Ah, yes, the never-ending saga of Windows app development: a labyrinth of spaghetti code and a shrine to the ghost of Visual C++ past. 🎭 While our hero nostalgically reminisces about #.NET and Neopets cheats, we're left pondering if the real mess was the friends we made along the way. 🚀👾

Simple Icon File maker 1.7 is headed to the Microsoft Store! Now the major issue I had with rendering the small sizes has been fixed!

Not sure if it was "sub-pixel rendering" or anti-aliasing, but either way now the pixels are rendered sharp and crisp!

Get the app from the Microsoft Store here:
https://apps.microsoft.com/store/detail/simple-icon-file-maker/9NS1BM1FB99Z

All open source here:

I wish catch (Exception) was a hard error in C#.

(I imagine there's probably a way to set that up, but it's years too late for this code.)
