==== How to make an icon set ====

Making an icon set is very easy, given that you already have icons or know how to make them.

The icon set (*.sip) file is actually a ZIP file that contains icons and one text (*.txt) file, that tells the player how to use the icons.
If you will take an existing icon set, e.g. "Crystal.sip", rename it to "Crystal.zip" and unpack the archive's contents to the "Crystal" folder, you'll see this:

{{:tutorials:other:iconset_dir.png|}}

And here is how the "IconSet.ini" file looks like:

{{:tutorials:other:iconset_ini.png|}}

**NOTE 1:** you can assign one icon to several extensions \\
**NOTE 2:** you can add more extensions (associations) to the list, provided that Spider Player supports them

So simply by using your own icons instead of the ones provided and editing the "IconSet.ini" file, you can make a new icon set.
After you finish, archive the icons and the "IconSet.ini" file back to ZIP, e.g. "MyIconSet.zip". Then rename the archive to "MyIconSet.sip". You are done!
