Can someone explain to me how to change an icon? I have Marble Blast Emerald here on my desktop/taskbar and the its icon both in an icon file and a PNG file and I don't know how to convert it.
If there's an icon for every downloadable Marble Blast (complete or incomplete), please, tell me about them, or give me a link if it's a page.

Call me Chris!

Good luck, there's always some funky stuff regarding icons -- I usually don't bother. I think the scheme varies between OS's as well.

It's just annoying to have 9 different Marble Blast with the same icon on my taskbar. :P

You mention a taskbar, so I assume you're on Windows. In that case, the program Resource Hacker will be of some use to you. You can use it to open the Marble Blast EXE file and replace the .ico. There are probably countless tutorials on how to use this (it's not hard to figure out). I've also done it multiple times, so you can let me know if you need help.

Moved thread to the Support Board. Unfortunately, whirligig is correct as the icon is affiliated with the final application package - the only way to modify its contents will be to use a third party piece of software that can directly manipulate the package contents. If you're still up to the challenge, the application whirligig mentioned should do the trick.

Let us know how it works out!
