I use Quickmenu III in DOSbox as a nice launcher for my games. Now this is not DOSbox specific, but I am trying to find good 16 color Windows icons for my games. I've tried searching for that on Google, but you mosly find hi-color XP icons these days. Quickmenu does import Windows icons, but only the 16 color variety. For the moment, I have resorted to just trying to make my own by scaling down images and converting them to 16 color. But, this is taking more time than I want to spend. Just curious to see if anyone has seen a good archive of icons out there.

Bah, never mind. I've just been making my own icons. Not too hard actually, I usually just edit a screenshot in Gimp, cut out the main character or a game logo and scale that down to 32x32 16 colors. Then clean it up pixel by pixel.

If anyone needs some icons, I'll probably put them up on my website soon.
