I love music and with this new feature in desktop, I can still continue mu love of music by customizing my desktop with this music icon pack. Wow! this is a great pack, I can even choose what color and icon I will put in my desktop. How cool is that
They look awesome. Only problem is, when I try to change the icon with one of these pictures, it says the “file contains no icon”
This is using one of the .png files
@Kerl – To use .png files as icons on Windows systems they will need to be converted first. You can use the following resources to do so:
