With the new version of the plug-in is it possible to specify a different icon size each time? (on the fly) or do you have to change something in Preferences it will stay at this size?

E.g. ‘Whatever you want to convert’ >Tab> Save as Icon…>Tab> (enters text mode where you’d write something like…) ‘128 jpg’ or ‘256 png’ etc.

Also is it possible for me to alter somewhere in the plug-in plist file so that the the Save Icon As… action saves as JPG as default? (instead of TIFF)
And still keeps PNG as the default format for Save Icon To…

It's a workspace call and it needs a Cocoa app to get at it. Then it needs some clever craftsmanship around that so it works right. And that makes it brilliant in its simplicity. It does not need to save to different formats because you can do that already. As I understand it already does intuitively from the file extension - this is very cool. I'd just like to remind people AK did a nice thing here and we should thank him and there isn't necessarily a 'next thing'.</p> I think the main thing was getting the icon out.
