Due — never forget anything, ever again.
Simple plug-in allows Photoshop to read and write Windows ICO icon format; useful for creating ‘favicon.ico’ files for web sites. Free software licensed under the GPL; developers ask for a $5 PayPal donation. I coughed it up.
(I just used this plug-in to open and re-save my existing favicon.ico file for Daring Fireball, and it cut the file size from 1,400+ bytes to 300+ bytes. If anyone notices that my favicon now looks hinky in their browser, let me know.)
