The SGIRGB format plug-in allows you to read and write files in the SGI image format. This format is commonly used by software on the Silicon Graphics platform. The SGI image format plug-in recognizes the file extensions .sgi, .rgb, .rgba, and .bw.
After rediscovering this, I think I remember that when you manually created a shortcut in Program Manager, the icons embedded in progman.exe were provided as default choices, or you could click a Browse button to open another .ico or .dll file like moricons.dll. But it's been so long ago, I don't have a copy to play with to confirm, and haven't been able to find information about it online.
With 15 ready-to-use Photoshop templates, create your icons like a professional icon designer. Use the powerful drawing tools of Photoshop to create the different formats and export the whole artwork in IconWorkshop. The icon is automatically created in seconds with all its formats. You can even create your own templates.
Draw your icon in in Photoshop using the Template. For each image format you have a specific drawing zone. Once transferred in IconWorkshop, the icon is automatically created with pixel-perfect quality.
An exclusive feature permits creating an icon with its several image formats in just one operation! All is done automatically: Alpha channel is preserved, palettes are calculated for 256 color formats and even 16 color formats with transparency are generated:
Another great feature is the ability to use ready-to-use Photoshop templates. They permit creating icons in different formats using the professional tools of Photoshop, then export the whole icon in one step into IconWorkshop. You can even create your own templates.
Like most people above I thought it wasn't working either, but it turned out my image size was too big, you have to resize to 32px x 32px or less before you can save as an .ico format.. I personally put the plugin here :- C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS5.1 (64 Bit)\Plug-ins\File Formats.
Images that are used as icons in the Windows operating system must be saved in ICO format. By default, Adobe's Photoshop image-editing program does not support ICO format, making it impossible to make an ICO file in Photoshop on a Mac computer with the default configuration. Using a file format plugin, however, Photoshop users can create ICO files on a Mac.
For the plugin to function properly it must be installed to correct folder. Double-click the plugin's DMG file to mount the image and drag the plugin file onto the computer's desktop. Click the "Finder" icon in the computer's dock, followed by the "Applications" folder icon. Click the "Adobe Photoshop" folder, followed by the "Plug-ins" folder. Drag the plugin file into the "File Formats" folder inside the "Plug-ins" folder.
With the plugin installed, you are ready to create an ICO file. Click the "Finder" icon in the computer's dock, followed by the "Applications" folder. Double-click the "Adobe Photoshop" application icon to launch the application. Open or create the image that you want to save in ICO format, click the "File" menu and select the "Save" option. Click the arrow to the right of the "File Format" heading and select the "ICO (Windows Icon)" option. Click the "Save" button to create the file.
If you are having trouble using the plugin, you must first check that it is properly installed. Click the "Photoshop" menu and move your mouse cursor over the "About Plug-In" option. If "ICO (Windows Icon)..." is listed in the side menu that appears, the plugin is installed properly. If it is not listed, quit Photoshop and repeat the installation procedure. Also, you cannot save an image that is larger than 256-pixels tall or wide in ICO format. If the image is larger than this specified width or height, the ICO format will not appear in the "File Format" drop-down menu.
