M Icon Editor

Certain applications don't come with any icons for their executables, which forces you to look for new ones. If you can't find the right icons for your applications, you can use M Icon Editor to create your own. It allows you to draw icons from scratch or edit existing ones, regardless of their resolution. You can zoom in and draw pixel by pixel, if you wish to make your icons look like they were drawn by a professional.

M Icon Editor is free to try for 10 days, after which you have to pay for a license. Its setup package is less than one MB, so you can install it in a matter of seconds. The application is lightweight, so it doesn't have any significant impact on a computer's performance. Also, it doesn't require any special tools or services.

In terms of appearance, M Icon Editor resembles a simplified version of a traditional image editor. You can start a new project and draw on a blank canvas or open existing icons and modify them. An icons browsing window makes it quite easy to import icons. After selecting a folder on your hard drive, its contained files will be displayed on the aforementioned window, on which you can preview icons, in different sizes.

If you import an icon, the application will display its other versions, in different sizes, on a small panel and you can click one to load it in the editing area. The available drawing and selection tools can be found on a small panel, which can be moved anywhere on the screen. Besides opening and saving icons, you can also save the currently used pallet and load it at a later date.
