Hello, I have found some third party plugins to save .icon extension in photoshop.

Doesn't Adobe have a solution? Else, where do I find the most proven and reliable .ico plugin.

We are using CS4, both on Windows XP 32bit and Windows 7 64bit computers.

Edit: Is this recommended http://www.telegraphics.com.au/sw/

    Not sure about CS4, but CS5 provides a .ico save option.

    I don't believe it does, J-MS.  You must have installed a 3rd party plug-in to get that.

    It's right, CS4 does not support .ico. But I tried the photoshop plugin http://www.telegraphics.com.au/svn/icoformat/trunk/dist/README.html, and it works fine.

    The read me file says that this plugin supports "multiple icons". Does anyone know how to create a single .ico-file containing several icons/resolution/sizes?

    Please post a tutorial or similar, if you have seen one.

    Thanks for all
