Then I put those four images into an .ico file using imagemagick's convert command, as described at http://www.imagemagick.org/discourse-server/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=14080. Then, I specified that icon file in my spec file and generated a new executable. And...I still just get the default pyinstaller icon rather than my icon. Sigh. I don't think it's relevant, but the four png files add up to about 73K, but the resulting icon file from 'convert' is 359k! That's a lot of overhead. I tried setting Debug=True, but that only applies to the runtime executable, not the build stage. Is there any other way to see why it's not taking the icon? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "PyInstaller" group.
