Usage

It's simple and easy to use. Once installed, you can generate a folder icon by right-clicking on a folder, an image, or the folder background. You can choose the template you want to generate the folder icon, it will automatically edit the image using ImageMagick.

Here's some samples of the template i've made.

  Files inside folder  

  Generated folder icon  

(none)	DVDCase Transparent	DVDCase Bluray	Folder Vertical	Folder Horizontal
(Shadow Only)	BeOrigin	Windows 11 A	Windows 11 Cover	Windows 11 Folderify
DiscArt	DVDBox Dark	DVDBox Light

>_The samples above use '**\*Poster\*.jpg**' as the generated folder icon. Certain templates with specific configurations may combine additional files located within the folder directory to achieve the results as shown above. If the required additional files are not available, they will be ignored, and the folder icon will be generated without them._ To give you an idea of how it looks and how you can use it,
I've made a video that you can watch it [**Here**](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MT7BZlhRWfI).

# Credits In the end, My role involves is just bringing together the work and ideas of others to bring this project to happend.
- This project was inspired by [Anime Icon Matcher 2018](http://www.mediafire.com/?nv3m231s8h9be) by serenity !29TgfcZgPU, which I used a lots in the past. - This project owes its existence to [ImageMagick](https://github.com/ImageMagick/ImageMagick), the tool that is use to process and edit images. - I utilize the [SingleInstanceAccumulator](https://github.com/Beej126/SingleInstanceAccumulator) by Beej126 to accumulate the selected items in Explorer so it doesn't make a new instance for each selected items. - I use PSD templates by [em1l](https://www.deviantart.com/em1l), [saikuro](https://www.deviantart.com/saikuro), [mauricioestrella](https://www.deviantart.com/mauricioestrella), [90scomics.com](http://www.90scomics.com) and [Jonathan Brimer](https://beoriginal.com/blog/free-folder-icon-photoshop-template) to create all available folder icon templates. - While working on this project, I also drew some inspiration from [FolderIco](http://folderico.com), [Raticon](http://jamedjo.github.io/Raticon) and [Folderify](https://github.com/lgarron/folderify).
