I used this method for the recently updated version of my «Games»-folder icons, but packed it now into a nice shell-script to use in the macOS Terminal.app.
Use the «Icon Maker» script to create a new icon
- Download this script as “
icon_maker.sh
” to your Mac
- Open the
Terminal.app
- Important: make the script executable using:
chmod +x "/path/to/icon_maker.sh"
- Run the script with passing a path to an image-file as parameter. For example:
./icon_maker.sh "/path/to/cool/image.png"
