I made an icon #14

The program uses an icon from shell32.dll for the context menu, which is fine. For the Chocolatey Community Repository, I made a free alternative icon, inspired by Microsoft's icon. Feel free to copy it to your repo. Perhaps you can use it as a favicon for the GitHub pages.

As of writing, my package has not been accepted. There is a very long queue.

I don't think it's explicitly disallowed to use not-technically-official-icons for community packages, but, I think it's reasonable. If you or the choco admins, however, disapprove, then I will remove the icon from the package.

It's silly that a program named PNG to ICO doesn't have its own icon!

Icon: https://github.com/virginviolet/chocolatey-packages/tree/main/manual/png-to-ico.install/icon Chocolatey package: https://community.chocolatey.org/packages/png-to-ico.install

Thanks for the Chocolatey package. Don't hesitate to submit it as a pull request in this repository. đź‘Ť This way, we could also have WinGet in the future, for instance.

About the icon, the one you submitted looks like a “backup” or “synchronization” software. Maybe something a little bit different ?

I just wanted to make a free alternative to the icon that is used for the context menu. You think I should make something original? Hmm... I probably won't, but I'll think about it.
