In the upper well, you drop an image or existing icon file (.icns) and
in the middle well you drop another, and using a number of preset
compositions, you can have the "symbol" be positioned on the "base"
and then exported (dragged) to the desktop as a PNG file, a .icns file
or a TIFF file.
sounds simple enough, depending on what the 'preset compositions'
consists of. i'll check it out later. thanks for the heads up. ;D
yo sandman, i finally got some time to look at CCI and a bit of time
to play w/ xcode. knocked out a couple code chunks to test some
things out, and replicating something like CCI seems like it should be
cake. i'll let you know when i get some free time to codes something
up. :D
Wow! That would be AWESOME! State your price and I'll happily pay for
your effort, of course. Preferably through paypal or something like
that.
I would even be interested in the source code, since I've been wanting
to learn "real" programming for years. Do you own any Cocoa reference
books you'd like to recommend?
i'll probably toss it up on sourceforge or something when i get
something that resembles a distributable program.
i didn't bother getting a reference book- apple's tutorials, sample
programs, and reference material are pretty good, and i do a good
chunk of coding in other languages, so it wasn't a huge deal for me as
far as language semantics go- just had to get familiar with a couple
api's. it seems that "Cocoa Programming for Mac OS X" seems highly
recommended (third edition coming out in a month, so hold off if you
want to pick up a copy), but i think it assumes some familiarity w/ c
or c++.
if you do start playing around with cocoa, i recommend the cocoa-dev
mailing list; the web site on the other hand, i wouldn't bother too
much with.
Ok, thanks for the recommendations. Let me know when you have
something working. I'm very excited about this.
