Publisher's Description
From Narattaphol Charoenphandhu:
Folder Icon X is an application providing a simple way to create a customized folder and document icons by placing another icon on a standard plain icon. It fully supports "drag 'n drop", live icon resize, and can load any icons from any files or folders. All generated icons are 32-bit Mac OS X-compatible icons which can be viewed on both Classic Mac OS and Mac OS X.
What's new in this version:
- Allow to change transparency of the logo icon.
- Allow to use "Delete" key to delete the selected logo icon.
- Add offset and size editable box. To make changes of editable values, users must press "Return" or "Enter" key. See manual for details.
- Improve quality of saved icons. Transparent icons will not show the grayish tone.

"Does its job well!"
Version: Folder Icon X 3.0
Summary
This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.
I'm really picky about icon creation and after a lot of searching on VT I've come back to Folder Icon X (was using a freeware CM not supported on intel). Not only has Folder Icon X improved, its also Universal Binary; I'm grateful to the Dev for maintaining the app and would recommend it to anyone needing a fine tune app for custom folder icons. -

"Continued Support Appreciated"
Version: Folder Icon X 2.0.6
Summary
This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.
It seems like forever that I've been downloading improvements, tweaks, and bug fixes for thiis little app. It contrinues to do its specialized job very well. And I can't think of a better supported app since the introduction of OSX 10.0. The functionality of the contextual menu items are one of the special bonuses. -

In spite of the updates for things like "moved a button 8 pixels to the right" this thing works like a charm. On the other hand, VIOU should be avoided like the plague. It will start replacing folder icons all over your drive with icons you never selected. Very bad code and a crappy interface to boot. Stick with Folder Icon X. -
"Wrong Attitude"
Version: Folder Icon X 2.0.1
Summary
This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.
Stormchild's comments are incorrect in my view. This developer is very active in supporting the various products available. He continually tweaks them but no one is standing around twisting anyone's arm to download them.
That said I'd like to see him update the Photoshop plug-in to Photoshop CS. I believe he stopped development due to lack of interest circa Photoshop 6 (Classic). If updated to CS it would be an inexpensive option (I've long since registered it) to other plug-ins/filters which use Photoshop. Given his ingenuity and continued support for this app, Launch Items X and others I'd like to see him pick that one up again.
This is a great little app which does precisely what it says it will do, has a lot of functionality, a good UI, and is indispensible for its specific purpose IMHO. I think I've registered every product this vendor has provided to the OSX (and previously) and OS9 communities. Thank you.
My only fear is that he has too many irons in the fire and works continually on improving all products over the span of years. Wish we had more like him. :) -
"Works"
Version: Folder Icon X 1.9.1
Summary

The updates noted by developer seem to work fine. While I'd agree with Foto555 (and also Courtney) in general, I've given it a high rating several times in the past. That doesn't mean I don't like to see other users requesting new features. This vendor is forever updating this and his other apps. I've used his software for at least 4 years.
Want other featuresw? I have Icconizer Pro X, his product, (also Launch Item X, although I prefer DragThing and Fruit Menu), Photoshop, IconBuilder Pro (PS plug-in for 50 or 60 bucks from Icon Factory), GraphicConverter, Icongrapher (decent, but his comparable product is a better buy in terms of value), and other icon tools I don't recall offhand. I'm not a serious icon creator. Am strictly a hobbyist. I have a fair amount of money invested in Iconinzer Pro X, IconBuilder Pro, Iconographer, et al, but this one I use more than others combined.
For a "windoze" developer he spends a good deal of time on Mac products. ;) I get more custom alert update notices from VT on his updates than any other vendor on my list of 100+ on VT. Have never seen this vendor write anything but good, solid and well supported products. It obviously would not have the large number of comments on VT if it weren't.
No, am not his mother. ;) -

While Folder Icon does its job well enough, it could use more features to bring it up to date. How about adding features to allow the creation of text (i.e., FolderBrander), or a drop shadow. -

"Great Little App!!"
Version: Folder Icon X 1.8.8
Summary
This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.
I agree with Ryan Becker's comment about FinderIconCM, but it's really not a fair comparison. FinderIconCM is a contextual menu addition, and it's mighty useful -- in fact, it's really in a class by itself. I use it every day.
But Folder Icon X is in a different league. It has way more functionality as an icon design app than FinderIconCM, which really doesn't make any claim to the same turf. If you're serious about your iconic eye candy (and I am!), Folder Icon X is one great little tool that you probably will want in your toolbox. Narat's support is first-class, and he's very conscientious about updating his software.
