautiful icons...

ha. i was just about to make a post about this. great program, horrible icons.

i have a different idea though. implement bsplayer to use a custom icon as specified by the user. for the player and file types. same way limewire works. it has a dir with the icons. you can just replace them to suit your needs.

very simple.

Everyone is invited to design new icon for BSPlayer.

[netnichols]

Please oh please.. somebody make some nice icons BSPlayer! But I also agree with metal_termite.. being able to drop some icons in a directory would be really nice.

Why is it that the best programs always have crappy (imho) icons? BSPlayer, WinRAR, Firebird / Thunderbird until recently.

[neato713]

TONS of free icons that are openly available for non-comercial use on www.iconfactory.com. Bsplayer is non comercial.

All right! Let's see what we can't do ...

[Mat2000]

Please create something nice.
You can be awarded with commercial version of Bsplayer.

I do, though, like metal_termite's idea, that BSPlayer could have an option to browse to and select whatever icon the user wants for associated file-types. I think only one icon for all types would be fine. (Side note: I like how files associated with BSP just say, for example, "AVI File" and not something vague like "BSPlayer multimedia file." Short, simple, sweet.) Still, I'll see if I can whip something up.

[J44xm]

Well, I've been a bit busy and sporadically ill and haven't been able to create a decent icon or two. Still, I think the best thing for the creators to do would be to allow users to browse for their own media icons. (The main application icon, while not attractive, can remain, I think. It's just media file, I believe, that should be customizeable.) Please think about adding this to BSPlayer!

[megamacy]

The best will be if i can set custom Icons for each filetype, so everybody can choose his fav. icons from his collection.

[J44xm]

I agree, that'd be great. But a simple choose-icon-for-media-files feature would work just fine for me.

:)

[eli2k]

Files for individual media types should be possible, shouldn't it? Just remove file associations and you can pick your own icon from all those icon sets scattered on customizing sites.

[J44xm]

It'd be easiest to just have an option in BSP to select any single icon that would represent ALL types.

Where oh WHERE can I find a decent BSPlayer user's manual??????????TANX!
